Learning our A, B, C's: The Sephora BIC Beauty Edition

[itsfi]

Hey BIC, we're one week into the new year! Winter break is just about over for a lot of kids with many heading back to the classroom tomorrow (Monday) or soon, if they haven't already started back up. Thought I'd bring back a fun, favorite game from a few years ago with school picking back up. This will be a little lesson in Learning our  A, B, C's: The BIC Beauty Edition.

WHAT ARE WE DOING?:

* Basically, we will be going through the alphabet with beauty products, with the applicable letter being either (1) the first letter in the brand's name or (2) the first letter of the product's name. 

     - For example, for A - A can be for amika Soulfood Nourishing Hair Mask  (A = Amika) or A can be for Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray Jumbo 8.11 oz / 240 mL  (A = All Nigher Spray)

     - The next person will tag a product or brand that begins with B and then the next person will tag a product/brand that begins with C, then D, E, F, .... until we get to Z, and then we start over again! 

HOW TO PLAY:

* Look for the most recent comment to the original post

* Take your turn, by hitting "Reply" to original post and replying directly to that  main post (and not to the most recent comment)

* In your reply, be sure to:

    -- tag the product with the hashtag - #<<type name of product>>

    -- tag the person you are replying to with @ + the user name of the most recent comment

* When we get through the alphabet, we'll start over again with "A"

* There will be items repeated, but it would be great if we try to avoid repeating a product on the same page you're on.

* Optional: add a fun fact about the product you're tagging - what do you love about it, or if there was a reason you chose it (other than it being the next letter) - it's a favorite/holy grail product, it's a product you've been wanting to try, etc.

TO START:

* I will" reply" to the original / main post and tag a product or brand that begins with the letter A

* The next person will also "reply" to the original / main post but this person will tag a product or brand that begins with the letter B (also, remember to tag me - @itsfi)

* The next person will then also "reply" to the original / main post, but this person will tag a product or brand that begins with the letter C (and remember to tag the person who posted the letter B product / brand)

* We will continue in this way until we get to Z and then the next person will start back with the letter "A", with everyone replying to the original / main post.

FYI: Origins of this tag game

The original tag game was created by our amazing @AlexBT, who was gracious and enthusiastic when giving me the okay when I checked in with her about reviving this. Thank you for coming up with this fun and fabulous idea in the first place - it was a blast when you introduced it in 2020 (All Aboard the Tag Train: Play Along), and I'm hoping it will be so again this year. Would love to see you and others on @TeamBIC join in, along with the rest of the beauties on BIC. 

I will start off in a separate reply below – don’t forget to respond by replying to this main post instead of my reply. Here we go!

@Shosh85 

J is for Dr Jart. specifically Dr. Jart+ Cryo Rubber™ Soothing Face Mask 0.14 oz / 4 g 

I just love this one for soothing my skin when it's feeling red and irritated. It's sooooo calming and plumping at the same time. 💞 

These masks have a rubber that feels really cool on your skin but they are a little pricey. So for me this is definitely a once in a while kind of treat. 😀

K is up to the plate!

[Shosh85]

I is for innisfree Green Tea Seed Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Cream 1.69 oz / 50 ml @lmaster 

- Just bought this, and so far I'm really loving it!

On to J......

[CynthieLu]

That's awesome to hear @Shosh85 💚👌

I've never tried this before, what's it like??

[Shosh85]

@CynthieLu  It has a thick and creamy consistency, though not so thick that it feels heavy or causes me to breakout. There's not much of a scent. It hydrates well, gives me a nice dewy glow and works well under makeup. 😊

[CynthieLu]

Ooh nice! @Shosh85 That does sound really good!  The words dewy glow got me, I'm curious about this now. 🤩

[CorgiMommy]

@Shosh85 this is a fabulous mask

[Shosh85]

@CorgiMommy  Definitely agree! 😉👍

[itsfi]

My skin is all smiley seeing this product @Shosh85! Such a great mask and the experience of it is wonderful too! Did you know that I have still not purchased a full size of this mask? I've gotten by on picking up deluxe sample sizes with gwps or redeeming my Rewards points. 💛🍯

[Shosh85]

@itsfi  Ya know, I've never bought a full size either - it's just one of those things I seem to always find samples of! 👌🍯

[makeitup305]

I'm gonna say E for Ensley Reign. I just posted swatches of their last two palettes on THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD ! but I've been loving this indie brand.

[CynthieLu]

Fabulous choice! @makeitup305 Your swatches are sooo impressive! 😍

[itsfi]

Oh my, the sparkle on those shadows are stunning @makeitup305.
