Even though its tempting...please continue to use the August thread till September 1.
As always, happy haulin' y'all!๐๐๐๐๐
@WinglessOne, the color is gorgeous!! I have 12, and it's pretty. A blind buy that kinda worked, given the swatches barely tell you what it looks like. I feel like it's on par with the Velvets, and agree with you about the price. I keep looking at number 4, and would only get it for a really good GWP, if I needed to. (Needed to ..? Send help )
Also, had no idea they break so easily. I think I got mine during the cooler months, so that tracks.
Thanks @danielledanielle ! Ah, you got the shade I first wanted; 12 was OOS when I ordered. Shade 4, 3, 12, and 11 are on my Dior wishlist, but I doubt Iโll buy any of โem unless I figure out how to make this formula act right without having to do too much extra work. Though I do totally relate to needing to buy one to get a really good GWP someday. ๐คฃ I mean, if the GWP offsets some of the refillโs overvalued price, then thereโs really no problem! (And no, thatโs not โgirl math.โ Itโs Dior math. ๐)
My Velvets (new formula) feel better on my lips than the Premier I bought. Theyโre not hydrating or moisturizing and do still feel like mattes, but theyโre a bit less drying than the Premier formula. Eh, my lips are just very fussy about dryness. The Velvet formula does make the Premiers seem even more overpriced to me, in terms of comfort and performance.
@WinglessOne, I'm dying at Dior Math. That definitely beats girl math.
Here's to hoping for fantastic holiday GWP ๐ฅ๐
Great Haul! I love that the refillable works, and you found a way too help with the products stand alone dryness, comfort is so important and it looks very lovely on you! The detail is so neat! I also think itโs nice when brands give a backstory for the inspiration of their shades or stories behind products. @WinglessOne โค๏ธ๐
Thanks @peculiarzmakeup ! Yeah, I regularly wear lip balm (Aquaphor Ointment) under most of my lipsticks because my lips are just chronically dry. So Iโd have worn balm under this Dior lipstick even if it wasnโt a drying formula. ๐ Iโm surprised this oneโs still a bit drying even atop Aquaphor, though. Hopefully I can tweak it enough to reduce or stop that drying effect though.
I appreciate you sharing that hack Iโve been experiencing that with my lipsticks a lot lately Iโm definatley gonna try that. Iโm glad it makes it workout a bit more ๐ @WinglessOne
@WinglessOne Well that's a bummer. It looks amazing on you!
Thanks @Samtian ! Hopefully I can make it behave better with some tweaking.
@WinglessOne Itโs too bad about the performance on your Dior lippie, but the shade looks lovely on you. I recently got a Shiseido lipstick (First Bite) and it is a red that also has some gold reflects in it like yours. Wasnโt sure I was going to like it, as Iโm not so into sparkles anymore, but itโs subtle enough that I do!
Thanks @Guessgal ! Gosh, itโs been a few years since I last bought a Shiseido lipstickโฆ noting to self to take a look at their current lineup. First Bite sounds lovely; glad you like it! Even those of us still into shiny sparkly things appreciate a subtle shimmer, too. ๐
@WinglessOne Wow that is so pretty on you. Love the star on the bottom of the refill.
Thank you @SportyGirly125 ! Iโm glad Dior was thoughtful enough to make their haute couture lipstick refill look like a standalone lipstick in its own gold case.
Sephora Sale & Points Haul
Wanted to get this up before the sale ends. VOLUSPA Mini Candle Set is on sale (about 43.5% off). I saw this set was available at one of my local stores. Picked up 2 - one to gift to a friend ๐; one to gift to ... me! ๐ I would purchase more but don't want to order online as we're expecting a heat wave this week and this will surely melt in transport. Edited 9.3.2024 to add - seems like this is still on sale but the discount is not as great (sale price went from $27 to $36).
Also picked up Sephora Favorites Travel Spray Perfume Discovery Set - I'm pretty sure I'll redeem it for the The 7 Virtues Coconut Sun Eau de Parfum Travel Spray 0.34 oz / 10 ml eau de parfum spray - you're so right, @Buootiful, it's such a lovely coconut scent.
Decided to pick up a few samples of the PATRICK TA Major Skin Hydra-Luxe Luminous Skin Perfecting Foundation For Natural Glow even though I have no business purchasing more foundation. ๐ Let's see how well of a shade match I can get @makeitup305. This could be an easy pass or something to add to the list for the next sales event.
@itsfi awesome haul! Great deal on those Voluspa sets - if I didn't have candles coming out of my ears at the moment, I might be tempted, lol ๐คฃ they are a great brand. I too am intrigued by the Patrick Ta new foundation, though I also don't need any foundation at the moment. Will be interested to hear your thoughts on it! I hope you enjoy everything!
@caitbird, I like the consistency / texture of the product. The challenge for me is finding the right shade; I think I'll have better luck in late fall / early winter. My plan is to try a couple different shades again then, with the hope that I'll have worked through some of my already open foundations by that time ๐ค๐
@itsfi ah, shade matching, the struggle is real! Hope you're able to find a shade that works for you! I will be holding off on buying this one for now (since again, I don't need any more foundations at the moment), but will add it to my short list of possibilities to try when I've worked through one or two that I have.
@faeriegirl, thank you; everything has worked out well with this bunch.
Nifty gift idea with the candles @itsfi ! I forget about the perfume samplers. Smart!
@Sunnysmom, perfume samplers can make for fab gifts - for those who love fragrance as well as those who prefer just having a small handful of full size perfumes.
@itsfi how do you like the Patrick Ta foundation?
