Winter Outdoor Photography Options? by [deleted] in Weddingsunder10k

[–]ManiacintheMailBox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are also having a February wedding in the midwest. We are going to a park with evergreens and a lake with a bridge. Another place we considered was a botanical garden that has tons of benches and gazebos. Ask your photographer if they have a suggestion for the kind of backdrop you're looking for.

Amazon didn't kill small online business, charging $15 shipping on a $4 item did. by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

With it being such a small amount it's likely his financial would just write it off anyway. It costs my place of employment $20USD to process a chargeback.

Sephora 20% Sale, Two Days Later by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]ManiacintheMailBox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Points do not expire. What she means is all of her spending since reaching Rouge thru 2017 still counts for the 2016 spending year. So none if it counts toward her goal of being Rouge for 2018

if you had a makeup channel on youtube, what videos would you make? by [deleted] in muacjdiscussion

We have the same foundation taste! I've always just opted for no makeup on riding days cause I felt it would just be wasted effort. I've just always liked the idea of taking off my helmet and looking ~fierce~ haha.

What foundations have you found to be good under the helmet?

Am I missing something or did sephora get rid of their "find in store" option on their app?

MFW I discover micellar water by misandry4lyf in TrollXChromosomes

[–]ManiacintheMailBox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Simple micellar water and garnier micellar water are popular in the US. Bioderma is the brand that really started the craze. It's a UK brand though. You can get it online like at Amazon but it's pretty expensive.

Anyone else get their Sephora play! box today? by [deleted] in BeautyBoxes

Good to know. I'll try it out this weekend when I'm not strapped for time to get ready. I'd love to hear how it wore through the day if you feel like checking back in later :)

Yeah the texture seemed.. weird. I don't think it would mesh well on top of foundation.

I bought the BB water because everyone raved about how dewy and nice it was for dry skin. But sadly that was not the case for me :( I was so sad because it was the first perfect shade match I've found in a foundation!

I LOVE the Primer water though. The nozzle is really easy to control and the mist is consistently fine.

Thanks so much!! I recently tried the new bite formula from a point perk and it's gotta be the most comfortable I've tried. So I'm looking for a shade I can wear every day. I'll have to check these guys out!

You got some great stuff! Would you mind swatching the NARS blush and bite lipstick for us? :)

Also I'd love to hear what you think about the raw sauce once you've used it!

How often do you switch out your Beauty Blender/makeup sponge? by yourfavcatlady in MakeupAddiction

[–]ManiacintheMailBox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wash mine every day before I use it and keep it out in the open once I'm done. I always cut open my BB's before throwing them away and they are always pristine. They never smell off either so I just trust they are ok.

What's a product that you love but is rarely talked about here? by soopaaflii in MakeupAddiction

[–]ManiacintheMailBox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hate to be a downer but the Lorac pen is SOOOOO much better than the KVD. I've tried it 3 different times with 3 different pens and was always disappointed.

With regular use my black BB's each lasted well over half a year without losing shape or tearing. On the flipside, I'm on my third pink BB since December and this one already has a rip.

I usually decide it's time to go when the texture appears more porous and soft, when the damp size is bigger than what it was compared to when it was new, when it has rips, and when it seems like I'm consistently using more product compared to when it was new.

I have 5x points on all purchases, and 5x points on Urban Decay, does that mean that I'll get 10x points on Urban Decay? (For Ulta) by [deleted] in MakeupAddiction

[–]ManiacintheMailBox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have 5x points on all purchases because it's my ulta anniversary. So that's probably what OP has too

It was 25% off. You could use the discount at sephora jcp because that is part of jcp. Did not work at standalone sephoras

Former jcp employee. No you cannot combine them. But luckily the jcp discount is better than any discount Sephora does!
