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

Spoiler

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!

@CorgiMommy 

One of my next products to buy! I want to finish my ELF lip mask first 😍

[itsfi]

Nice one @CorgiMommy; there's a reason why these lip masks have a large fan base. I don't pick up every new flavor they comeup with, as I have in the past, but they've come out with some good flavors.

[Loretta55]

K is Kosas Wet Lip Oil Plumping Peptide Lip Treatment Gloss . Onward to L.

I know I've tried the primer before but I wonder if I have a mini of the setting spray. Hmmmm...., making a note to check at some point @missjeanie.

Ohhhhh! This is a gorgeous color @ather, and the formula on the Gucci polishes is excellent. I didn't want to like them, but I do; and, I've been fortunate to acquire, through purchases and gifts, all of the shades. ❤️ 

[ather]

@itsfi  I know it’s so good! I wouldn’t expect anything less! Do you have all the shades now? 

[Lila12345678]

@itsfi 
What a cool way to discover new products!

F for….. Foreo!

FOREO LUNA™ 4 Facial Cleansing & Firming Massage for Sensitive Skin 

I didn’t try the new model but I have the old one (Luna 2). It’s a cool device to wash the skin deeply. The purple one (for sensitive skin) is very gentle on the skin. It made my skin softer.

G for….

@Lila12345678, I've always wondered about these Foreo cleansers. Love hearing that it made your skin softer. Do you use it every day?
