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!

@itsfi it is a classic and easy to use 

[missjeanie]

@Mellmars1185 The Sulwhasoo Concentrated Ginseng Renewing Cream is one of my favourites during the dry cold months for my dry skin.  It's rich and soothing!

Next up T!

[itsfi]

Ahhhh, Sulwhasoo ginseng. Such a great collection @missjeanie 😍

[Shosh85]

@missjeanie  Oooh, this one's sooo good! Love Sulwhasoo! I always look out for this brand at TJ Maxx/Marshalls! 😃

[missjeanie]

@Shosh85 Oh my gosh.... I need to keep a closer eye out at TJMaxx!!! I've never seen the brand there before!  I'm afraid I'd be buying all their stock!

[CorgiMommy]

@missjeanie  I may have to get a sample of this, I love this brand.

[missjeanie]

It's such a luxe feeling cream @CorgiMommy , my skin just adores this one.  My pocketbook... not always as much!

[Mellmars1185]

@itsfi When I think of R, I immediately think of the shade Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer Riri 

Next letter is S

[itsfi]

Yessssss @Mellmars1185. I ❤️❤️❤️ Fenty Riri - very happy they made that part of the permanent collection! 😘

[itsfi]

Q is for tarte Quick Stick™ Waterproof Shadow & Liner ~ I feel like tarte had something similar years ago @Shosh85, but the eyeshadow shades seem new, or, at least, new to me. I have my eye on tarte Quick Stick™ Waterproof Shadow &amp; Liner Taupe Luster &amp; Black Liner and tarte Quick Stick™ Waterproof Shadow & Liner Mauve Luster & Black Liner ... says the girl who doesn't need more eyeshadow. 😅 

Up next, R

[Shosh85]

P is for Peter Thomas Roth Pumpkin Enzyme Mask 5 oz/ 148 mL 

This one's a classic and definitely one of my most favorites! Can't get over that scent 😋🥧

@lmaster  up next is Q.....

[itsfi]

This one smells amazing @Shosh85. 😍 So much product in the jar too! I'm (very) slowly getting myself back into exfoliating masks. How often are you using this one?

[Shosh85]

@itsfi  I'm not really sure how often I use this one specifically, but I probably only do these types of masks about 1-2 x a month.

[lmaster]

@Loretta55 O is for VOLUSPA Ultrasonic Diffuser Oil 0.5 oz/ 15 mL Goji Tarocco Orange diffuser oil next is P

[itsfi]

I like this scent in the candle form @lmaster - it's definitely not a shy scent, but it's not completely overwhelming. Wonder how the strength of it is in the diffuser. 

[lmaster]

Oh I bet it's good @itsfi 

[Loretta55]

N is for a true classic @CorgiMommy NARS Blush Orgasm . I feel like this blush goes with all of my makeup. Next up is O.

[itsfi]

Definitely a true classic @Loretta55, and the original too - NARS has really expanded the shade into its other product lines. 

[CorgiMommy]

@Loretta55 an iconic product

[Loretta55]

It always pulls me out of a makeup slump @CorgiMommy.

[CorgiMommy]

Jo Malone London English Pear & Freesia Cologne  is an extremely feminine and lovely fragrance.  Perfect for date night,  wedding, etc.

Next is N
