My great Sephora deal!

BarTopDancer · 03-01-2005, 07:07 PM

This weekend at Sephora I found a great deal on the Philosophy face care stuff.

They had an 8oz bottle of Purity and a 2 oz container of Hope in a Jar alone with 4 samples of the microdelivery peel for $24!!

The Hope in a Jar is $35 alone!
The Purity is $20 alone!

WOW!

I, Prudence, hereby confess that despite the alleged presence of two X and no Y chromosomes I have never been to a Sephora. Ever. It looks scary. Do they have any face cleansers that work and don't suck?

Prudence ~ you must check it out! They carry heaps of different brands, and as they don't have counters as such I find it a lot less intimidating than a department store.

BTD ~ sweet deal! I love Philosophy

At that price you could throw in a new 3 in 1 too!

It is very very scary. I was dragged in there kicking and screaming my first time by our very own Blueerica.

I really like this Purity line. It is my first time trying it. I have to admit that I hate buying expensive anything, so this was a stretch. I'm not sure if I will purchase it again since my Dove foaming face wash and Oil of Olay works just fine.

UG,

I could have threw in some 3 in 1 too, except I had already thrown in the Bare Minerals starter kit, some eyeshadow and nail polish.

Is this the kit you got?

If it is you'll love the microdelivery peel. It used to be called the Great One and it's one of the very few products that I SWEAR by. It's GREAT stuff, seriously is. I love purity, very good cleanser! I'm about it and I think I'm going to give Benefit's new cleanser a try, but if it don't cut it, I'm back to Purity

let me know about the peel!!

BarTopDancer · 03-01-2005, 11:50 PM

Why yes, yes it is the set I bought!

I'm thinking that the wash is making my face a bit more oily then my other face wash (Dove). And I've noticed some more blemishes. I'm not sure if it's the wash/lotion or my increase in water or just the new stuff working way better at sucking the grime out of my skin. I'll use it for a week and see. They said if I didn't like it i could return it.

I used the wash/lotion combo for two nights, used my other lotion (oil of olay) in the AM. My face felt way more oily during the day today too. Tongiht I used the wash and toner (Dove) and no lotion. MY face felt way oily about a half hour after my shower (before I used the toner). Tomorrow I'll try the lotion in the AM and toner at night. Any ideas?

I haven't tried the peel yet. I have extremely sensitive skin and I want to try it when I don't have to worry about going in public in case I have a reaction. I'll let you know

The Hope in a Jar moisturizer, if that's the one you're talking about, makes me more oily. I can only use it if I'm having a really really dry skin attack. Purity has never made my skin more oily except during "that time"

In which if I look at something wrong my skin becomes more oily, gotta love it.

Oh btw, if you have really sensitive skin go light on the peel, try a little bit of the crystals at a time. You probably want to try a tiny bit in a less conspicuous(sp)area if your skin is that sensitive. It does make you a tad red RIGHT after, but that red fades away to a glowing finish(God I sound like a pathetic commercial! LOL)

I used to only use Olay with SPF 15 for yearssss but it started just not being compatible with my skin. It sucks cause I've tried so many damn mositurizers since then and nothing is working wells, stupid aging acne oily freakish skin.
