    Someone recently gave me a coupon for a FREE TRIAL SIZE mini kit with foundation, primer and a teeny tiny brush. The lady at Sephora was so nice, she gave me 2! However, since the freebie samples did not match my skin tone, I got 2 more tiny vials to try at home. Guess what….it ITCHED and ITCHED!!! I’m writing this basically to warn people who haven’t used this brand before to proceed with caution…it contains BISMUTH which is a skin irritant…especially for people with sensitive skin.

    However, if it works for you…..GO FOR IT!!!

    • StephanieS

      Vinita is right, I started out using this brand but quickly found out I was allergic to bismuth oxychloride. I now use Everyday Minerals and Silk Naturals which are better quality and more affordable.

      • Vinita

        TY Stephanie for agreeing with me. I’m definitely going to check out Everyday Minerals and Skin Naturals. And thanks for pointing out it was BISMUTH OXYCHLORIDE (I was drawing a blank). Glad to see others have a BLAST with this deal….;) 😉 😉

  2. Mitch

    I just signed up and am about to order.
    I dont care that I am a guy, i am thrifty and see no reason not to get this stuff for gifts for the women in the family!
    thanks

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      I heart your attitude Mitch 🙂 !

    • Amy

      Need a sister Mitch, lol.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      So nice! 🙂

    • Jennifer

      That is a great way to look at it! And with this type of deal you can’t pass it up cause it would make a great gift for someone! 🙂

    • tracy

      Good Job Mitch! My husband loves my thrifty ways but has no idea how to spot a deal himself.

      • mouni

        I’m sure the women in your family love you! 🙂

  3. Alicia

    Couldn’t resist… Thanks for the tip and I use the sharpeners for my art, tee hee!

  4. Elizabeth

    When does this code expire? My birthday is the first of Feb, so if I order then I can get the birthday bonuses, I hope.

    • kristen

      You should be able to get your birthday bonus now, usually within 2 weeks from your birthday (before or after)

    • Amy P

      That’s my b-day too! Happy birthday to us!

      • Andrea

        OMG! Me three!!!! Go, Aquarians!!!!

    • Susie

      I was just about to ask the same question!

      • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

        My birthday is in the coming week and I was able to get my birthday bonus with my order 🙂 What a great deal!

  5. Angela

    I got mine 🙂 🙂

  6. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    I ordered this twice by mistake. I did not think the first order went through–computer went blank. I canceled first and kept second.

  7. Rebekah

    I love this kinda deal….I get great products for a small amount of money! These kind of deals make me so happy! 🙂 Thanks!

  8. Arianne

    I ordered the “SEPHORA COLLECTION Pony Holder ” for $3 instead of the pencil sharpener. Deal worked great! Thanks!

  9. amy c

    Elizabeth, my birthday is Feb 11th, today, they sent me an “open your early birthday gift” email, then I saw this deal, too, I scored big:)

  10. Amy

    I’m in! Can’t wait to see the goods!

  11. Amanda

    This was a DEAL that I could not pass up…ordered mine!! THANKS!

  12. Lynette @ Cleverly Simple

    Love this! Just ordered one. I’m not sure if it will match my pale winter skin but I thought it was worth a shot! Anyone had experience with the “all over face cover duo”?

    • Gwen

      A little goes a long way…just use sparingly and you should be okay. You can also use as blush or eye shadow.

    • Maria S.
  13. Angela

    Cool! Thanks!

  14. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    Are there any reviews on this product out there? I don’t know if it will match my olive skin tone.

    • Caitlin

      It depends on how dark your skintone is. I used to work at Sephora, and the undertones (especially if you are of Middle Eastern or Mediterranean descent) are a little unflattering from Bare Escentuals, re: olive skin.

  15. Jaime

    Sweet! I snagged a Sephora eyeliner for $5… and since I actually needed eyeliner I am okay with that! Thanks!

  16. judy villano

    Thanks for this… i opted for a $6 body wash since I already have too many sharpeners. LOL $12.95 w/shipping.

  17. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    I went for the $5 ball of hair ties….I am always losing/breaking/giving away/misplacing/dropping behind the bed every new one that I buy. Yay. 🙂

  18. Jennifer

    Love deals like this…I can’t pass up good deals on makeup. GOTTA LOVE IT! Just put me in a great mood for the evening.

  19. chrissygwhite

    Does anyone know how big the fragrance samples are? Are they bottles or peel off strips?

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Most are listed under the specific sample. They’re almost always small vials between .03 and .06 oz

  20. Heather

    I had been waiting for a good free item to come about (either Sephora or Smashbox) so I could justify getting an eye primer, lol. I may or may not use this free item, but I can always gift it to someone!

  21. Shay

    Hi, I’m kinda new to this. Where on the Sephora page can I find this specific deal. they have pages of deals but nothing with Face color duo. Could someone please let me know? Thank you.

    • Christina

      Hi Shay,
      you will add the item you want to buy then your free samples then start the check out process. On the same page that you enter your cc info you will see a box to put “codes” in type “beloved” in the box. Then hit continue at the bottom, Your cart will automatically update with the freebie.

      • Shay

        Thank you ALL so much for the help. Appreciate it.

    • Amy

      Just type in to the search bar the profession pencil sharpener and it should come up

    • kathelen

      how do you add / get the bday gift. mine is feb. 19, and i just signed up?

  23. Limdsey

    Anyone know if this deal is good in stores?

    • Valerie

      It is online only.

  24. Christina

    I ordered the pencil sharpener like Collin suggested I was already a beauty insider and had 100pts built up so I got the deluxe sample of the hello kitty fragrance! yay! can’t wait to get it all in!

  25. Noelle

    Woohoo!! Got it! I love bare minerals, and this is a great price! I got $3.50 hair ties for mine, which I always need. 🙂 Total was $9.66 and 8% back with ebates =$8.88!!

  26. ladyinwaiting38

    Love me some FREAP deals. 🙂 Just got the “getting started” kit for christmas on Gift Card. Had 5$ left on the card. After the card was deducted I only spent 2.99 OOP b/c I got the duo sharpener for $3 instead of the $2 sharpener. Can’t wait to add this to my growing Bare Minerals collection.

  27. Mamaoftwins

    Yippie. I ordered the SEPHORA COLLECTION Pony Holder – Tortoise Acrylic ($3) instead of the pencil sharpener. Love this product. I have sensitive skin and I have no problem with this brand 🙂

  28. Kristy

    I am so going to do this! lol This is a brilliant idea. 🙂

  29. kimme

    I just finished ordering mine. I can’t wait to get them! I’ve never tried their product before so hopefully they work for me. If not, it was only 8 bucks but I had to try it to find out!! 🙂 Thanks for the heads up!

  30. dgardenhour

    Thanks for the tip. I needed an eyepencil sharpener anyway, so i got this plus 3 samples of perfume. Had enough bonus points to get a Hello Ktty perfume for my daugher’s Easter basket, plus the free makeup. All for $8 shipped, can’t beat that!

  31. Collin (Mrs. Hip)

    How long did it take to get the birthday code?

    • Amanda F

      It went through right away, i just signed up and it told me I was able to get my birthday gift. It will prompt you to choose at checkout..female/male…and then it will show up on your order! My birthday is next Saturday and I was super excited about this deal!

  32. Valerie

    Just wondering if anyone has ever had problems getting their ebates from sephora…I placed an order on January 18th and have not received my ebates from that order yet…wondering if this has happened to anyone else?

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      I have not recieved my ebates from a stila order or my ebates free gift for making that initial purchase and no one will respond to my emails at ebates.

      • Valerie

        Email them again with the tracking number and order information, there is a special form for it not getting credited to your account…I submitted a claim and within 5 minutes ebates customer service had contacted me and credited my account.

    • Rockporter

      It takes a while for them to send you an email on your ebates. When you have an item that could be returned for dissatisfaction then you won’t see an ebates confirmation for quite a long time. This is normal.

  33. Erin

    got the Dylan’s Candy Bar Coconut Bon Bon Soda Pop Shower Gel for $4, has great reviews… bout $10 shipped! great deal! hope i like the make-up…. looks like it will be great with the summer tan??

  34. TCourtney

    So excited about this deal! I got the in cap sharpener for $2. Only $8.08 oop with tax and shipping. My Sister in law only uses bare minerals/bare essentials. This is an amazing gift if it doesn’t match my fair skin. Whoo hoo!

  35. Kayla K

    I’m so happy you shared this! I’ve been looking for a way to spend my giftcard… I got the Valentine’s Day deal, three samples, my birthday gift (I went for the men’s stuff for the husband), and some OPI nail polish all shipped for $11.25! Thank you!

  36. JoAnna Holmes

    is any one else having a hard time finding the deal? I have been searching for it all over the site. I cant seem to find it.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Didn’t see it on the site — but if you order just like Collin said — it works!

      • JoAnna Holmes

        oh DUH!! thank you for showing me that. :0 must be tired or something…..I appreciate your help. 🙂

  37. Jenny

    This is the ONLY make-up that doesn’t make my skin break out. I’m so suprised so many have issues with it. It’s the only thing I will buy. I’ve been using it for 5 years or more nowl

  38. Sandy

    I’ve been a Beauty Insider for 3 yrs now and have NEVER once received the free samples I requested. It seems they just throw 3 random samples in the box. Not a big deal, but don’t get your heart set on the three free samples you choose……. Excellent deal though 🙂

    • mimi

      That’s really strange and a major bummer. I’ve shopped Sephora.com more than the actual store because of the free online samples and I have always received the samples I selected. I think once I even scored an extra one.

  39. Janet

    The 2$ “Professional Slim Pencil Sharpener” showed up as out of stock so i got a 3$ option instead. I was not a beauty insider yet so i signed up and it immediately offered the b-day freebies (my b-day is next friday). I scored the 3$ sharpener,3 samples,1 full-size Bare Escentuals All-Over Face Color Duo and contouring brush, and for a b-day bonus they included a(3) 6oz philosophy vanilla birthday cake scented items! My total with shipping and taxes came to 9.12$!!!

  40. tdmorton

    I just did this and it’s the first deal I’ve ever done, I’m new to couponing and am excited!!! thanks for this wonderful website!

  41. Mileth

    Does the freebie comes with different shades? I never tried this product before.

  42. Stephanie

    I love this deal! They were all sold out of the professional slim pencil sharpener, but I have been in serious need of some new/different eye shadow – so I searched around a bit. Found a set of 8 colors for $6! Soooo, I spent $11.95 but am completely happy knowing that I have some FREE Bare Minerals stuff coming my way! It is the best make up! Thanks for the information and the clear directions on how to get it all done! =]

  43. tilla ham

    cool, thanks, got the pony tail ball and the samples and make up for 11.91

  44. Tille

    Thanks Colin!
    My b’day is next week and this will be a nice little treat. It automatically gave me the option to order my b’day gift with the other items.
    Thanks for all you do for us!

  45. vanessa

    anyone know when this deal expires? not familiar with beauty insiders. Thanks

  46. Tina

    I was going to order the sample, but found it only came in a shade I would never wear. After searching, I found another code. SPLURGE gave me ten free samples. I’ll be getting a sample of “hope in a jar”, along with MANY other high dollar samples. I did find another sampler of bare essentials, but it was only available in really dark shades. The code for that one is BARETRIO, on the plus side it came with the primer.

    • chrissygwhite

      awesome!

  47. mouni

    Can somoene tell me how to get my birthday gift? My birthday is on the 16th of February but I don’t know how I can get it with this deal? I ‘m more interested in the shampoo than the foundation so I’ll order if I can get the shampoo. 🙂

    • mouni

      Bummer I just read the rules and it says it has to be within 14 days frame. I hope the deal will still be available in a few days.
      Thanks so much, Collin for telling us about this. Hopefully I can score something for my Birthday in a few days. 🙂

      • Caitlin

        If you live near a store (a free standing one, not inside JCP) you can get your birthday gift there. You don’t have to buy anything, just go in and tell them it’s your birthday and you want your BeautyInsider gift. Trust me, I worked there. 🙂

        • mouni

          Thanks so much , Caitlin. I’ll plan a trip to the mall around my birthday where I know for sure there is a Sephora and ask for the gift. 🙂

  48. Amber McIntyre

    just got the deal thanks so much!!!

  49. Kathy B

    Great deal thanks! I wanted the least OOP possible so I got the Clinique Lip and Eye Pencil Sharpener for $1.

  50. gatorhater

    I just ordered the eyelash comb/brow brush for $5! I have been looking for a metal one since total beauty says they are better. Thanks for the heads up on the awesome freebie!!
