Which Makeup & Beauty Do You Regret Not Buying Now That It Is Sold Out?

makeup-regrets

I was pretty impressed with how quickly certain makeup and beauty gift sets sold out this year. Are there any makeup and beauty picks you regret not buying now that they are sold out? Sephora’s Advent Calender and Holy Sheet Mask Set are two items that sold out quickly and kind of surprised me. I didn’t think either would disappear so quickly.

I’m trying to think really hard about something I wanted to buy but sold out before I could get it and….

The only thing that comes to mind is a cute black jacket with little a fur lined hood and little fur pom poms. I know it’s so not beauty and makeup but I couldn’t think of anything else.

So, here’s the long winded story if you want to read it.

The jacket was already on sale and the site had an extra 40% off everything. I had it in my cart along with a slew of other things I was purchasing for my sister. On Black Friday, I went outside to decorate and don’t even ask how that goes, it was just a lot of crazy as I put out a ton of lights, decorations, yada, yada, yada! I must have like 100,000 feet of lit garland everywhere. It takes time to do all this.

Anyway, I was going to shop in the AM but I got busy with the decorating and when I finally sat down to do my orders the jacket was long gone.

Sadness.

I really wanted it.

Oh well!

As far as makeup, nothing really sold out that I wanted. I managed to snag both the Too Faced Matte Chocolate Chip and White Chocolate Chip Palettes and there was nothing else that was super must have for me as most of it I ordered before the sale frenzy began.

How about you?

Any regrets?

Which makeup and beauty do you regret not buying now that it is sold out?

Anything you’re hoping will come back?

    The NYX Liquid Suede and Soft Matte Lip Cream vaults- I do makeup for my theater company, and with some disposable lip applicators these would have been a great variety of lippies at a great price! Especially since the Liquid Suede vault was on sale for $35 at ulta- I’m so mad I missed it!

    Honestly, I went ahead and bought anything I really wanted, because of this very reason. I made sure to jump on it! I think there is a relatively new but increasingly common “limited edition / quantities” mindset, because of all the limited releases. Everybody pounces like rabid animals for fear of waiting. It’s actually made it easier for me to turn away from MOST things, unless I’m really wanting it. I get overwhelmed and burned out!

    • Isabella Muse

      yeah there’s some serious cases of this is coming and when it comes get it otherwise it’ll be gone forever and ever!

    • Rachael

      ^^ Completely agree! I wish I had waited for the VIB sale for the Hourglass Surreal Palette but I didn’t want to risk it. I did just purchase the strobe blush palette with my VIB “cash” so there’s that.

  • Anna

    I regret not buying the Tartelette in Bloom pallete on black friday…now theyre having a 30% code but I just spent $75 at sephora yesterday, UGH!

  • Tabitha

    Not buying back ups of the Anastasia Beverly Hills Master Palette by Mario on her site during the Thanksgiving sales. I knew better!

  • Caroline

    I’m feeling a deep and abiding regret about not having snagged the ABH Makeup by Mario palette when it was available. I had it in my cart and almost pulled the trigger, but then I decided against it. Why?!?! Ohhhhh how I want it now. Ah, the life of a makeup junkie!! LOL

    Kat von d project chimps. It was less dupable than I imagined. Too bad, KVD is one of the few liquid lipstick formulas that I really enjoy.

  • Ally

    The YSL kit with 4 full sized lip products came on Sephora for about 3 days before it sold out. I was waiting for the 20% off sale because I thought not many people would want it since it’s still pricey but alas, it sold out.

    Additionally Sephora occasionally trolls me with emails that it’s back in stock…. but it never is

  • KimMWC03

    Nothing, honestly. Everything seems to come back at some point and I really don’t need any more makeup. I’m at the point where I want to do a destash on clothes, shoes and makeup.

  • Melissa

    Those beautiful lip glosses from MAC x Mariah Carey. All the ones I wanted sold out fast.

  • Carrie

    Unintentionally, but I was late with the Kat Von D Metal Matte palette! I went to snag it as a gift for myself for Christmas, but lo and behold it was gone.

  • Autumn

    Kathleenlights Morphe Palette. It sold out in two days. I hope they bring it back soon!

  • Ashley

    The Jeffree Star sale! I would have liked the Beauty Killer Palette & Skin Frosts but I hesitated and missed out.

  • erinface

    KVD’s Project Chimps like mentioned above.

    And although now sold out, I’m kicking myself for not buying the YSL lip stain during the VIB sale.

  • Christie

    Not quite along the same lines, but I discovered Bite luminous creme lipstick in Musk far too late. I wish I’d known to buy 50 of them. There is no dupe in the Amuse Bouche line and I’ll be truly devastated when this tube runs out. First world problems feel real some days!!

  • Stephanie

    Hi Muse! Happy Saturday! 🙂

    I’m a fan of the Bite Beauty holiday lip duos. I missed out on the Latte/Cortado one from last year and I really wanted it. I did manage to get the Pepper/Cafe duo though and I love it!

    • Isabella Muse

      hey Stephanie! Happy Monday! 🙂 Those duos were a great deal! Glad you’re loving ’em 😀

  • Nicole

    I went to buy the Sephora advent calendar on Oct. 6 – sold out. What?! Next year I will buy it in September & try not to open it until December
    Instead I bought the NYX advent calendar on black Friday and it’s been a great disappointment so far.

  • Amanda

    I really wish I’d bought the Bite holiday lipstick. I adore Bite but kept telling myself I didn’t need another lipstick so I didn’t get it and now it’s sold out.

  • Mrs C M Dyson

    The �75 box of Bare Minerals joy which had loads of its lip oil balm sticks (pop of passion). No one has had the gall to put them on EBay yet…. Truly the one that got away.

  • Kimmyyy

    I’m mostly bummed out about missing ColourPop’s “Top Secret” mystery bag, even though it probably would have had several things in it I already own. :'( Aside from that, I got the majority of the things I wanted since there wasn’t a whole lot I was drooling over.

  • Jean

    The original NARS blush palette! Kicking kicking kicking myself for the last few years!!!
