The Sephora Holiday Savings Event starts off this month with its usual bang. โจ We are excitedly waiting too see what treasures we all scored during this wonderful event! ๐
Gifts for our friends, loved ones and of course a little (or a lot ๐) of selfcare items are set to be arriving at our doors.
What did you haul this month?? ๐ค๐
๐๏ธ๐๐๏ธ
Any other November babies here? Happy Birthday to all of you!! ๐๐๐ November may bring cooler temperatures, rain or even snow but we're here to celebrate all of you and all your birthday hauls! ๐
This month might see some fun savings, maybe a few of us have started our holiday shopping early? ๐ฒโญ
We can't wait to see it all,
Happy Hauling Everyone!
@SportyGirly125 I know, @eshoe is the one who got me hooked on the Mermaid Mask.
All of her masks are amazing, @CookieGirl1 @SportyGirly125. Good enough to probably even convert a non-masker!
Youโll have to share how well the air freshener lasts, @SportyGirly125. I was eyeing that!
@eshoe I opened it up yesterday and it smells so good. We shall see how long it lasts.
Longevity is such an issue with almost anything worth having in the air, @SportyGirly125 ๐
@eshoe The air freshener stayed strong for 3 weeks but now the scent is slowly fading.
@SportyGirly125 @thank you for remembering me โบ๏ธ I was literally just thinking about this yesterday as I need to replace my freshener. Good to know!
@eshoe @Will do. I love that it was part of the gwp.
Went on a mask haul earlier this month. A couple wash off masks, some hair masks, a few sheet masks, a sprinkling of luxe masks, and a handful of skincare from around the globe - Paris, Korea, Japan, the U.S. My hair and face should be all set for the coming winter; my wallet surely agrees. ๐ฌ๐
The acropass patch was inspired by @heartsmyface - can't remember if this is the exact brand she has used in the past, but going to give it a go. I've tried something similar from Dr. Jart, maybe, and it didn't stick like I hoped it would. We'll see how these turn out. ๐ค
Clarins Cryo-Flash Instant Lift Effect & Glow Boosting Face Mask 2.5 oz / 75 g
Shani Darden Skin Care Signature Nourishing Facial Mask with Squalane 2.1 oz / 60 ml
Virtue COLORKICKยฎ Color-Illuminating & Hydrating Mask for All Hair Shades 5 oz / 150 ml
UPDATE: Elizavecca Cer-100 Collagen Coating Hair Protein Treatment
@ather @faeriegirl, I used this over the weekend and am pleasantly surprised by how well it performed. This treatment is very affordably price at under $8. That said, when I say it performed well, I mean it performed well period. Not that it performed well for its price point; the results I got were better than some results I've gotten with far pricier hair treatments / masks.
It's a lightweight lotion, more similar to a conditioner than a cream mask. It's meant to be applied along the length of the hair and the ends, but not the crown. I can work it through my hair easily and after rinsing it out after 10 minutes, my hair feels soft and smooth. Of late, my hair, particularly the ends, has been more dry and frizzy, with knots at the end. Just using this one time, the length and ends were smooth, felt soft and moisturized, and looked healthy, without tangles or knots, even after being out and about all day. I wasn't really expecting that but am happy with the results.
The tube is on the smaller side but it is less than $8 and it's not something I'd incorporate into my hair care routine too frequently. I was thinking about the best way to fit this into my hair routine and I can see this working well as a monthly treatment coinciding with when I reach for a detox or clarifying shampoo for my scalp / crown.
It really has been working well for me @ather. Today is the second full day after using it and my ends still look good - I can't completely run my fingers from my hair without some snags and knots at the ends, but that may very likely be due to having used product on the ends, including hair spray, as I've curled my hair both days. No frizzies though! I'm going to use Kรฉrastase Nutritive 8H Magic Night Serum Hydrating Treatment for Dry Hair 3.04 oz / 90 ml on my crown tonight and amika Perk Up Talc-Free Dry Shampoo tomorrow morning to see if that combo will get me to a third full day without washing my hair, even while curling it.
@itsfi Wow this one sounds great!! I will have to keep it on my radar!!
@itsfi awesome mask haul! Hope they all work well for you! Love your aesthetic photos as always. You inspire me to try and improve my own haul pics!
omg, that is very sweet of you to say @caitbird, and what a compliment! Iโm blushing. Thank you! ๐ฅฐ The best way to progress on haul pics is to haul and take & post pics!! ๐๏ธ ๐ธ I have set ups that Iโm more comfortable with and others that I want to do so Iโll try something different when I can.
If you have time, take a peek at https://community.sephora.com/t5/Makeup-Is-Life/A-Year-of-Beauty-Photography-Challenge-Year-2/m-p/61.... Lots of good techniques. There are a few of us that post consistently to it, both pics and comments / feedback, and others join as they want. Iโve learned so much just by reading up on the different techniques and themes @Samtian puts together. I will go back to them for various pics that I have posted on BIC.
@itsfi I'll definitely have to check that thread out, thank you! I love taking pictures and I always want to improve my skills.
@caitbird, it's a fun thread, with a variety of things to be learned. I often go back to a past month / theme and look through what I did and what others posted, including the comments about tips and techniques, and I'll do another take of that month's theme / focus / lesson. It's interesting to see what, if anything, has changed in terms of my shots, how I see things, angles, editing, etc. Always something to improve upon, always something to learn. It's good stuff! ๐
What do you use for your photos? smartphone? digital camera? both?
@itsfi so far I exclusively use my smartphone (I think it's a Samsung S8?) for pictures. I do have a DSLR camera, but I am only just starting to learn how to use it. I am a little intimidated by it to be honest ๐ how about you? What kind of camera/phone do you use?
@caitbird, I use an iPhone X for most of my photos on BIC. Itโs what Iโm used to. ๐ท I have upgraded to an iPhone 13 mini but am still working through the phone settings on that one, so I still rely on the camera on my old phone.
I can appreciate your comment about being intimidated by a DLSR. Itโs great that you have both types of cameras ๐ธ Will be interested to hear about your experiences with both when you do use both for photos.
