Well luckily I haven't been making a special trip, just stopping in when I go to the farmer's market, because it's on the same street. 🙂

I'm just bummed because I've never had this much trouble in past years, and the sales associates are very vague about if/when they'll be getting any additional supplies.

And I still don't understand why it has to be in store only! I feel bad for any rewards members that don't live near a store - they'll never be able to get their birthday freebie!

Glad to have this safe space for venting! 🙂

@jriskus,

 I got my birthday present online.  I've never been inside a Sephora.  Has something changed?

[Samtian]

@tsavorite She is talking about Ulta 🙂

[tsavorite]

Oh, whoops!  Thank you, @Samtian! 

[jriskus]

Another reason why I tend to prefer Sephora, even though I like the Ulta rewards program better! 😉

Thanks, ladies!

Mr. Big 🙂  I'm a Sex and the City fan.  I'd go ga-ga over Sex and the City themed makeup collection.

All I want is the Wet n Wild unicorn brush and the shipping at Ulta costs more than the brush itself. 🙃

[JayJayyy]

This post is too real! I'm always trying to force my money down Ulta's throats like a used car salesman but that shipping fee is like "nah girl, you're too good for this. Keep your coins"

[ZombieMetroAnt]

yeah, that's pretty annoying @myumew

but they do have a 20% off coupon on their site

>Also, if you have a min $10 purchase from their Hair Event, you get free shipping

just a thought

[Tamara76]

Ohhhhhh!!!! That Monoi Hair Mask is lovely!   I need to add that to my next Ulta order..... 

[myumew]

Thank you for the helpful suggestions @ZombieMetroAnt! Going to go browse their hair stuff now 😇

Well, no Hawaii for us.  Instead we're dedicating this time to house hunting.  Our place is up for sale (well sorta sold) and we're looking for a house with more room. Two months to go.   Exciting times....yet....I'm having great anxiety about packing my makeup.  I'm so scared it's going to get misplaced/lost/broken/stolen. I've go pink duct tape to clearly mark my boxes, more bubble wrap than is likely necessary...and stress.  Lots of stress.  My pretties!😫  I've sworn to not let them outta my sight, lol, am I being ridiculous? 

[Tamara76]

Not ridiculous at all! 

I moved a lot growing up and I can't tell you how many irreplaceable things went missing  during overseas moves, including all of our Christmas ornaments (several of which were passed down to my mom from her great-grandparents, grandparents, etc...).  I definitely understand your stress!  Definitely hand carry the most precious of your beauties packed in a ton of bubble wrap.

Also - Sorry to hear Hawaii didn't pan out.  😞  

Good luck with the house hunt!   @heartsmyface

[blackkitty2014]

Or you can always buy a place in Hawaii 😉 Good luck with the house hunting @heartsmyface

[lmi82]

Definitely not @heartsmyface! I'd be heartbroken if any of my makeup was damaged or lost during a move. It's a really good idea to use pink duct tape to mark the boxes. It would also a good idea to make an inventory of what goes in each box and the total number of boxes. 

Also, sorry that you're not going to make it Hawaii!

When you make an order to get the promo... And, Sephora decides to take the promo out of your order ( 100 pt per as well ) due to oos inventory... But, both things are actually still available!!! Why in the world would they do that?!

[Magrathea]

Update: Katie to the rescue! My promo is on its way to me now! Yaaay! Thank you @KatieBT !

[somegirl123]

Wanting to make a purchase which is $1 off from GWP buy-in and there aren't any sharpeners or other add-ons 😞

[Madeline7]

The anastasia 4pan eyeshadow palettes are $1 🙂

[makeupobesessed]

or need an add-on to avoid shipping charges...

YouTube sponsored pr packaging/products. I'm getting so annoyed by the the nice packaging these pr products are coming in. Like wait🤔. Hold up. I'm spending my hard earned cash on these products but influencers are getting different packaging and exclusive sets for free. For what? They rave about the products to drive up sales and then bash the brand a few videos later. The one that annoyed me the most is the nyx/farsali pr box that's only for these ppl. Like huh?!! How is this going to make me what to buy crap from these brands. I'm over it.
