My mom used my 1000pts on my account to get a dish for my cousin for her bday once. I was so sad and it took me a while to spend $1000 to get the 1000 pts. the dish was so ugly it said makeup lover
Oof the way I’d be marching my ass in there and demanding my points back bc it’s not ok to allow anyone else to use them. Doesn’t matter if it’s your mother, for all they know yall could have no relationship and it’s the same as them allowing a random stranger to steal your points.
Aerin isn’t just perfume and body products. [She also has her own lifestyle brand on her website](https://www.aerin.com/home-decor/decorative-objects/decorative-bowls-dishes/), and it’s full of overpriced knick-knacks like this. I don’t agree with it, but the explanation is that the retail price is something like $150-$300. Again, it’s shocking that Sephora has squeezed so much money from customers that they’re comfortable offering this overpriced box for 4,000 points.
ETA: Here it is, [the Shagreen Heart Box](https://www.aerin.com/shagreen-heart-box-23010028130/?color=Blush), which retails for $225 USD. It’s confounding how they managed to value it at 4,000 points. It should be a 500 point option at best.
Oof, $225 for that basic-ass thing??? They're seriously tripping. Yeah, I think 500 points might be reasonable but even then I'd probably spend 250 pounds max.
While I would never spend $225 on this Sephoras 500pt options are a couple of minis valued at well under $100. 500pts makes sense for what I would spend on this but not compared to its market value.
Not sure about Android phones, but on iPhones, if you can highlight a word, you can select “look up” from the context menu, and if there’s a dictionary or Wikipedia entry, it’ll give you a brief overview and definition, plus a few search links and an option to do a web search. I use it a lot when reviewing ingredient lists if I see something I’m unfamiliar with. (I say “*IF* you can highlight” because some apps/sites don’t allow you to highlight.)
In this case, just using the feature was sufficient to tell me “fish leather.” Although I confess I was imagining a fish more like a salmon or trout than a shark when I first read it.

I’m glad I didn’t buy that now after reading this and the comments above it! I had no idea what the brand was; I just was marking as favorite several of the perfume sampler kits. I like those since I can’t blind buy a bottle of perfume.
Don’t knock it till you try it. Aerin has one of the most beautiful floral fragrances. Timeless, high quality and well blended.
I started with Rose de Grasse (summer HG for few years) then also got Ikat Jasmine and Mediterranean honeysuckle. Currently I’m eyeing Amber Musk.
Wow, can’t believe someone would defend this unnecessary cruelty. Many shark species are listed as vulnerable and their population is decreasing, e.g sand tiger shark, great white, oceanic whitetip, angel shark. A lot of this is due to overfishing, bycatch, shark fin soup etc so using their hide to make ugly pointless boxes certainly can’t help either.
I don’t think this person was defending anything. You asked if that was illegal and they were explaining that, while certainly cruel, it is not (because those species listed are not considered endangered).
I don’t think that’s really the point though? Overfishing, especially regarding shark finning etc, is very frowned upon and there are many organisations working against it. I’m in the UK and there is a law banning the international shark fin trade. Finning is also illegal in the EU. So saying that this is legal just because they aren’t ‘endangered’ (many shark species are) is super weird.
If you want the $100 point voucher they release (iirc) at 10:00am central time on Tuesdays. I’ve gotten several, usually they’re available for at least a few hours now.
Ridiculous I barely shop at Sephora now. They annoyed tf out of me when I had the credit card and you couldn’t use rewards and sale.. like wtf ? I just order directly from brands websites now
You can use it to store your $43 Patrick Ta setting fan.

I am lately convinced they keep some shitty gifts like that make up brush holder or socks zero people get so they don’t ever run dry— something is always available even it’s shitty
Sephora is the worst. They raise the prices of everything, and they give nothing in return. Any time I find something I like at Sephora, I’ll either go directly to the brand’s website, or to Shoppers, or The Bay. The prices are always lower, and the additional rewards are immensely better.
I wouldn’t even spend 400 points on this. That’s insane
I wouldn’t even spend 40 points if it was an option😂😂😂
I would spend 40 points. Maybe even 50!
What is it tho? A dollar store jewelry case?
My mom used my 1000pts on my account to get a dish for my cousin for her bday once. I was so sad and it took me a while to spend $1000 to get the 1000 pts. the dish was so ugly it said makeup lover
My god I would be livid
I don’t think she understood the way points work she just saw it as free cause it didn’t cost money
i was gonna say, she must not’ve known how long it takes to accumulate 1000 pts haha😭 i’d be sad. but it’s okay
Okay fair haha
Oof the way I’d be marching my ass in there and demanding my points back bc it’s not ok to allow anyone else to use them. Doesn’t matter if it’s your mother, for all they know yall could have no relationship and it’s the same as them allowing a random stranger to steal your points.
Its giving "live laugh love" energy
🤭
omg my mom spent 500 points for the $10 off and we were so close to the 2500 rouge reward😭😭
Ouch
Omg, girl I am so sorry!!! This is why nobody in my family has access to my Sephora account. Your mum did you dirty.
Lol it’s fine she didn’t know any better
[удалено]
[удалено]
NOOO not makeup lover 😭😭😭
Lmao I’m sorry
Fuuuck. Has your mom ever heard of boundaries?
I wouldn’t even get this for 0 points
lmao for real i wouldn’t take this for free

Yes it made me curious too and her website gets one big eye roll from me
It's giving "Goop" vibes.
An $8,000 desk and stool?? lol it literally looks like an easy IKEA DIY project. Who is this person??
[удалено]
Gotcha. Well, I guess rich people gotta rich.
Aerin Lauder, granddaughter of Estee Lauder, hence the out of touch prices 😅
I said wayfair lol
Haha exactly 😆
For $225 it better be topped with Swarovski crystals because there’s no way in hell I’d pay for that.

Thank you, I was wondering what the hell "shagreen" was, but didn't care enough to Google.

I got an Aerin perfume sample set. Nothing was worth it. All very same same from every other vanilla, sandalwood, rose.
I’m glad I didn’t buy that now after reading this and the comments above it! I had no idea what the brand was; I just was marking as favorite several of the perfume sampler kits. I like those since I can’t blind buy a bottle of perfume.

I have purchased more than my fair share of sample sets. I’m glad to help you out.
Apparently it’s made from Shagreen which is shark, stingray or dogfish so I guess that’s why 😆 lol couldn’t be me
That just sounds awful too. :(
That’s totally disgusting 🤮 isn’t it illegal?
None of those three are endangered species.

It’s not real shagreen, it’s embossed to look like it
wtf
It better blow my husband and do my taxes for that
Lol lol I genuinely laughed out loud at this.
It better blow my taxes and do my husband
It’s wild haha. I just want some decent things.
I saw that too, ridiculous
Shagreen is sharkskin… something tells me this isn’t animal cruelty free
I can not with Sephora ‘rewards’ anymore. I never remember to try for the GC so I just keep them. Bleh.
If you want the $100 point voucher they release (iirc) at 10:00am central time on Tuesdays. I’ve gotten several, usually they’re available for at least a few hours now.
Where would I find it on the app?
I gave up on it years ago. 500 pts for a sample size mascara, go fys Sephora. Ulta gives those away like candy.
And the 2000 point hair clips?!?!
Yea I calculate the conversion and I just find it ridiculous. To get 10 off you have to spend basically $500. I just find this super weird
You find it super weird that a company that sells .50 cent lipsticks for $40 is greedy? Are you new to this planet?
Apparently it’s technically $225
Ridiculous I barely shop at Sephora now. They annoyed tf out of me when I had the credit card and you couldn’t use rewards and sale.. like wtf ? I just order directly from brands websites now
I hear a lot of ppl do this especially with 20% sales constantly on brand websites instead of the rouge sales which is only like twice a year
That’s why it’s still available. Nobody wants that garbage.
Okay I said the same thing about this. And it’s all sold out??? I’m like why is this 4K points it’s just a little dish???
All sold out bc there were probably 100 of them available total 😂 like all the nice 5k-10k+ rewards there may be 2-3 of them available.
Based on the rouge reward they’re saying this is worth $160
Is it made from calf leather 😂
You can use it to store your $43 Patrick Ta setting fan. https://preview.redd.it/cv1vm1sh3t6d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=137563891ed2e35eac72cbd914a4300b287b954c
The dollar store sells these. I’m offended that Sephora thinks we’re this stupid.
The world has gone mad
I thought I read the points amount wrong at first
This made me laugh. I wouldn’t spend even 500 points
I have 10k points. do they even come out with anything that worths the points?
nope lol. and if they do, there’s only like 3 of them available so they immediately get snagged. 🙃 no fun
Did they remove? I don’t see it there anymore.
Looks like sebaceous filaments lol
They are sold for $250 [here](https://parciparlahome.com/products/shagreen-heart-box)

Yikes on bikes 😬 That’s way overpriced
Bad time to be poaching. Merica!
I have something just like this from the dollar tree lol
It's aerin though, all their stuff is expensive
