Spring Savings Event 2020: What’s on Your List?

[TeamBIC]

We’ve started to see some of you buzzing with excitement here on the BIC because Sephora’s Spring Savings Event is nearly here. This means it’s almost time to make some shopping decisions! We know many of us are sheltering in place, which may mean we’re focusing on at-home self-care like candles, skincare tools, or even immunity-boosting products. We are also seeing that a lot of people have been sticking to their daily beauty routines so may want to pick up their holy grails and a new product or ten (or maybe that’s just us?). Regardless of what you’re shopping for, most of us can agree that a Sephora package (for yourself or a loved one) is a great mood-lifter, especially when it comes at a discount!

If you’re Rouge (like us!) you will get 20% off your purchase, VIBs get 15% off, and Insiders get 10% off. We have everything detailed in these FAQs if you want to know more about exclusions, how to shop, and when this sale is happening for your Beauty Insider tier, so be sure to read the FAQs.

Many of us either like to ask questions or give advice to inspire others’ shopping decisions. In this community of beauty lovers, it’s nearly impossible to find a product somebody hasn’t tried so let’s use this thread to help each other out.

What are you adding to your basket for the Spring Savings Event? Comment below to share your basket or ask the Community for advice!

Why did you pay shipping?

[AutumnWorm]

I paid for the 2 business day shipping in hope that it would get to me quicker. The free shipping showed that it wouldnt get to me till the end of April.  I'm horrible when it comes to waiting for a package 😅 Fingers crossed

Yikes May 5th is my ETA shipping lol

I am looking for a primer to wear underneath my NARS Creamy Radiant foundation. I have combo skin, more on the dry side but sometimes oily in my t zone. I tried the Olhenriksen Banana Bright primer and my foundation looked so caked and settled into my lines and creases. I’m kinda new to this and used to use Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse (LOL). I loved how easy it was to apply and how smooth it looked, seems like any foundation I’ve tried since is sticky and hard to spread! Anyways, I have the NARS primer in my basket because I was told it would wear well with it. Any advice?

Hi! I personally love primers, so I have seen a lot of them. I love the MILK MAKEUP Hydro Grip Hydrating Makeup Primer with Hyaluronic Acid + Niacinamide 1.52 / 45 mL, the BECCA - First Light Priming Filter Face Primer, and the SMASHBOX - Photo Finish Primerizer. The primerizer is a primer/moisturizer and it’s really nice on the skin! Some other good ones are the  #YVES SAINT LAURENT primer (it wouldn’t let me tag a product sorry!) also the 

TOO FACED - Primed & Peachy Cooling Matte Perfecting Primer – Peaches and Cream Collection I hope that helped!

@ashleydonna YVES SAINT LAURENT - Touche Eclat Blur Primer

Try MILK MAKEUP Hydro Grip Hydrating Makeup Primer with Hyaluronic Acid + Niacinamide 1.52 / 45 mL ! It's perfect for combo or oily skin. It has blue agave to keep u hydrated and cannabis extract for soothing, hydration, redness and more. Milk is also a Clean line in Sephora and at a great price point! TIP: apply 1 pump to skin and allow to settle for 60 sec to activate product allowing it to "grip" your foundation

Another alternative is the new liquid

Tatcha The Liquid Silk Canvas: Featherweight Protective Primer 1.0 oz / 30 mL! Pricier than Milk but the finish is beautiful. Even with no makeup your skin looks filtered. Oh and it smells delicious! IV never tried the silk canvas with Nars but Iv paired with others similar. Tatcha is also a Clean Japanese line Exclusive to Sephora!

What is the CODE for ROUGE? I don’t see it on the info. Or does it automatically apply according to your level?

I'm excited to try BELIF - The True Cream Aqua Bomb Aloe Vera.  I love the true cream and the aqua bomb, so odds are in my favor that I will love this one.

Hi all!  Does anyone have any recommendations for makeup setting-spray with SPF?  I’m looking for a way to re-apply sunscreen mid-day without having to redo a full face of makeup.  Trying to decide between COOLA - Makeup Setting Spray Organic Sunscreen SPF 30 or SUPERGOOP! - Defense Refresh (Re)setting Mist SPF 40?  Which one is better?

Also, does anyone have any suggestions for getting rid of blackheads around the t-zone?  I’ve heard good things about GLAMGLOW - SUPERMUD® Charcoal Instant Treatment Mask... but any other product suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks ladies and happy shopping!

@allycris I also use the Supergoop one and I really like it as well. 

[donay]

I like the Supergoop one... the most was really fine. Also had a travel size which was great.

[eqaalbert]

i need help to choose a sunscreen that can be used on both face and body ! Any suggestions? 🙂 

Also, i’m looking for a really good lip mask. My lips are not dry, but they’re wrinkle and my upper lip is darker than my lower one which i alway try to cover with lip balm. 

[JuliaYez]

Def try the Laneige lip sleeping mask!

[AmeiliaJ]

I can't help with the sunscreen but if you're looking for lips maybe try the ALGENIST - GENIUS Liquid Collagen Lip, it's not technically a mask but I'll apply it in the morning and before bed and it plumps lips all day and helps keep them hydrated too. Really great if you're aging or just looking for a fuller pout.

[eqaalbert]

this is great i will check it out. Thank you!

Anyone found a dupe for Shiseido Benefiance Wrinkle Resist eye cream?  The new one is not the same
