15% off at Sephora for VIB's! Rec me some beauty products!

Check your mail, I just got a coupon for 15% off your entire purchase at Sephora from April 14-21, and if you go in the evening on the 14th you can get a free tote bag as well. I'm excited! Even though I just spent about $35 at Ulta's 20% off event, Sephora has a way better selection in my area.

Anyone have any suggestions for things I should get? I'm always in the market for new eyeshadows and color cosmetic products. Also, does anyone use Philosophy's body washes and lotions? If so what scents do you like, and are they worth the hefty price tag? I guess they're probably not that much more expensive than B&BW body washes because you get more product (16 oz in Philosophy, 10 in B&BW) but paying $16 or $20 or whatever for shower stuff might be beyond me, haha. And the ones I've looked at in the past have smelled kind of chemical-y.

    I get the Smashbox Primer.  I could use some Bare Minerals foundation so I'll have to check email.  So far I haven't gotten anything from Sephora.

    I actually got the coupon in the regular mail (super classy haha). They'll probably send an email reminder as well. Now I just don't know if I want to fight the crowds to be in my local store on April 14 or just go some other time or order online. The sales associates at our local Sephoras (there are 2 relatively close by me) aren't so knowledgeable or friendly. =/

    I love Philosophy's body washes/shampoos! Favorites are: Cinnamon Buns, Strawberry Milkshake and (if you can find them since they're seasonal) Caramel Apple, and Pumpkin Spice Muffins (this one comes with a recipe, and they're soooooo good!). For the non-food smelling ones, I love Falling In Love and Inner Grace. I also love Philosophy's lip glosses. I have Flirty Girl in my pocket right now, it smells kind of like tutti frutti.

    For other products you can get there, I love NARS Orgasm blush, Smith's Rosebud Salve, and Smashbox photo finish foundation primer.

    I'm kind of a Sephora hoar.

    I ADORE the Bare Escentuals eyeshadows.  They have a fantastic range, and a great shimmer without being drag-queen-meets-Ke$ha glittery.  I probably have like, 25 of them.  Even though I wear makeup maybe twice a month.  I HAVE A PROBLEM, OKAY.  I really like BE's primer too.  And Too-Faced Lash Injection is possibly the best volumizing mascara I own.  Although it's definately a wet formula, so it's kinda easy to get it all messy on your eyes.

    Ooooo, we usually get these sales here in Canada shortly after you guys do.  I'm excited.

    Like Nuggs I love the BE eye shadows.  I often "foil" them on and they stay put forever.  I also love the Orgasm blush that mehg suggested.  It works really well on a LOT of different skin tones.

    Urban Decay Primer Potion (the purple container one) is one of my fav's.

    And I'm really digging the Too Faced eye palettes.  I have the "Natural" and "Romantic" and love them both.

    koda - I don't normally use them as shampoo since I have color-treated hair and I'm afraid it'll make my color fade, but I do notice the smell on my skin lasts up to about 12 hours after I shower. The non-food ones stay good-smelling longer than the food ones, though.

    J&K - I love rosebud salve. I put it on everything. I'll put it on my lips before bed and have super supple lips in the morning. You can put it on so many things.

    I'm wearing Orgasm blush right now! It's one of my go-to shades. I will look at the BE eyeshadows. I'm glad what you guys said about the Philosophy shower gels used as shampoo because I like my hair to smell good too haha.
