@CynthieLu @Titian06 it's a very crummy system having to start over each time you click on something from the sales page.  What I've taken to doing is adding the items I'm potentially interested in to my loves list, then looking at them from my love list so I don't have to keep reloading.   Of course, that assumes I can add them to my loves list.  I had trouble today.   I also had issues recently with adding other products to my loves, like some Kerastase; the heart either wouldn't activate or wouldn't stay activated.

Spending so much on a product only for it to and have air bubbles in it. It doesn’t look like a lot in the picture but it’s not picking up in all the little ones too. Low key giving me trypophobia 😭

@s0fiia awww, is it applying smoothly?  The temptation is there to warm it up and gently smush the bubbles out….

I hate it when my favorite tinted moisturizer is caking…. *sad

 

[heartsmyface]

@giegiepeachie A tinted moisturizer shouldn’t even be thick enough to cake.  Yeah that’s definitely bad.   Have you tried making your own tinted moisturizers by adding a little of your best matching foundation to moisturizer?  The better the match the less likely you’ll be to notice caking if it occurs.

When I can't remember if I tried a product or not!  Can't remember if I tried Good Molecules niacinamide or if I tried Essence Bye Bye Panda Eyes tubing mascara.

@greeneyedgirl107 @Oh I’ve had this happen!  I used to remember everything I had tried and took pride in it and now I find myself not remembering.  I guess that’s what happens when we want to try everything.  

[greeneyedgirl107]

@heartsmyface Oh yes!

[itsfi]

100% with you on this @greeneyedgirl107; definitely a pet peeve. 😞

[greeneyedgirl107]

@itsfi I think Ulta makes it a little difficult.  I stopped writing reviews b/c it was too hard to manage them, as they don't keep track on your account of what you posted on.  Of course, I don't think Sephora has been doing much better -- can we even access our Sephora reviews again?

[SportyGirly125]

@greeneyedgirl107 @itsfi I can see my reviews on the Sephora app. 

[sister13]

@greeneyedgirl107 Agree with @SportyGirly125 , I realized I can both post reviews and see my last 20 or so reviews if I go in through the app. Neither is possible in desktop or mobile browser.

 Of course, the app is useless for Community participation so it brings up that pet peeve, lol! Still, because the review process can be so hit or miss, I’ve taken to writing my reviews completely in Notes, then copy over to the review page. 

[itsfi]

@greeneyedgirl107, it’s a challenge not being able to search for your reviews. It would be great to be able to access them again; I know it’s being worked on. I try to keep track of products I review but some days are better than others. 

[greeneyedgirl107]

Went to Kohl's + Sephora today, and so many testers were MIA!

[GraysieJ]

When I out of sunscreen on my face and then concealer, and then later you look in a mirror and it’s peeling off! I hate this so muchhhhh!

[heartsmyface]

@GraysieJ This tends to happen when you’ve applied too thick a layer and the outer layer dries leaving the product underneath still moist.  Try thinner layers- especially with concealer in the mobile areas of your face where cracking and peeling is more likely to occur. 

[Jenna2024]

When I do my lashes last and the mascara gets all over my makeup and then I have to take 15 extra minutes to redo one part of my makeup.

[heartsmyface]

@Jenna2024   Sucha pain.  Take a fine tipped makeup brush or a bullet brush and dip it in makeup remover and swirl the tip over the smudge.  Then use your beauty blender to bounce over the area you just tended to.  It can save you a lot of time. 

[CorgiMommy]

@Jenna2024 the struggle is real 

[peculiarzmakeup]

So relatable!!! @Jenna2024

Went go to use my highlighter for the second time and it completely melted which is confusing because it’s always cold where I am. It’s still useable with brush but was just surprising to see. 😕
