I got a couple I loved the event very greatful to Sephora for doing it I just wish it was more clear of how it went and I was so excited I asked for samples at the counter I am always a little shy. Overall it was good I was happy to go! It’s out of my

comfort zone I like to stay home a lot haha ❤️ @Buootiful

Been in a huge MIA mode.. It's been so busy with the second job AND GUYS, I'm in escrow 🫡

Lovely choices @jaaayp !! Yes to your blush shades!! Red! 😍 (also new red Chanel Franc you maybe need to see! Lol) Plus escrow too?! That’s a lot. Glad you had some time for some pampering! 

[jaaayp]

Thank you @Sunnysmom yes! It is a lot but I'm finding like little pockets of rest time and I really am trying to get back to BIC. I miss you guys 🥹 so I think the Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Cheek Tint 41 Flaming Red is a miss. It blends out to like... a deep 🍒 ? Which is like so misleading. I think I tried it almost everyday since purchase and ehhhh. It's also SO pigmented that even one little dab on the cheeks = I look like I have a fever 😂😂😂

[Sunnysmom]

Always makes my day to see you appear on BIC @jaaayp ! 🥰 Glad if any time works out! That’s disappointing about the blush! Isn’t it interesting how the slightest little color modification can matter with our skin?! Sheesh. I guess it gives you a fun little hobby to keep up the search?! 🤓 (I have many blush that if I go too 🤡 I will end up completely feverish! Or sunburnt and not in a good way!! 😭) Enjoy your new home and trip! 💞

[jaaayp]

Thanks @Sunnysmom 🥰 I'm starting to think that maybe it's my undertone that's preventing me to find a "red" blush. I'm looking for "flushed" looking 🤔 but I'm realizing terracotta works well for me but doesn't give me the desired look... 🤔🤔🤔

[Sunnysmom]

I get that @jaaayp . Did you ever try that little Chanel No 1 Lip and Cheek Balm in 1 Red? Did we discuss? I’ve done some mixing with them and get some pretty good results too! I wonder what the new Chanel blush in Radiant or Franc would do. 🤔 Check it out sometime on your searches! 💞

[jaaayp]

Will do @Sunnysmom ! I'm starting to think powder blush is the way to go.. I feel like cream always blends out a little different...? 🤔

[Sunnysmom]

That is a good thought @jaaayp ! Maybe so! 

[ather]

@jaaayp  Eeeeeek escrow! That second job is keeping you super busy. I never get to see you on here. Although I have been MIA also. Just summer busy tho. 

amazing haul! Look at all those blush colours!! 

[jaaayp]

It really is @ather 🥹 I know. I'm doing a terrible job. I also hate this app on Android so that definitely doesn't help. Trying to fight the app while I'm tired, I give up LOL but I'm gonna really try to catch up. I always take pictures thinking I'm gonna upload and barely make it. 

Sigh.

How's your summer been? Sounds busy?! Have you gone on your trips already? I think I missed out on the travel thread... 🫠

[ather]

@jaaayp  Awww darn. I have an apple and I find if I just clear my cookies it works! But I use the web not the app. The app drives me nuts. 

I have gone on my trips! Just got back from one today! The big city had the world’s largest bouncy castle today. It was so fun! Although I’m already feeling so sore. I’m not sure I will be able to walk tomorrow. Send help! When is your next trip? Did you leave for the cruise? 🚢 

[jaaayp]

Ohhhh. Yes. Makes sense. Maybe I should start going on the web and forgo the phone.. although.. I feel like the phone convenience aspect makes me get on here more easily and often...

You already got back?! Oooh, I hope you had a lovely time!!! 😍😍😍 I always say, you need a vacation after a vacation (AKA lounging in sweats with snacks in front of TV playing 🥔)

I'm going soon, end of this month. I'm actually getting keys to my new home in 2 weeks so it'll be crazy busy moving, cleaning, getting things ready for my new tenants blah blah blah and then off on a cruise I go where I will do nothing but relax 😂 I'm definitely gonna contribute my minimalism to the travel thread and tag you guys @ather @itsfi I think it'll be a little more full than normal as it'll be winter clothes... but makeup will be minimal as always!

[ather]

@jaaayp  Yay!!! Keys to the new place that’s awesome!!! Congratulations!!! Are you renting the new place out or the old place? 

I can’t wait to hear all about your vacation!!! Oooo packing winter gear will be interesting!! Do you have to pack boots too? How cold will it be? 

Today has been sorta a couch potato day well as much as you can with a 6 year old. Tomorrow should also be one since he’s getting some teeth pulled out tomorrow and I promised him a video game day. I will probably end up cleaning and organizing and getting his bag for school ready. But it will be relatively relaxing!! ☺️ 

[curlychiquita]

Beautiful colors, @jaaayp! I love your new makeup. Good luck with the second job! 

[jaaayp]

Thank you @curlychiquita really appreciate it 🙏 😊 

[AznAngelLiz]

OMG congrats on getting into escrow @jaaayp How exciting! Great haul to celebrate and I love the swatches.

[jaaayp]

Hehe thank you @AznAngelLiz ! It's exciting, keys in 2 weeks! I'm not gonna lie though, it's like the 3rd time I'm in escrow so it's not as exciting LOL and I'm also like kinda waiting for everything to be done and over with! So ungrateful but I'm just exhausted 😩 love the blushes tho. Not all but some are definitely heavy hitters!

[CookieGirl1]

@jaaayp yay,  you finally picked up Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Cheek Tint 41 Flaming Red !  I know it's been on your list for a minute 🙂

[jaaayp]

YAAAAS @CookieGirl1 but unfortunately, after many attempts, I think it's going back. It comes off really pink/cherry vs red (I'm really looking for red). Sigh. The search continues!

[CookieGirl1]

@jaaayp aww, bummer!
