Who took advantage of the 15% off at Sephora?
If so, what did you get?
So far I have this in my cart:
Buxom gloss in Dani and Katie




Fresh Sugar Lipgloss in Sugar Kiss


Jennifer Aniston .25 oz perfume spray (undecided on this. I have never smelled it but the description sounds like it would be nice)
Philosophy's Marshmallows for Toasting Trio
Philosophy's Love Sweet Love body emulsion
Re: Who took advantage of the 15% off at Sephora?
I walked in there and didn't even realize it was 15% off until I got to the register.
I bought lallen a birthday gift (the Too-Faced Romantic Eyes eyeshadow palette) and I bought myself a new thing of the UD Primer Potion.
My Clarisonic Mia (in tangerine) and UD Naked2 palette are on their way to my house as we speak (ordered on-line).
I ALSO got TWO of the Sephora bday gifts. The cashier gave me it... and they had already put a set in the box with my Mia and Naked2 palette. SCORE!

You're going to love your Clarisonic. Have you ever used one before? I have the original one, not the Mia. I wish I could use the body brush on mine. Maybe I'll have to treat myself to a new one with my tax refund!
I saw your post about the Fresh Sugar lip balms. I love the rose one. In fact I'm wearing it today. I love the smell and the feel of it. It's worth the $22.50 (or whatever it is) that is costs. Lucky you that you got 4 minis!
I thought about getting one of the Naked Palettes, but then I realized that I have way too much shadow and don't need it at all!
I've never used one but I'm PSYCHED!
I'm in love with the Fresh Sugar balms. I hate that I love them so much because now I'll be kicking myself when I want to buy them. Burts Bees will never be good enough again!
The Naked palettes are AMAZING so I highly recommend. I live and die by my original Naked palette. I can't wait for Naked2 to get here.

Have you ever tried the Fresh Sugar lipgloss? I have one in my cart and they get really good reviews. They are the same as the Buxom that I usually use, so the price isn't a big deal for me.
I think the Fresh Sugar lip balms last a long time and don't wear off that easily, so I can justify it!
This is my first foray into Fresh Sugar so, no. But after my experience with the lip balms- I'd definitely be tempted to get their lip gloss.

I did! I ordered my Clinique foundation and Lancome Definicils mascara just because I was out, and an Urban Decay palette and Tocca's Colette perfume because of the sale. I love that perfume so much and had been waiting for my other to run out so I could get it. It smells like heaven but I've heard it fades quickly so we'll see.
H just texted me that the package is at home. I just want to go home and do my make-up now.

We miss you and love you always, little firecrackers!
Me! Although I didn't know it at the time. I bought this.

I love Smashbox products, although I've never used their foundation. Do you like it?
I'm on a BB cream kick right now, so I've been wearing that instead of foundation.
I wanna try BB cream. Is it worth the price?

I'm actually liking the Garnier BB cream right now. It's about $12 regular price, but I got mine on sale with a BOGO 1/2 price. I have the Smashbox BB cream and it's just okay. It's different than the Garnier and about 3x the price. I liked the Smashbox until I tried the Garnier. There have been quite a few threads on F&B in the last couple of weeks with BB cream reviews.
I just got a reminder email saying that it ends tomorrow. So you still have time!

If you are a beauty insider, you can enter the code CHIC for an online order and get the 15% off.
I haven't tried it yet! I'm almost out of my current stuff so I'll let you know.
I'm PISSED that I didn't realize this when I bought my Clarisonic and Naked2 online!

BB stands for "Beauty Balm". It's somewhere between a full foundation and a tinted moisturizer. It's supposed to really even and balance skin.

Sephora carries Bare Minerals, so I don't see why not!
Did you order it while the sale was going on? If so, I would call them and ask if they can do anything to adjust the price. Or, order both items again with the promo code and return the other two that didn't get the promo.
I believe so... they said it was a week and I ordered them on Sunday. I have an email into Sephora to check!
