I think maybe why happens is that different products work for different skin types..ya know? So I think, don’t get too frustrated.

Maybe I’m counting the shipping days incorrectly, but I’m frustrated that I pay for flash shipping and it tells me it takes 4 days, from the moment the order is processed. I ordered in the very early hours on Thursday, but it won’t reach me until Tuesday. How is this 2 day shipping? My amazon prime orders actually come in two days, and if they don’t, I am updated about it.

Sadly, Flash is a myth for many, myself included. Most of my orders take 5-7 days to show up. It's worth it for dropping the requirement to spend $50, but not if you actually expect speedier delivery.

Prime became a myth for me too though...it was awesome years ago, but as they started offering more and better delivery options to the super-massive metro areas, service to my area (which is still large and quite populous, but it's not making any Top 25 or 50 or possibly even 100 largest cities lists) went all to heck and back. Prime became 3 and 4 days, if I was lucky. I finally dropped it since I can get slow shipping for free and not be annoyed at how much I spent for mythical "2 day delivery" that didn't exist anymore. 😞

[ParrotTulips]

Oh no I’m sorry. That stinks that even Prime delivery is a joke for you. So far Prime has worked our well for me but I wasn’t sure if I was doing the whole Flash shipping thing incorrectly. I guess now I have to start ordering on Mondays only and see if that helps. Thanks for letting me know it’s not just me.

Eh, I was actually happy to hop off the Amazon bandwagon. I hated the price hike to $79, I got out around the time it hit $99 and now it's going to $119? Nooooo way...so glad I cut that out. I do the occasional Subscribe & Save deal, but other than that, Amazon gets next to no money from me anymore. Yay 😛

It's definitely not just you with the Flash Shipping. It used to be pretty good, but around this time last year, Sephora changed something up in their warehouses and it all went downhill. Samples, handling time, shipping, packaging...it's all been iffy for a year or so now 😞

The Ordinary is pulling out of Sephora and moving to Ulta (according to comments posted by them on their own Instagram). I have been checking for MONTHS to try some things from them that I didn’t *need* but would add to an order if I was buying something else. By the time i finally decide I’m going to buy whatever I can since everything is always out of stock, they’re totally gone from my loves list!!

[HazelEyedQueen]

@KeriCherryDee @fieldsofclover The same thing happened for me. I kept waiting for things to come back in stock and they didn't. Then, I got a notification that they were back, went to make my purchase, and they were completely gone from the site. I did, finally, get to order my products. I purchased them from Beautylish and I love them!

[fieldsofclover]

Ya, I was surprised everything poofed from my loves list so fast. I think it must have been a bitter breakup, because Sephora has not wasted any time stuffing The Ordinary down the memory hole... 🕳️

I can't with this site anymore. The r-re-rel-relo-reloa-reload-reloadi-reloadin-reloading x 400 to open a post just to reply is causing premature wrinkles. Get the freaking site fixed Sephora!!!!!

[pocketvenus]

I know what you mean @GG84! The trick I tried that works for me is hitting the Sign Out link as the site is reloading. You have to be really quick on the draw! Once you've signed out, you can sign back in again?

@GG84  Me with computer all weekend on Sephora:

[curlychiquita]

@GG84, this is the first time in 2 days I could log in and I had to use a private browser setting.

[keana1]

@GG84 This site goes berserk pretty often 🤪

[MachynesSister]

Me too @GG84! I've hardly been able to post anything for months!

[fieldsofclover]

I just got an email. Now I'm peeved.

[Luvstravel]

All my Loves under their brand has been deleted. Sometimes their computer that generates these emails needs a bigger brain 😄

[Aaliaa]

I wonder if thats a mistake. When you search the brand it says not carried. @fieldsofclover

When my skin suddenly decides to randomly freak out! I still don't know what happened this morning - I did my normal morning routine, with the same products I have been using for at like the last 6-8 weeks and some for longer and all of a sudden my face felt like it was on fire. I washed it off of course and my face was bright red. So random. 

[GQisland]

I completely understand!😖 Same routine, same eating habits - I don’t get it. 😩 Must be the environment or hormonal for me, it’s so frustrating!!!!!!!

[makeitup305]

I've gained some weight in the past couple of months and I feel like my face has lost all definition. I feel like a potato. Thank god for contour sometimes.
