What Are This, Sephora?

sephorarouge

So, I’m nosey and I’m wondering what are this, Sephora? Anyone notice that on every Sephora listing it says “Spring 2016 Rouge 0416”? I’m just dead curious what this means. Is it like the numbers of the Beast or something? Or the date for the end of the world?

Someone please tell me, I’m dying to know.

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.

      lol good I’m not nuts. Maybe something about the sale?! But it was up prior to the sale! What the heck is it, what does it all mean!?

    It’s when you use your discount codes and are logged into your account ( i.e. Flash shipping) Once you’ve entered then it shows up on each item you look at. Once sale expires it won’t show. Or log out and it will go away.

    I think it’s showing that the item is included in those to which the code can be applied. (Google just told me that it shows as VIB for those who are saner than we are.)

      but isn’t everything included in the sale? no exceptions?

      • bj

        Not gift cards nor packaging or services, in this case. I think there may have been similar codes in the past when there were special offers – extra points for fragrance or the like, etc.

            Got it – if you have nothing in your cart, the special discount code is removed from the cart; and then the product pages just say “free rouge shipping.”

    Haha, you read my mind. I noticed at first only a few items have it… then more.. Do they ALL have it now?

    • Isabella Muse

      haha it’s weird. I guess it is something about the sale but why bother? we know there’s a sale and if we didn’t they have a banner front page. Weird!

    When I had that random 10% off code for Sephora in my cart a couple of weeks in March trying to decide what to get before i remembered there was this sale, it would show something like “VIB 10% off 2016” under the “Free Flash Shipping”. Now that I look there, I don’t see anything! (I am Rouge.)
