Beautiful blushes @iamlolacartier!
Those blushes look so good @iamlolacartier 💯☺️
@iamlolacartier, the color payoff of the shades in the Patrick Ta and One/Size are excellent! 😍
That Patrick Ta blush has been a favorite on BIC @iamlolacartier
Made my list, and have checked it twice. 😉

This should be it ... for now. I have a feeling I'll be making adjustments to this list once the event kicks off next month @TeamBIC. And, by adjustments, it'll probably be additions to the list. 🤣 In fact, I'm sure there'll be several ... adjustments ... as I read through everyone's posts here.
Happy shopping, BIC!
Excellent list @itsfi ! I really liked the Makeup by Mario powder when they applied it on me at Sephoria. I will most likely get it when my givenchy runs out.
@faeriegirl, thank you. Just a few more days until the 1st! 🛍️
Fabulous list, @itsfi!
@curlychiquita, thank you. Counting the days until Friday! 🛍️
Hahaha great list @itsfi . TF Black Diamond is very similar to the one from last year. So if you have the one from last year you can skip Black Diamond. 😘
lol, @blackkitty2014. I have plenty to keep me busy and if I'm remembering right, there will be other releases coming out. 😲 My plan is to finalize my list of gifts for others and then I'll rethink some of the items I really don't need but continue to eye. 🤣 I inevitably have something on my gift list that I think I'll want for myself as well.
@itsfi welp adding some of those to my wishlist. Have you tried the VOLUSPA Japonica Foraged Wildberry Large Jar Candle 18 oz / 510 g
@Samtian, the Voluspa foraged wildberry smells good - I have a mini from a gwp and the large jar. The cold throw is strong on it and the throw when lit is also really good, not as strong which I don't mind at all. Ooouh, what are you adding to your list?
@itsfi That sounds amazing! I added the advent calendar and the Valentino spray.
Yaaaay! Those are both beauties @Samtian. I will be very interested to hear your thoughts on all the scents.
D'oh, I reaized I didn't get into detail about the notes of Foraged Wilberries - I'm so sorry. To my nose, it's a blend of woodsy (not earthy or dirt-like) and berries. I can't pinpoint the actually berry scent - it's not a strawberry or a raspberry scent, not blueberry nor cranberry either. I think that leaves (as far as my fruit berry knowledge goes), blackberries, boysenberries, mulberries, gooseberries, goji berries, lingonberries and there are a host more I don't know. I have a carton of blackberries in the fridge and will try to compare that scent with the candle when I get home later tonight.
@itsfi That candle sounds amazing. Someday I'll try them haha. They just going on the general wislist, not shopping list.
That Tom Ford quad looks like a winner @itsfi
@CorgiMommy, the quad is beautiful, isn’t it? If I pick it up, my wallet will not consider it a win, lol 💸💸💸 Though I suspect I can find a gift cart or reward points to help soften that blow.
@itsfi Fantastic list. How are you liking the The 7 Virtues Candied Lychee Eau de Parfum Travel Spray 0.34 oz / 10ml eau de parfum spray ?
@Mellmars1185, earlier in the year, Kayali introduced a lychee fragrance as did Nest. Lychee is one of my favorite fruits so I tested both and ended up going with the Nest rose and lychee scent. I like the 7 Virtues better. While to me personally it feels like a warm weather scent, I’ve been layering it with 7 Virtues Vanilla Woods and have been enjoying that mix. As I’m writing this, I’m thinking I should layer both the Nest & 7 Virtues scents. Hmmm … 🤔
@itsfi That sounds like a great idea. Sometimes certain vanilla scents can give me a bit if a headache. I wonder if layering it with another scent will cut a bit of the vanilla? I will try this out if l end up picking up the Lychee 7 Virtues during the sale.
