I was on a 12 week no buy a couple of years ago @tjffc . I received an email from Sephora with a 20% off code about a month after the sale. I am proud to say that I did not take advantage of the sale at the time. I am going to try another low buy.

Thank you @tjffc (I hear you on the no-buy struggle: I've stayed out of the weekly mask thread for a couple months to help me not buy more sheet masks, but I've given up on a lipstick no-buy) and

The Otherland candles look and sound like they will smell amazing, @WinglessOne!

[AznAngelLiz]

@WinglessOne Ooooohhhhh, those candles look so pretty 😍 and that Rephr #5 😍😍😍. I need to look into these candles now. 

[itsfi]

@WinglessOne, Rephr has been having some nice sales lately. Agree, Chikuhodo Z-4 would be a tough one to beat.

The candles are gorgeous!! @WinglessOne

@WinglessOne   Rephyr 23 looks like, among other uses, it would be great for crease work.

@WinglessOne Great haul!  I love the packaging on the candles.  They just look so full of life for spring!

[Loretta55]

Those candles look interesting @WinglessOne. Unfortunately I have to be careful with any fragrances due to my husband’s sensitivities. Great hauls!

@WinglessOne Lovely brush, candles, and deoderant haul! 😍

[haleyvvvv]

Amazing haul, @WinglessOne!! I just got brushes 05 and 16, but your pictures inspired me to grab 17, 21 and 23. 23 reminds me of the Wayne Goss 05, which I've been loving. Enjoy your goodies!!

[WinglessOne]

Thanks @haleyvvvv ! I don’t have Wayne’s 05 pencil (neither the old nor new version) but, judging by product photos, its brush head looks bigger than the Rephr 23. The Rephr 23 is now my smallest pencil brush, excluding my Koyudo Yoshiki series precise brushes that are really more for lining than smudging/smoking… eh, those 2 aren’t true pencil brushes. 

L-R: Rephr 23, Koyudo Yoshiki-005 S, Koyudo Yoshiki-004 M, Chikuhodo Z-10, MAC 219S (yeah, it’s dirty).L: Rephr 23. R: Rephr 03.

Oooh, thank you for the comparison, @WinglessOne!! I think it was maybe more the shape, because I just compared the WG05 and rēphr03 and they're definitely the same size, length wise 🤦‍♀️😅

(Sorry, they're dirty, I wash all my brushes on Sundays).

I like then both, but the Wayne Goss seems to work better. I dunno, the rēphr 3 just seemed a little too big for ease on my under eye.

@WinglessOne ,

Your new brushes look lovely!  I hope that you will really like them!

@Ispend2much6 Great haul! Gotta love MAC!

[Ispend2much6]

@tjffc   Thanks- it's even easier to love with a great discount. 🙂

[curlychiquita]

I love that Ultramarine color, @Ispend2much6!

[Ispend2much6]

@curlychiquita   I was thinking of using it as a liner and outer lid shade with the taupe- what do you think? 🙂

[curlychiquita]

I think it would look great, @Ispend2much6!

@Ispend2much6 Loving all the MAC products! Great haul!
