mail stalker

I’m stalking the mail man for my Too Faced Spring 2016 order, my Shalimar Body Powder order, my Lush Fragrance order from the UK (scratch that, this post was scheduled a few days ago and I got my Lush order yesterday), and my current Ulta order that contains some Soap & Glory (got this too haha) essentials and gifts for myself.

What are you stalking the mail man for?

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse. If you’re that person feel free to reach out and leave a comment or follow me on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Bloglovin‘.

    Your blog posts make me laugh because they are, more often than not, too close to my own experiences. I check on line tracking info a few times a day but I’m not stalking my USPS or UPS or Fed X delivery person — because I have everything sent to my parents’ house! I let my Mom do the stalking.

    That said, I am waiting on an Ulta order (I decided to try me some Soap & Glory, thank you my Sista), Sephora order that I put my $25 VIB Rouge discount to use, TooFaced which hasn’t even shipped yet they’re killing me, and voila! — some Christmas gifts for people other than myself!

    • Isabella Muse

      Ha!!!!! Lucky! You have someone to do the dirty deed for you! OOO I hope you love Soap & Glory, update me when you tried!

  • Denise

    I’m stalking my Tarte Big Blush Book and my Too Faced Chocolate Bon Bons palette. I still haven’t figured out how I’m spending my Sephora $20 off $50 or my ULTA 20% off everything coupon. Oh, and my Viseart palettes came yesterday!

    • Isabella Muse

      ugh I’m waiting patiently for my 20% off I didn’t get it! I’m stalking for the Bon Bon Palette too!

      • Cathy

        you know HSN have a good offer. I read on nouveau cheap blog that you can get $20 off any $40 if you are a new buyer and if you use visa speed check out you can get $25 off your $50 purchase. I used the $25 out of you $50 for my CHocolate bon bons I got some thread for my mom and pay $28.

      • Janessa

        Wait, what?! Theres an Ulta 20% off coupon right now?? Calling CS on my lunch and the In Bloom palette is mine… I was just at the Brow Bar last night and swatched it. I told myself that I wouldn’t buy it until I could get at least 20% off… Looks like that time is now!

    • Janessa

      Is the Blush Book going to be coming back?? I would love to get another as a gift!

  • Christina D.

    What?! I haven’t gotten my Ulta 20% off coupon yet and I’m Platinum! I may call them but their customer service sucks so we’ll see how I’m feeling later.

  • Chelsea

    I’ve been shopping way too much! Just got done stalking Target, Sephora, and another skincare order, still waiting for Urban Outfitters (mostly apparel, but a mask by The Face Shop too), eBay (La Roche Posay Cicaplast balm), and Amazon (pimple patches and probiotics). I also have my Ulta Platinum coupon and about $40 in points to spend…

  • Christina D.

    OK so I admit I have issues when it comes to makeup. Hence I called Ulta and after they cut me off the first time, I was able to get a human being on the phone who said that they would email to me the 20% off coupon. I checked my email and lo and behold there it is. Ask and ye shall receive.

    Also FYI free shipping is back up to a $50 minimum.

  • Cathy

    Ohh Man!! were to start!!! I already received the Sephora order with the $25 VIB rouge, I got the smachbox Master class Palette III. I placed an order on Hautelook for some limecrime products, they still haven’t been shipped. My first Ulta order for the Too Faced blush palette supposed to arrive today, the ulta order I made with the 20% discount that I got the tartellette in the bloom palette, UD Gwen Stephani palette and some fragrance, supposed to arrive on Saturday, I got the Tartelete original palette on Tarte with the friends 30% off that is supposed to arrive on the 17th so far away and the HSN order I made with the Too Faced Chocolate Bon Bons and that still haven’t shipped.

  • Caroline

    This post is hilarious, and reading the comments made me feel much better about my shopping habit!! LOL

    My most recent Sephora order and my Allure Beauty Thrills box just arrived in the mail yesterday; now I’m just waiting on this month’s Birchbox and my quarterly Walmart Beauty Box to arrive! 🙂

  • Marisa

    This post made me laugh because not only do I know the mailwoman by first name, I also know the FedEx, UPS, and OnTrac people by first name. Plus, I have phone numbers. *smh* Anyway, I’m waiting for my 50% off Julep order, my Sephora $20 off $50 order, my Target order of Star Wars make up and Sonia Kashuk brushes (20% off last week), and my Nars An Abnormal Female order (20% off last week). *sigh* I may have a problem…Hahaha! :-p

    • Isabella Muse

      haha me too! My UPS guy from a few years ago asked me out ha! damn girl! I’m coming over!

      • Marisa

        FYI – Julep has the Shadow Box free with a $25 purchase. Also, HSN has $10 off ( coupon code 156328) which brings Too Faced Chocolate Bon Bons down to $39. Merry Christmas!

    I’m anxiously anticipating the arrival of my first Kiko Cosmetics order! In all reality it should have been here already, but for some reason it sat at a FedEx facility in Georgia for five whole days before FINALLY making its way here. I’m so excited, though!

      • Andrew

        Well after reading your rave review of their lip balm and scrub holiday duo, I got the Milk & Honey set since it was the least pigmented. I must have gotten a dud, though, because I’m so disappointed now. The scrub was very stiff, the balm only lasted about 30 minutes and did nothing for hydration, and they both had an alarmingly heavy, cloying fragrance that you could smell before they were even opened. My heart sank because the looked and felt so chic but totally underperformed :(.

        On the bright side, however, I got the double-sided brow shaper from the Midnight Sirens collection and the contouring pencil duo from Rebel Romantic and they’re all superb. The contouring pencils are spot on dupes for Kevyn Aucoin’s Sculpting Cream and Candlelight Cream, only easier to use since they’re pencils and MUCH more budget-friendly.

        • Isabella Muse

          oh no andrew sorry! I only have the one set and it was lovely! maybe it was a flike!? I feel bad! 🙁 Sorry! I’m glad you at least got something you did like 🙂 that makes me a little happier!

  • Janessa

    Hmmm… Let me throw myself into a panic over what’s not here yet… Tarte Big Blush Book (mine) Sephora order (gifts and the Chocolate Bon Bons, I saved my $25 VIB Rouge card for it) Too Faced Spring (mine, because I needed the blush palette like I needed a hole in my head. And I loved the new berry lipstick), a Bon Jovi store order (got a massive coffee table book for Moms. Hoping her inner 80’s fan girl comes back to life), QVC (gift)(no, wait, I got the new Ohilosophy Sweet Cream Olive Oil scrub… yum! Damn easy pay option…) ColourPop (couldn’t pass on ‘Puppy Love’, every female on my gift list is getting one), Groupon (Wet Brushes as stocking stuffers)… Yay I think that’s it!! Phew. And in my defense, with the exception of the body scrub, I’m wrapping everything thats for myself and putting it under the tree. Figure since I justified the purchase as a gift for self, I have to hold myself to it… So I can do it again next year 😉
    I get everything delivered to my office so my coworkers think I’m going all out for Christmas, they just don’t know it’s all out on myself -__- LOL

  • Rachel R.

    Just my Ofra liquid lipsticks ordert. I ordered the two Kathleen Lights shades and the new metallic gold and silver. Also, I finally managed to grab an Alice in Wonderland Tshirt from Torrid before they sold out again, so I’m keeeping an eye out for that. Everything else I’ve ordered has arrived. My hubby ordered a the Too Faced Bon Bons palette and something else for me for Christmas, but I’m not allowed to open that package. 😉

  • Fey

    One time, I was super stoked for some NYX Wicked lippies when they came out, and I watched the truck pull in from an upstairs window. I proceeded to race down the stairs, throw open the door, and almost knock the delivery man out stone cold with the door. His hand was was still raised to knock. He was so shocked, standing still for a beat before he could react, and he made some comment on how desperate I was for the box. The best part– it wasn’t even my lipstick delivery.

  • Nikole

    Muse, you ordered Shalimar powder? I love you I have loved Shalimar since my mom’s mom gave me some, decades ago. A timeless beautiful classic that I really hope is never discontinued. I feel very old, outdated and out of touch when I use fragrances like that (Opium is another), but I love them and I can’t help myself. You just made me so happy

    • Isabella Muse

      Nikole, I absolutely adore it and I’m so glad I found a fellow sister who does. Most people feel like it is a grandma fragrance! Not to me, I adore it. I also love the vanilla based one they did a few years ago, if you haven’t tried, try tracking it down, it is divine! I can’t believe more people aren’t in love with it. Truly it is a timeless fragrance. And if you have a little extra $$$ throw it at any one of the Guerlain Elixirs, they are simply to die for!

  • Jackie

    I thought I was the only one stalking my mail man and UPS guy…lol. I’m waiting (patiently) for my Too Faced Bon Bons Palette along with a few other small items that I purchased from Sephora with the $20 off $50 coupon (supposed to arrive tomorrow) and my Too Faced Love Flush Blush Palette that I ordered from Ulta when it first came out (supposed to arrive on Saturday). Haven’t decided what I will get with my Ulta 20% off order but I’m thinking about the Lorac Pro Palette 2. I have done quite a bit of makeup shopping this season, so trying to decide if I really need/want it. There are also a few other makeup items I want still…Yikes!

  • Iris

    I’m currently awaiting Purpose jewelry and a Wear Your Label x Modify Watches item.

    Also various Kickstarter perks which may or may not have shipped yet and a few decant circle items.
