I was back East in April for a couple conferences, so here’s a few pics from my trip to DC, Baltimore, Philly and New York. It was a whirlwind, so not the greatest pics but I figured I’d share anyway!DC - I missed the peak cherry season, but a few were still blooming. These are paperwhites from my mom’s.I think this is a crabapple, I love it! Made it to two Sephoras, Pentagon City and then Christiana mall in Delaware on the way up to Philly. Driving to Baltimore, I could see the after math of the Key Bridge collapse! Had dinner with my cousin at this cute creekside restaurant in Maryland, and had some amazing Maryland crab dip. Philly skyline. I went to college here. NYC skyline! I had such a packed schedule and I was in and out of here so fast, I had 0 sightseeing pics. But I was thinking of the SEPHORiA trip the whole time!

Thank you sweets! 😊 @Samtian

Oh, you can pass on it @WinglessOne . The claim there's a shade for everyone is .... questionable. It runs a bit orange, so I'm hoping once I tan up it'll be less discernable. I don't know if the orange shows, but it's there. It's not so bad that I'll return it, but I definitely wouldn't repurchase it. Kind of sad to hear neither option really works when they should, it claim they should.

@PMaitri you have to work for the products. It doesn’t just get sent to you right away. You have to read the guidelines on the site of what to do. They usually have daily task or reviews they want you to do.

Oh yes I own tower 28 blushes @Mellmars1185 🙂 so the Mario ones that I own are powder and the tower 28 is cream. The tower 28 is VERY emollient and kinda stay dewy (I don't think they set on their own) vs the MAKEUP BY MARIO Soft Pop Powder Blush Desert Rose is powder so its once it's on, it's on. I like both but I think generally the tower 28 shades are a lot more.. vibrant? Vs the Mario's are muted shades

Your sooooo welcome your replies and comments mean so much your kindness has made me feel so welcome in the community and I can’t wait to continue my BIC journey thank you once again for the kindness

@Ageless50, a lot powder products have been reformulated recently to remove talc. I'm not sure if that's the only ingredient change, but it was a primary one I think.

Ooh yes to those ones! @greeneyedgirl107 The new YSL would be so nice too try. 😍

That is sooo good
