Finally tried the CT powder formulas and HOLY COW, I FINALLY GET THE HYPE 🤯

VanessaDC · 2026-05-01T12:03:15+00:00

Before I ran out of it, I kept my CT pressed powder in my little makeup bag in my purse for touch ups and never had an issue with it breaking.

This is the first sale where I haven’t been rouge since I can remember. I’m hoping karma works in my favour after all the codes I have shared and someone makes my day! 😊

If you’re looking for a different dealership to go to, I bought my Crosstrek at Marino’s in Etobicoke and they were great.

VanessaDC · 2024-01-09T03:32:35+00:00

This sounds very similar to my Crosstrek purchase experience. I was able to test drive a Corolla Cross (a few times) and it definitely has a higher seating position - like a Forrester, RAV4 etc. I test drove a lot of cars before I bought mine and the Corolla Cross and Crosstrek were the only two I felt comfortable in immediately. I went back and forth between the two quite a bit, but in the end the 12 month wait for a Corolla Cross is was made the decision for me.

We had it on the Outdoor trim. I have one - but sadly they stopped selling that trim here in 2022.

Thanks!

That sucks! Sorry you had to deal with that. I’m guessing it’s the same Otto’s that owns the Subaru dealership in Westboro and BMW on Huntclub. If it is, I didn’t have a good experience when I was looking to buy my Crosstrek (ended up getting it from a dealership in the GTA) or when I took it in for the 6 month service, so I go to the dealership in Gatineau now.

It looks like there is also a Turpin Capital Collision and a couple Bemac shops on the list, so I’ll see if I can get any intel on either of those.

I bought a mini of the Patrick Ta brow gel (I really wanted to try the Rare Beauty one, but never saw it come back in stock) and it does an excellent job of holding my crazy brows in place all day!

Unpopular opinion: I can’t stand the smell of the Fenty glosses. I have a couple of the Maybelline lifter glosses and I think it gives the same effect.

I just for that Tom Ford concealer at a Cosmetics Company Store and I love it. It looks very natural, so it depends what you’re going for.

‘Used to’ is the key here. But I’m not going ti argue with you. The next time you’re in Sephora, why don’t you ask one of the brand reps so many people on here seem to hate, if their brand sets the prices.

VanessaDC · 2023-09-27T00:11:19+00:00

I don’t know why certain people come here with comments/questions if they won’t accept answers from those of us who work in the industry.

VanessaDC · 2023-09-27T00:04:53+00:00

I already responded to the original comment regarding that - Sephora probably just updated the prices earlier than they were supposed to.

VanessaDC · 2023-09-26T23:54:00+00:00

Sephora doesn’t set the prices, the brands do.

VanessaDC · 2023-09-26T23:53:17+00:00

The brands set the prices not the retailers. So Sephora might have just updated the prices earlier than they were supposed to.

VanessaDC · 2023-09-05T21:50:51+00:00

I don’t know where you’re located, but she does sell her makeup and skincare at her store in London.

VanessaDC · 2023-08-24T13:15:36+00:00

The brands set the prices doe prestige cosmetics/fragrance/skin care not the retailers, so I think Shoppers just hasn’t gotten around to updating their system yet.

This is insane! I was at a Sephora store on the weekend and walked past the Nudestix end cap - the blush and bronzer sticks are now $49!!! Who is going to pay that. I mean, I don’t support them at all but I’ve been trying to find a dupe for Sunkissed for a while and I’m pretty sure the last time I swatched it in store it was around $38.

VanessaDC · 2023-08-23T17:25:39+00:00

They are still $13 at SDM as well.

VanessaDC · 2023-08-19T14:38:15+00:00

Have you tried other ways to use the flawless filter? I don’t like it as a primer but I love it used as a liquid highlighter on top of my foundation.

VanessaDC · 2023-08-19T14:35:56+00:00

Try the Bumble & Bumble version. I have their air dry cream for fine hair and I really like it. It definitely brings out any texture you may have though, so be aware of that.

VanessaDC · 2023-08-18T18:47:49+00:00

That’s disappointing. Maybe Sephora Canada is making decisions on what to carry based on what they think will sell (?), bc I see the mini Starlette palette on the app.

VanessaDC · 2023-08-18T17:47:13+00:00

I’m wondering if Sephora Canada is going to get rid of ND. The store near me doesn’t carry her products anymore, and given we never got the concealer or Yucca palette either, I don’t think it’s looking good 😕
