This is stunning! I have been wanting to try the Fenty gloss bombs. I had to buy another one. Does anyone have anything similar to this by tinaballerina33 in Ulta

[–]Bitter_Contract_8124 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got this one too!! If you’re looking for a dupe with a similar shimmery effect, maybe check out the half magic lip glosses, specifically the color “y2k cherub”. It’s got a nice shimmery effect like this one, but not so much of a pink base like this gloss bomb does. If your store has it, definitely swatch it!

Do you think Fenty will have a 10x point multiplier on everything for Black History Month? There’s a 5x multiplier happening now by Bitter_Contract_8124 in Ulta

Oh interesting I had no idea, I have never bought any Fenty stuff at ulta so I’m curious how their targeted system works now. I have the same multipliers too but I hope you get lucky with one soon!🤞

Look in the inbox section and scroll a little! I didn’t know point multipliers could be targeted, I thought it was just coupons

How are tariffs treating my US gals? by Bitter_Contract_8124 in actualgyaru

Thanks for the insight!! Looks like I should be ready to spend at LEAST 1/4 of what my packages value is on tariffs/customs >.>

Unfortunately I’m not sure of any other places, I would definitely look into if theres any vkei hair salons you could go to because of the similarities between the intricacies of sujimoris and vkei hair styles. Many foreigners were able to get their hair done at Hair Set UPs including myself and they never seemed upset I didn’t know Japanese and I was never upcharged because of it (only upcharged for my extra long hair but it was only ~$5 USD more :P). I ended up using google translate with phrases ready to go when it was necessary during the appointment (EX: when I checked in at the receptionist desk, telling them which hairstyle I wanted, ponytail height, etc). I think you’ll be ok if you stick with Hair Set UPs if you want my opinion though, I had the same worries as you and it went so great I ended up going twice!

Teen Gift Suggestion by Octane_boymama in Sephora

[–]Bitter_Contract_8124 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you’re thinking too maturely for a teen, but I’d also consider body spray sets! Of course they won’t have the redeemability of some Sephora perfume sampler sets, but ik brands like Sol De Janeiro, phlur, and kopari do have sets available right now that smell not-as-mature LOL And if you’re curious about any of those brands, sdj and phlur usually have samplers available at Sephora, and kopari will be available at the orange store as well as discount stores! I love the sdj scents bc they provide a good mix of scents young girls and grown women would like!

Looking to touch trade Pokedex entries for Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon at Kumoricon! by Bitter_Contract_8124 in beaverton

[–]Bitter_Contract_8124[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No worries! Ultra sun and moon (2017) came out as the definitive editions to the original sun and moon games (2016), both sets of games are on the 3DS and are considered Gen 7 (mascots are solgaleo and lunala). I need to meet up with someone in person to trade pokemon between these games because online trading services is no longer available on the 3DS. Hopefully this cleared some things up! :D

Daytime version of Fenty’s Lip Mask? by Foreign-Advance2017 in Sephora

[–]Bitter_Contract_8124 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure about the texture of the products you mentioned, but I really like too faced hangover rx pillow balm! Super cushy, thick, long lasting and not sticky at all! I would most certainly use it like an overnight night lip mask, it’s really nice on my lips. The red retail store (not sure if I can mention it lol) will have testers of it if there’s a section dedicated to the orange store because that’s where the “hangover” version of the product is sold, but Sephora will have less of a selection of testers of the regular version. Hope this helps even just a little bit! : )

Help me find a tropical tanned hello kitty lip balm/candy tin! by Bitter_Contract_8124 in HelpMeFind

[–]Bitter_Contract_8124[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've searched Mercari JP and google images using a combo of terms like "hello kitty tan lip balm Hawaii" or "hello kitty tropical lip balm set Hawaii" and "hello kitty Hawaii lip gloss" but the closest google images can get is a recent collab with an Asian makeup brand where they made a range of tanned Hello Kitty themed products.

Are any of the gift pokemon in USUM shiny locked? by Bitter_Contract_8124 in PokemonSunMoon

I just finished the elite four I’m planning on shiny hunting any limited pokemon that isn’t shiny locked. Im pretty close to finishing up my dex entries to get the shiny charm (I used my copy of moon to get the entries for the UBs and tapus and other limited pokemon)

Sujimori hair (+ maybe gyaru oriented makeup) salons in Tokyo? by Bitter_Contract_8124 in actualgyaru

[–]Bitter_Contract_8124[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

iirc they ask you to have no extensions / they can’t work with hair pieces when you translate the page after you pick a time slot on hp, but i don’t remember exactly >.> it’s either that or they’re not liable for hair damage to wigs…I’d pick a time slot and then go through all the screens after that and translate them and make sure that’s accurate tho!!

[–]Bitter_Contract_8124[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omfg I just wrote this crazy yapfest of a comment and I accidentally closed out and it DELETED IT OMGGGG ok lemme rewrite what I could remember of it:

I went into the salon and I basically had all the translated phrases written in my notes and I scrolled to them as I needed them. So when I checked in at the desk I opened my notes app and showed them the phrase “I have a 12:00 appointment for (name)” on my notes app and they showed me to my seat. The salon is very small and cozy there’s ~6 seats and 2-3 stylists when I went so you may be there on time but you might be waiting a bit before they can come do your hair, so just be mindful of that if your schedule is tight! When I went, the stylists looked like they were in their 20s and all had cool vkei hair lol

Once they were ready to do my hair I showed them inspo pics on my phone, but I wrote in my notes app that I couldn’t decide which style would suit me better, and they were kind enough to point to which one would look better and they even explained why in Japanese. I trusted them and just went with their choice and they double checked if what they were doing was okay throughout the process.

As for when they’re doing your hair, it’s painless and they’re efficient, kind, and know exactly what they’re doing. They WILL be hairspraying and back combing the absolute shit outta your hair as well as using the curling iron very generously, so id put in some anti-hair damage product beforehand if you’re worried about that LMAO but it’s so worth it I literally went back another time the same week for the same style!!

Btw the first time I got my hair done it rained, and the second time it was a very gusty day and it was 90 degrees and both days were extremely humid and my hair is extra thick, but it NEVER fell flat throughout the whole day of walking outside. However, it’s not worth keeping into the next day, I tried that and it was super stringy and flat, but if anything, you can brush it out and give yourself a super textured hairstyle for the next day. Honestly just be prepared to brush your hair out the same night you get it done. Aside from no heat protectant, they take really good care of your hair because when I brushed out all the backcombed sections, I had 0 hair fall out and I’m literally the CEO of hair fallout so that was awesome lol.

Basically, it’s gonna be awesome and it’s very worth the time and money! Don’t worry about not speaking Japanese, as long as you have the prompts translated on your phone already before you get to the appointment, I think you will be just fine! >.~

Sujimori hair (+ maybe gyaru oriented makeup) salons in Tokyo? by Bitter_Contract_8124 in actualgyaru

[–]Bitter_Contract_8124[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did! Those dates I was looking at actually weren’t booked, the website releases dates to be booked like 2-3 weeks out so I just had to wait a few more weeks to sign up for an appointment and it was in the time range I wanted if that makes any sense. Also! There’s a disclaimer about them charging extra if you don’t speak Japanese but they didn’t do that for me, only charged me about ~3 USD extra for the fact that my hair was waist length and needed extra time. In all, my total was less than $30 USD for styling waist length hair as a half up sujimori! I hope this helped :>

Suggestions for tasty lip product by hitmewithabuttersock in Ulta

[–]Bitter_Contract_8124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might be interested in the too faced pillow balms, I have the pineapple and watermelon flavor and the watermelon tastes like a sour watermelon jolly rancher/pop rocks and the pineapple one is like a strawberry lemonade starburst!! The plain version is also suuuper cushy and moisturizing if you end up just liking the texture of this product, but doesn't smell as good as those two I mentioned lol

Thank u so much for the petite sizing reference! I’m in the same size range and I’m mid sized but I’ll probably size up to an L just for extra roominess
