JerryBox Link on Amazon

Use code: H7OJNDD5 in the promo box for $19 off. Discount appears at checkout.

I tried it on different Jerrybox items and it only worked in this one.

Thanks for the heads-up! The shade that's on sale is my shade, so I lucked out :) I also picked up a new bottle of their Spotlight Illuminating Primer because it's on sale for $3.63, which is insane since it's usually around $14-16.

Edit: It looks like Amazon has increased the price on the primer already since I made my comment.

Absolutely no more eye shadow unless it's a unique color I do not already own. I plan to put together a chart of all the colors I own via Photoshop so I can reference it when I'm tempted by a new shadow. I got the idea to do this when I got this for my nail polishes.

It’s on sale on amazon too, comes out cheaper than ulta if you clip the 20% coupon to your cart

Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel, 1.7 Fl. Oz https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00NR1YQHM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_XvzgAb0AHVHH4

Sorry, on mobile.

Butter bronzer is on a lightning deal at $6.60 right now. Not sure if this was posted already. https://www.amazon.com/Physicians-Formula-Murumuru-Butter-Bronzer/dp/B018B8Q5Z6/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?keywords=butter%2Bbronzer&psr=PDAY&qid=1563280522&s=prime-day&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&sr=1-2&th=1&psc=1

Oh, I am bummed I missed the free, or even cheaper shipping! $10 per cloth is still a little high for me.

Is the real deal Makeup Eraser any better than these look alikes on Amazon?

Eta: Costco has a 2 pack of the gloves with a brush cleanser here for $19.99 too.

Amazon Link

Received a pink makeup bag, stickers, an eyeshadow palette, a highlight and a lipstick for $12.58. Amazon Prime free shipping.

I didn’t use the $25 but didn’t get the new code either. SIDE NOTE just an FYI, living proof dry shampoo is currently 2 for $37 on amazon!

Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Dry Shampoo 4.0 oz Pack of 2

FYI I checked amazon since I know club clio sells there and they have the cute mini fridge set with an extra $5 off coupon: Peripera Peri's Mini Fridge Training Material Daldal Factory 0.12 x 0.07, 0.09 x 0.10 Ounce 002 Daldal Blue https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07D6KSP8W/

The site likely knows you're not in the U.S. by your IP address. Use a VPN and set the VPN to the U.S.. If you're not familiar with VPNs, they essentially make it look like you're in a different place so you can access sites that block users based on location. I've never had a problem with Mullvad. I watch U.K. Netflix and things like that all the time. It costs like $6 a month, they accept almost every form of payment including literally mailing them an envelope of cash (I just use Paypal, though), and it's entirely anonymous. It's been well worth it. I know VPNs are hard to navigate for a first time user, but it's an incredibly handy tech tool to have.

Swagbucks is a site where you earn "swagbucks" that you can trade in for giftcards or PayPal credit when you hit the threshold (e.g. 500 SB for $5).

They're having a 13th bday cashback celebration of 13% at a bunch of retailers, including Sephora, Ulta, The Body Shop, Nieman Marcus, Belk, and Clinique.

I highly recommend Raspberry Tart and Jewel green.

Check this table out by u/stphac to see all shadows finishes and application. I highly recommend the opaque shimmers, they tend to perform the best.

To get $5 and $6 off your $10 or more order, go to the referral thread find a Coastal Scents referral link, click on it and you will automatically get $5 off, then make an account and do simple things such as liking on facebook, twitter, instagram, and you will get $6 off.

This is a great deal! I have a Facetory subscription, and they send out really nice, high quality masks.

Just a heads up if this deal sells out, you can get 40% off your first month (7 masks for $11.94) if you subscribe through Amazon.

Super easy to cancel too.

I thought I'd re-share the table I created of all hot pots by application (e.g. opaque, sheer...) and finish (e.g. matte, shimmer...) as described by Coastal Scents for easier cart-curation.

Haven't updated it since I published it in Oct 2016, but it looks like there haven't been any additions. If you spot anything that needs correcting, let me know!

You can download the table as a CSV for your personal use if you'd like. Click on the ellipsis ("...") on the menu bar.

If anyone wanted San/Sao Paulo, Amazon has it for 99 cents as of right now... https://www.amazon.com/NYX-Soft-Matte-Cream-Paulo/dp/B004LXKVPQ/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?srs=17400716011&ie=UTF8&qid=1511478447&sr=8-1&th=1

I really, REALLY enjoy this one I got from Amazon. It's not super cheap for what it is but it's very sturdy and clean. I use Maybelline FitMe foundation and pour it in there. I get to use every drop of my foundation. It almost cleans as it pumps out if that makes sense. There's no residue left of the sides of the container.

Did anyone else get their sample box from Amazon?

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01BZV7HGW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Mine came today and it was missing 3 products...the 2 Aveeno products and the Roc product. Amazon refunded me. I hope everyone else's kits are complete.

I just ordered this one on Amazon recently. I think it looks really nice and they have these foam dividers you can switch around to fit your stuff.

Here is a link where it shows how it comes up when you sign up for the credit card online. The coupon code comes up under coupon discount, and the credit card comes up as a "promotional" discount. So I guess that's why they stack and other coupons don't.

It's only a one time use thing, but good to take advantage of if you are planning a big purchase.

*Deal EXPIRED. Thanks /u/maymay987 *

You will get an email confirmation after you complete the form. It says sample arrives in 3-5 weeks.

These JAF brushes from Amazon are affordable, soft, and apply eyeshadow better than my Zoeva brushes. Another redditor had recommended them in a similar post, and I'm so glad I bought them!!

Is is this one? I've never bought from Groupon before, is it reliable? Sorry for the noob question!

​

My mom is a Shiseido lover from waaaay back in the day so I grew up seeing a lot of it in the house.

I use their Senka Aging Sunscreen that I buy from Amazon as well as the Ultimune Power Infusing Concentrate which I credit as making my skin incredibly soft. This I received as a GWP deluxe sample and loved enough to buy FS. I usually wait until the stars align with an Ulta 20% off prestige code AND Shiseido gift with purchase to pull the trigger.

Neither of us have used the Eudermine before, I'm sure it will get used up but it's definitely more of a keepsake for mom, she remembers this from many many decades ago (she's 74) :)

Sold and shipped by Amazon.

Also Voluminous Butterfly Intenza Washable Mascara $2.83 Subscribe & Save.

I’ve heard good things about this set . I don’t own it myself, but I own a single brush which looks identical to one of the short handled ones. I bought it on Amazon. Happy with the quality.

Not really a deal, just a pricing fluke one day at my local Target, I got 4 of these wonderful InterDesign 8x12x2 clear trays for around $4 each. The regular price is $12. I love these, I use one for face products (foundations and powders), one for cheek colors, one for lip colors, and one for eye products. I have them all lined up side by side and they exactly fit on the pull out keyboard tray (which is 30” long) of the IKEA desk which is my vanity.

I will post pics someday when I have time - anyhow, I was very lucky that day; I’m not sure I would ever let myself spend $48 on trays, and I think it was a pricing fluke.

https://www.target.com/s?searchTerm=47963872

I also bought this lip gloss holder on Amazon a while back, but I’m not using it because it’s really only good for taller products - regular bullets have to be dug out. Didn’t realize that until after it arrived.

i don't have the brush glove, but i do have the sigma spa mat, the ulta thing, and a set from amazon. the ulta mitt is by far the worst, but the one from amazon is very comparable to sigma in terms of texture and flexibility.

Uh oh! I think it's because I was logged onto my Amazon account when I copied the link.

Edit: Here's the fixed link! Hope it works🤞

Oh girl I tried so many things lol

Deleted the cookies with chrome extension "RemoveCookiesForSite".

After that I opened this link IN INCOGNITO MODE and that's how I was able to purchase.

I also enabled VPN with an app called TunnelBear bc I'm not in the US but that shouldn't be needed.

Let us know what worked for you!

I agree that the smell of Good Genes is too horrible to make it worth putting on my face. I gave them a second chance when I got a sample of their cleansing oil. Again, the smell is horrible. I don't want perfume in my skincare, but I don't want it to smell expired or toxic either.

Regarding Makeup Eraser - I know people tend to blow it off like, it's just microfiber, but not all cloths are created equal. Firstly, some microfibers are tight weaves that can be somewhat scratchy, other microfibers are very soft and loose, like stuffed animal. Sephora and Ulta both have store brand makeup remover cloths that work very nicely. I like the Sephora brand one slightly more. The fibers of the Ulta one seem just slightly longer, so they hold water differently. I happy with both though. I also have these purple ones from Amazon. They are very thick and plush. I don't like them as much as Sephora & Ulta. Again, it's has to do with how it holds water and tugs the skin. I use them for drying my face.

Best deal I’ve seen on Olaplex. I picked up their kit which included no. 0, no. 3, no. 4, and no. 5 for $44. That’s $11 an item versus $30 full price per.

Ah the scents of travels that evoked many many good memories!

Molton Brown. They have a lot of scents that reads meh/uninterested to me but somehow manage to win me over once I test them. Their products are highly scented and high quality too.

Apothia. This is a boutique line from LA, but I found their products in a hotel in Kitchener, Canada. I love Verde ("Bright Cilantro, Earthy Tomato Leaf, a Zesty Squeeze of Lime and a Hint of Chili Pepper. Pasión. amor caliente, a sparkling, fresh and vibrant") but the body products seem to have been discontinued. It is so, so, so GOOD. No it does not smell like salsa at all 😁

There is also the smell of Shangrila Hotel laundry that I could not quite place - need to hunt that down!

If I travel for work, I tend to bring a lot of skincare qnd bath/spa items, like bath salts, sheet masks, etc. After dinner with coworkers, all I want to do is plunge into the hotel's luxe bath tub and chill 😇 I have a minimalistic travel makeup and grooming kit (brow pencil, eyeliner, mascara, Edward Bess Cosmic Bliss eye palette, concealer, cream blush and sheer lipstick, plus nail clipper, cuticle nipper and tweezers)

For in cabin, I like to stash my items in this Beis On the Go Case. It is a riff on Anya Hindamarch famous travel case that is much more expensive.

B. bold lip+cheek is sold out on the website but is on sale at Revolve.

Anyone missed out on the SK-II deal from revolveI managed to preorder one, might be worth to check it every now and then if it’s back in stock

I have three indoor feral cats. At first they ate everything. Now they are getting the picky indoor cat attitude. Only two types of canned cat food are acceptable.. both Fancy Feast. One creamy tuna the other gravy lovers whitefish and tuna. Fancy Feast has had supply issues the past 6 or so months, so many a night I've spent online far too late scouring for the flavors.

They have 2 large cat trees.. this one is great https://www.chewy.com/frisco-65-in-real-carpet-wooden-cat/dp/235536

The perches are big enough for good sized 10-12 pound cats. Other ones were too small for them. I recommend this one if you are looking for a tree.

Temptations hairball cat treats. They are long hair and I am sure these have saved me a lot of hairballs.. they don't prevent them entirely but they do help a lot.

Now if they only stopped hating me... sigh

If you’re new to Raise (or want to try creating another account) Groupon has an offer available for a $30 voucher for $15. Fine print says it must be a new account via the app.

Not sure if this stacks, (I’ve used Raise before, so I don’t qualify 😩😩😩) but just thought I’d share!

People are making assumptions from a marketing perspective but not from a tech perspective, the people who work directly on the site itself. Shipping is a separate function that was already implemented so luckily, with their code, it didn't touch on it (good coding practice at least for this), which is why their shipping threshold wasn't affected.

Someone pushed a change to the site and didn't catch the mistake soon enough. This commonly happens in tech (check out the "Third Incident" section from this GitLab meltdown that deleted 6 hours of their customers' work), even big tech companies. The Foreo website couldn't handle the large flow of traffic either so that may be an indication to the small size of Foreo's tech team (or whatever third party tech company they made a contract with)...

I've ordered from HSN twice in the last year and had no issues, but I might be one of the lucky ones. A quick Google search led to some less than positive reviews criticizing their return policies and customer service. I would personally pass on this one.

Thank you for all your tips!! Unfortunately, yeah, I’m looking in the entertainment district and the parking at every hotel I’ve seen is $45-60 a night. I try to tell myself that Canadian money isn’t real money, but that’s only 24% true 😂

Surprisingly, the hotel I will probably end up choosing is actually cheapest by booking directly. Marriott will even price match if you find it cheaper somewhere else, but I haven’t found that yet. That’s good to know about the rewards programs, though!

It will end up being devastatingly expensive, but it’s a combination anniversary/birthday trip and I’m going to a concert I’m really excited about and it will be a good time.

Thanks for using my codes :)

I'm trying to organize my mess of a drawer, clearing out products that I don't use anymore, and redoing my Airtable makeup database. I'm not done yet, but if anyone's interested, here is the Kanban view of it.

I actually use a roll away cart I bought on amazon https://www.amazon.com/Seville-Classics-15-51-Inch-By15-4-Inch-38-2-Inch/dp/B0049X4TSS . It is working great so far, could be a little more heavy duty (I have one drawer filled with nail polish, it's heavy) but its holding up. Bought it about a year ago. I store it in my office where my desk is, as my desk doubles as my vanity, and I just roll it over in the morning when I need to do my makeup. I don't know how much storage you need but for the price this has definitely worked out for me.

I'm not crazy about DHC for that reason so I get it but it's an easier found substitute if you're totally against amazon purchasing.

Here you go direct link, no referral etc. Samurai Japan has treated me well on multiple items for several years now. I get my melano CC and misc items from them.

For anyone who wanted more of these after the Ulta sale but couldn't bear to pay full-price, Amazon has them for $14.50 off a 12 count (three packs of 4, regularly $17.50 each.) I bought some after the 21 Days of Beauty Sale. I've already received them, they're legit.

I saw the Ulta one you linked in another comment has like an attachment/handle thing that supposedly helps, I like a more free-standing kind like this because I feel like it's easier to control and use in different directions. Tbf I haven't tried the other kind (like Ulta's) but it seems like an odd idea to me to have the handle. Plus without it, it's more compact and I feel like the spring is more intact because it's not always flexed.

I've only had one (similar to the one I linked on Amazon but tbh I picked the cheapest one at the time) but I feel like brand wouldn't make much a difference so I'm not sure why they all seem to have bad reviews wherever I look. Probably because it has a learning curve for sure but it's definitely effective! I can see the hair roots getting pulled out and I've used on my cheeks and chin too. I'd advise using it at night though because your skin might feel irritated (which is normal from plucking out all the hair lol).

Also they often advise that doing it more often makes it hurt less, but I think that's more from having shorter hairs than from actually getting used to it/hurting less. I try to do maintenance ~every week and it definitely hurts less when the hair is shorter (but long enough to be plucked)!

If you have a Caboodle it's probably a better fit for makeup, but the one I have is pretty much identical to this and I like it a lot.

I can tell when something is the wrong color because my chin starts to look REALLY ashy. My forehead doesn't have any red, but it's slightly darker than the rest of my face. My chest and face are red (sun damage from youth is real, people!) but my neck is pale warm/olivey whatever. When I did the Sephora ColorIQ thing, it came out as 2Y03, so fair and very slightly yellow. It SOUNDS right, but just doesn't quite cut it.

I might just pick up these green drops and see what I can do to a variety of foundations, lol. I can at least experiment with drugstore foundations.

I bought this hardshell case from Amazon a few moths ago and I love it. It’s one that Katy/Lusterlux recommended and the small size is large enough to fit everything you need for a full beat with lots of options. It’s $17 right now, as well.

I like the idea of the hanging bags, but it never seems to fit all the crap I take with me. The one I have fits very little and won’t close.

I use the primer water for the slightly less oily parts of my skin in combination with the Cane + Austin Mattifying Primer in my t-zone. I’m a greasy Italian and my foundation is ruined by the 3 hour mark with every other primer I’ve used but I don’t have to blot at all when I use this primer. It’s expensive but I’m still working on a tube I got a year ago so it’s worth it imo.

It honestly looks really cool; if I actually had free time I could see myself experimenting with it.

Those look like really cool tools! I guess you can make flowers with the dots and stuff.

Edit: This is what I saw. I think it was $19, or $12, I forgot which. I think the little tin container is really cute.

Try a prenatal vitamin. I know it works to make your hair longer, but I feel like it has made my hair bigger too, if that makes sense. I take Rainbow Light Prenatal Vitamins . My nails are better too.
