Sephora’s VIB Rouge Sale just started today (that’s 20% off from Nov. 6–9, 2015 with the code ROUGE20).
Next weekend, VIB members get 20% off with the code VIB20. That’s the group that I fall into, so I’ve been plotting my purchases.
I’m supposed to be on a no-buy until December, but that was ill-advised, since November is my birthmonth, plus all those great fall sales start now! Aaargh.
I’ll just end my low-buy a bit early! I mean, I probably won’t even receive anything I order until late November, anyway. Right?
Here’s my tentative shopping bag. I don’t think all of these things will make it into the final order, and I certainly hope the stuff I really want (the Bésame lipstick in Merlot that I’ve been coveting finally showed up!) doesn’t sell out!
‘Cause I need more nail polish and lipstick like I need a hole in the head…
What’s on your wishlist? Give me ideas! 🙂
I NEED Peter Thomas Roth Cucumber Gel Mask, Peter Thomas Roth Glycolic Cleanser, some Hourglass highlighters, and those First Aid BEauty Exfoliating pads!

I do want to try some PTR stuff sometime! Those all sound great!

The cleanser in particular is super good…and it smells like apricots! SO GOOD! The peeps at Sephora were good enough to give me some full sized samples. Start with those first. Thanks for reading!

Apricots! Mmmmmm. Full sized samples, eh? Maybe I should brave my Sephora sometime 😀

Well, the Sephora lady gave me four samples in small little containers. The big bottle is $47c a lot to spend on something that may not work for you. Unless your skin is oily, this glycolic cleanser can be harsh…

Yay I’m not VIB Rouge either (sucky scam of a “premium” tier imo) and funnily enough, my coworker just asked me if Sephora was having a sale soon… and if she could place an order through me with my VIB status (since she’s at only 15% off – part of me wants to advise her to just use her own card and she’ll likely achieve VIB status but ah well). So you know what THAT means right? I’ll be braving Sephora next Friday to shop for other people – just like the last VIB sale. Maybe at this rate I’ll make VIB Rouge just on buying for other people! 😛
Yeah you’re justified in stopping your no-buy during your birthday month! I fully support that. 😀 Plus a Sephora sale, it all makes sense!
Oooh Guerlain nail polish – I think they’re totally worth the money. The darker colours are one coaters!
Never tried the JINSOON brand of polishes – is this your first too?
HILARIOUS that your cart is comprised of only lip and nail products. 😆 Why no eye or face or skincare stuff?

Hey, don’t complain about getting to VIB Rouge without having to actually spend as much! 😀 But yeah, Rouge doesn’t seem all that special, and if you spend $1k I think it should be a lot fancier.
I’m gonna have to tone down my cart. I think I’ll most likely just get the Bésame lipstick and the Guerlain and JINsoon polishes. It will be my first JINsoon! Honestly, I visited her blog way back when she first launched the brand, and let’s just say her writing style didn’t appeal to me. That’s the main reason I haven’t bothered with her line until now….the new collection just looked too stunning 🙂
And yeah, just nail and lip stuff for me! I need to use up a ton of skincare, and I have too many eyeshadows that I haven’t even tried yet (Tarte, UD, EL, NYX) so I feel bad getting any more. I just got two new Vasanti shadow duos, so I decided enough was enough!

Oh yeah the Vasanti duos are on clearance – I picked up one for swapping! Shhhhh I hope my swapper doesn’t read this comment lol. I have a few of their eye shadows and they’re really nice – I like supporting Canadian brands.
Can’t wait to see what you think of the JINSOON polish! 😀

LOL hey, I appreciate saving money. I’m sure your fellow swapper would, too.
I have had hit/miss experience with Vasanti, so this is the first big purchase I’ve made from them in quite a while. And yay for them being Canadian, too!
I hope I get to order the JINsoon! LOL. Please don’t let that shade go OOS during the Rouge sale.

Well we had a spend limit for each other for the swap and it’s quite challenging to find Canadian brands that aren’t expensive! I guess it comes with the territory – made in Canada is gonna cost more!
Cross my fingers for you that the Jinsoon polish will be still available come next Friday!

ahh I totally have a shopping problem… I just made VIB Rogue last week Eeek! So my 20% off is happening now. I recently got to use a 20% off online purchase on a friends and family from someone that works at Sephora, so I mostly bought what I needed… but when the 20% comes around again, I just can’t help myself! I’m all about lip products, so there will be quite a few being purchased this weekend!! 🙂 ❤

Ooooh VIB Rouge! 😀 I, too, am a sucker for lipsticks. Just wish they wouldn’t go bad so fast, you know? Hope you get more lip stuff you love!

I will have to snoop around on the Sephora website. Even though I’m on a low buy, I was planning on getting some thing(s) for my very first giveaway, so the timing is perfect for me.
I’m only a VIB, and I highly doubt that I will get to VIB Rouge status.

It doesn’t really seem like Rouge is worth it, does it? Though I think if I ever managed to hit Rouge, I’d really need an intervention 😀

I think that the difference in rewards is not significant enough to go out of my way to reach Rouge.
