I placed a last minute order as well, and decided to try the 500pnt item and one of the 100pnt ones since I was over 1000pnts and had not used them. I could have broke my order up (115$) for more samples but they weren't that great anyway.

i did a last minute order for a friend. i let her pick her samples and then there was actually a 100pt reward that i decided to get. some sort of makeup remover wipes.
i saw the new 500 point one but had no interest in that either. i wouldn't use half the stuff.
oh and i decided to get one of the nars $10 duos

I got mine. I got a couple actually. Are you sure there isn't a sample? The sample is on what looks like a postcard but there is an area that you peel back and the Touche Eclat is underneath.
yes, this! It comes on a postcard. A very tiny sample like 1x use only. I got one even though #1 is nowhere near my color.
I searched all over that thing looking for something like that. I also read everything on there. Maybe I did just miss it though. Now I feel kinda dumb! lol
I ALWAYS do stuff like that so don't feel dumb.sephora samples are getting more poor everyday. it's a shame since they use to have really good samplels. now the ulta has better samples and beatuy.com too
Might I remind everyone that when you spend like $25 or $30 at Lancome or Clinique, they give you amazing gifts with purchases, like full size lipsticks, eyeshadows, face creams, blush, mini mascaras, etc. All for around 30 bucks! But Sephora expects you to spend $500 for a gift that isn't even as nice as those department store gifts with purchase. I still like my 500 point gift, but when I compare what I get for $30 at department stores, it kind of makes me look at it a little differently.
So true. I wish Sephora could read comments like yours and step up its game.
I prefer Sephora because it's close to where I live and work, and I like the fast shipping and products that are featured. But you're 100% correct. I really wish they were a *tad* more generous with their gift options.
Sephora has THE worst sample selction right now that I have ever seen since I stated ordering years ago
Hope they get their act together in time for the VIB event
It really sucks because i placed like 5 orders total....or 4? Can't remember. but anyway I was really hoping to make out with some good samples. Instead I got 2 samples that I really love and the rest were crap that I just selected just cuz
ush:Not cool. i remember back in the say being excited to order from Sephora just so I could pick from their amazing samples
Their samples are junk and most aren't even enough for one use. I totally agree with the comment about the make up counters gift with purchases, those are soo much nicer and you get make up bags some times. For $500 spent at sephora I think we earned a free full size item or atleast a step up from a sample that lasts 2 days!
i wasn't planning to get anything from this friends and family but i changed my mind at the last minute and got the ddf sulfur mask, shiseido compact foundation, nars blush-orgasm, a sephora brush and more perfume that i dont need

I meant to say "back in the day" not "back in the say". It annoys me to see my own typos.
LOL!!
