NOT AGAIN! My favorite sunscreen has been discontinued

A few years ago, my favorite Paula's Choice sunscreen was discontinued, but then I miraculously found a dupe from Kinesys (reviewed here). Now it appears that Kinesys has disappeared entirely! Almost all of their products are out of stock at every retailer. I like the Biore sunscreen I've been using (reviewed here), but I was thinking about going back to Kinesys when I finished it, and now I don't have that option. So I have to decide if I want replace this bottle of Biore with another one, or gamble with something new.

Anyone know a dupe for the Kinesys Alcohol-Free Spray? Or do you want to suggest something else--or encourage me to keep using the same Biore sunscreen? Help.

Is Sephora's Formula X nail polish discontinued?

Affiliate Links

How did I not notice this before? It looks like there are now only 5-6 shades left on the website, and everything is marked down. Boo! I've liked all the polishes I've tried from the brand and they had really unique options. Maybe they should have priced them lower to begin with. I know I never bought a bottle at full price, personally.

Has anyone seen the display in the store recently? I'm wondering if there are still more options on sale there. I might pick up the set with the top and base coats for half price.

Here is what is happening to the Urban Decay Revolution lipsticks

Disclosure: Affiliate links.
Refinery 29 has a post all about the newly formulated and repacked lipsticks from Urban Decay, including 74 new shades in 6 finishes. They will launch in June. If you didn't like the flat/round shape of the Revolution lipsticks, you might like the more traditional bullets in the new ones. They will also be slightly cheaper, at $17 each rather than $22.

If you were a big fan of the Revolution formula and are worried about the change, most shades are still available for 50% off ($11) on the Ulta website (regular, matte, and sheer). They seem to be all or mostly sold out from Sephora and Urban Decay's site. Ulta also has free shipping with a $35 purchase right now (no code), which makes it less painful to order form them. Plus there are three free minis that you can add to your order (via Nouveau Cheap): a Dr. Brandt mask, a BareMinerals mascara, and a Redken hair "cleanser." Just add them to your cart with the purchase of something else and they will be free.

ETA: Macy's has an even larger selection still in stock, if there's something you want that's missing from Ulta.

I had made up my mind that I didn't need any new lipsticks, but now that I know for sure these are going away, I am tempted again. I was thinking about Rapture, 69, and After Dark. Anyone have any opinions about those shades? Or others that are worthwhile?

Has Revlon Lip Butter in Fig Jam been discontinued?

I saw a listing for some of them on Ebay that said they were d/c. Why would Revlon do that? Oh, right, because of this. Anyway, if you love that one, you might want to grab it if you see some left in the store. I have one, but I never really find myself using it. I put it on my "meh" list. Are you going to miss it? Or is the Ebay seller just trying to trick us?
