Happy Holidays, BIC! ๐คโ Weโre sending select members a token of our appreciation for their participation in the Beauty Insider Community all year round, and this thread is a place for recipients to share their unboxings! ๐ค It warmed our hearts to see how much you loved last yearโs epic Community Faves-themed countdown, so this year weโre sticking with a similar format, while putting a new spin on the unboxing festivitiesโฆ. with 10 Days of Trending Picks from Team BIC!
You may recognize some of these products being buzzed-about on social, or in rotation on our Trending at Sephora page. ๐คณ๐ฅ They may not be official Community Favorites just yet, but if you love what you try, you could very well skyrocket them into Sephora.com greatness by tagging them in your Forum posts or future Gallery looks! ๐คฉ
Similar to last year, recipients will have 10 Sephora products to unveil across 10 days โฆ but youโre welcome to open on your own schedule (we wonโt judge)! Though packages may arrive on varying schedules, they should all land before mid-December. While youโre free to begin unboxing your gratis as you wish when you receive it, we are challenging you to post photos and share your thoughts on each of the products according to the schedule below so we can all experience the magic together (starting with the gift labeled โDay 1โ)! You can absolutely post product photos and reactions earlier if you like โ we might just suggest hiding them behind a spoiler tab to make it easier for other recipients to avoid any unwanted sneak peeks at the surprises in future days ahead!
Weโre so excited to see those unboxings and get your reactions! Hit the โReplyโ button and donโt forget to use the โ#โ symbol to tag any of these Trending Picks you mention!
PS: Don't forget the swag! ๐ You may notice that our Ambassadors were gifted a little something extra, so box contents will vary slightly!
@Mellmars1185 - I haven't used the device yet. From what I read and videos I watched, you may not have used enough gel or you may have been pressing to hard.
@Titian06 Thank you! I guess practice makes perfect ๐ค
Ooh definitely if you have a medical concern pause use. @Mellmars1185 and maybe check in with your family doctor.
( Just to note, The device has 3 intensity settings if it's to Zingy, you can even lower it to the lowest setting. )
Two random questions related to this thread....
Has anyone been able to review the By the Fireplace Candle?
Maison Margiela 'REPLICA' By The Fireplace Scented Candle 5.8 oz/ 165 g
I can tag it, but for some reason I'm unable to click on it. I'm in the US, so I'm not sure if the availability varies by country.
And for the extra random question...
I happened to notice that the NuFACE device instructions say not to use it if you have ever had a seizure. I'm sure this is a disclaimer on all microcurrent devices and would make sense to include a warning for people with abnormal brain electrical activity. I'm not asking for medical advice, but just whether anyone has any opinions or anecdotal evidence related to this. ๐
@PrettyPaint, I'm having the same issue with pulling up the product page for the candle. It seems to have disappeared. Not sure whether it's been/being repackaged/reformulated/discontinued. @TeamBIC, any ideas on how we might go about pulling up the product for review (or purchase? Or both. ๐)? THis is what appears when I try to open the product page by clicking on the tag in PrettyPaint's post above -
@PrettyPaint I reviewed it on Friday but when I check my profile it doesn't show the review. I think it can take up to 72 hours to show up? It is funny though..another item I review the same day showed up on Friday. I will let you know if I have any success with it.
*Update - my review for the candle is now showing
@Mellmars1185 Thanks so much for letting me know. Strangely enough, when I search for the candle, I'm unable to pull it up. I'm not sure if it's going in and out of stock or what's going on!
@PrettyPaint Interesting. Are you searching on the app, mobile internet or web browser?
@Mellmars1185 I can't pull it up on a desktop/web browser or the app. I'm really not sure what's going on!
I don't know @PrettyPaint hum... that's a question I would think you could ask to a doctor and Nuface directly? I would be interested to hear what they say. ๐ง๐
@CynthieLu Thank you. That's a good idea to ask NuFACE. I imagine there are a bunch of people out there that use it without reading the full instructions, so hopefully it's just a precautionary statement.
That is a good point @PrettyPaint if you find out please let us know. If it is does turn out to be more serious, I would hope they would consider making the warning much more prominent.
@PrettyPaint Ohhh thatโs mildly concerning. I wonder if itโs due to proximity of the electrical stimulation to the brain or eyes (since itโs to be used on the face) or whether itโs a warning given using an over abundance of caution so theyโre no held liable for anything than may happen.
I would think that youโd want to consult your neurologist for a thumbs up before using something that has the potential of triggering a seizure. Theyโd know best as to whether itโs a blanket warning or if there is an actual risk to certain individuals.
@heartsmyface Thanks! Yes, that's probably a good idea to speak to a neurologist. I'm not sure how much they would know about these devices, but probably best to be cautious. There are warnings on things like movies, video games, etc. for potentially triggering seizures, though, so hopefully it's just an over abundance of caution. I'm thinking I may start out closer to the jaw area away from my eyes at first.
@PrettyPaint - The electrical current used in microcurrent facials may trigger seizures in individuals with epilepsy or a history of seizures. I've been checking around Google for awhile, but have yet to find anything (positive or negative) by an actual user (not even on Reddit). Although I had Bell's Palsey and not a seizure or epilepsy, I'm concerned about using microcurrent.
Thank you @Titian06. Yes, I am actually surprised about the lack of commentary/feedback about using microcurrent devices among people with a history of seizures. I found a couple of people asking about it on epilepsy forums, but nobody really seemed to have an answer or much experience to report. That's a good point about using microcurrent devices with history of Bell's palsy (and I'm sorry you had to go through that). I'm certainly not familiar about the research here. I quickly googled it and found some clinical studies about electrical simulation and facial paralysis, but it seems like the research is pretty mixed (with some studies reporting benefits and others reporting potential areas of caution). It looks like NuFace actually has some Instagram reels about using microcurrent to treat it, interestingly enough.
@PrettyPaint Also in the US and no on the candle. I think I was able to pull it up once but that was it.
@Samtian @PrettyPaint Off topic but the funniest thing happened the other day. I turned on the sauna and walked away waiting for it to heat up. The whole house started smelling like By The Fireplace. I was absolutely convinced someone in the house was burning my candle! Nope. One of my sonโs friends spilled a drink on the rocks on New Years and it somehow created that exact scent as it burned off! Not a bad scent to have throughout the house but also, we now have a no food or beverage policy in the sauna.
@heartsmyface Wow, that's so funny! I'm glad you figured out where the smell was coming from - That would have been so confusing if you hadn't figured out the source...
@heartsmyface Oh boy!!
