You know how much I love the aqualillies, I devoted a whole blogpost to it. lolOriginally Posted by viccckyhoang /img/forum/go_quote.gif

annnnnnd, i don't use a lip pencil for the occ lip tars at all
the only reason why I'm getting it too
/emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> thanks Lex! haha
That blush is calling my name! I actually don't have a tarte blush that leans to the coral side. Most of mine are pink, red or plummy. So I NEED this. lol. I also love that they included a bronzer and a highlighter. Plus 6 shadows. I don't have the highest hopes for the shadows though. I have 32 of them in a palette, and they are one of the worst mid-high end brand shadows i've tried in a long time. I had high hopes since i'm a hardcore tartelette, but they were chalky and not pigmented at all. From watching the youtube video, it looks like the quality has improved. I'm hoping they are pretty good. Have you seen the gel liners? The blue one is gorgeous! I would use it more like an cream eyeshadow though. Im desperately waiting for the power couple duo to come out. I saw a beauty guru post a pic of it to IG. Its half matte bronzer, half matte blush. I NEED that too!
Yeah, the eyeshadows from Tarte are "meh", which is why I returned the palette I purchased from them in 2009 I never actually tried the shadows again. The bronzer and highlighter looks nice too & I think $38 is not too bad since the blush itself is $26, so just $12 and I would get the others
/emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I saw the eyeliner, I love it & the brush for it, but I already have a lot of gel liners (my inglot ones are going to dry out!! D; ) & I'm not too bug on cream shadows. I see you using it though! lol. I wouldn't mind the black liner in the aqualillies packaging though, even though I have like.. 5 black gel liners, but I use them a lot more than colored ones, but it's only available at Ulta.
Do you blot after you apply it? I use invisible liner too, but I always blot after I apply it and it helps a lot. I know it seems kind of obvious, but I never blot when I use any other kind of lip product, but it's a must when I use Lip Tars.
/emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> maybe ill try again tonight.
I own four and I like them, but you must use a lip liner and lip brush. It can get pretty messy and time consuming! My favorite color is Memento, a mauvey pink. Would I purchase again? Probably not, because I am a lip butter/ chubby stick girl!
This sale is so tempting!! I'm $100 away from VIB status (wow, that means I already spent $250 at sephora alone so far this year??) and maybe I'll do a haul to finally be VIB (I should stop myself though).. I'm so curious about this program. How good are the perks?Âedit: Just got the Sephora 'invitation letter' for the Chic Week event in the mail -- so classy. haha
I think August is normally VIB month, so in August, they normally do a promotion where you get a bag or box of deluxe sized samples with a $35 purchase. Last year, I got a full-sized Stila lip/cheek stain pen in the sample bag & I was so excited! lol.Originally Posted by saku /img/forum/go_quote.gif

Im an enabler, so I better not say anything else.
I rarely use liners and I stick to mostly neutral eyes, so I don't think i'll be picking up any of them. I do have one of their cream shadows in slate and its nice, but I still feel the need to top it with a powder.Originally Posted by xlisaa /img/forum/go_quote.gif

Yumberry crush? I got it too. It was such an amazing deal!!
I heard it's 20% off for VIBs..?
Ooooh, I want some freebies!! I'll probably just wait til August then.. I'm thinking I should take it easy this sale, since I already splurged on that theBalm sale (which is soo soo disappointing, btw). Why so many sales? That's my weakness...and GWPs! Haha.
I love Chic Week because it's always a few weeks before my birthday! & this year, it ends on the day after my birthday
/emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> time to splurge.As VIBs, do you get gift bags every time you shop, or with minimum purchase, etc?
I don't like their eyeshadows, but I love pretty much everything else they make -- even the brushes. I really like their bronzer, and use it everytime I do my makeup. I've been wanting that blue gel liner. Gel is my favorite eyeliner form, and that color is just what I'm looking for. I should really stop thinking about makeup.
