Lashes for days @lmaster ! 🥰 I think the new Huda looks so good, I can’t wait for the new highlighter to show up. I hope anyway. 

[lmaster]

Getting the Dyson airwrap for sure. Along with sunscreen from supergoop, moisturizer from first aid and a few makeup products I wanted to try. 😁

I think I have settled on the following:

 

Nothing overly exciting… just some replenishments and upgraded skin care (it might be time to introduce an anti-aging eye cream now that I’m significantly in to my 30’s…). There are also some items in the Rewards Bazaar I’m going to add. As much as I wanna buy up all sorts of fun stuff, my days of buying fun stuff for fun are over haha. I still always look forward to this sale though!

Do you know what time the sale starts for Rouge members? I waited until 12am thinking it would start then but it says the code isn’t valid yet 😞

[curlychiquita]

It's 12am Pacific Daylight Time.

[makeitup305]

@NattyyyP it starts on Friday, so midnight tomorrow should work.

I'm going to have to shrink this more, maybe by half but it's so hard! I may have to tell my husband that I'll help him shop for me this year. LOL.

[Sol9999]

Oh! I have gucci flora gardenia in mine as well 😍 loved the sample... My basket is too big, i need to cut 😂😂

[missy94612]

@Sol9999 

It's so hard to take things out of the basket. I can't pick! 😂

[lmaster]

Ok this is what I've committed to... So far 😆

#sephorasale

Loved my Dr. Brandt Skincare Liquid Sun Shield Daily Brightening Mineral Face Sunscreen SPF 50 1.7 oz/ 50 mL What a great sun screen, bottle lasted way longer than expected. Time for a re-up.

Can’t miss an opportunity to stock up on Grande Cosmetics GrandeLASH - MD Lash Enhancing Serum .067 oz / 2 mL and Grande Cosmetics GrandeBROW Brow Enhancing Serum 4 Month Supply staples. As well as my HG eye product belif Moisturizing Eye Bomb

One skincare product I want to try is the Youth To The People Dream Eye Cream with Vitamin C and Ceramides 0.5 oz/ 15 mL 

Enjoy the sale! 

[deaexmachina]

The Dr.Brandt sunscreen is my favorite! I ordered the summer collection that included a full size twice!  It was a deal at $45, but I would definitely pay full price for that sunscreen.

[itscarin]

@deaexmachina @zaneb FYI, I just saw that select Dr. Brandt items are 50% off and thought of this thread.  In case you're interested, it's at gmadeals
