Rare Beauty is like my holy grail but man their prices add up so fast when you want more than one thing. I have this wedding coming up in like three weeks and I really want to look decent for the photos because Im basically the unofficial photographer and Ill be in some of them too. Ive been eyeing the Soft Pinch blushes forever but Im trying to be smart with my money since Im on a super strict budget right now - trying to keep the whole haul under 40 bucks which is basically impossible if I buy full price.

I checked the sale section on the Rare Beauty site and everything I actually want is basically sold out right now or its just shades that would look crazy on me. So now Im stuck between a few choices and I cant decide what to do. Option one is just keep refreshing the Rare Beauty sale page hoping for a restock of those value sets or the minis which are way cheaper. Option two is just bite the bullet and go to Sephora but I missed their big sale and I dont have any points left for a discount. Or option three is just giving up and buying the Elf Camo liquid blush because everyone says its a dupe but Im worried it wont have that same glowy finish that Selenas brand has.

Im leaning towards waiting for the official site because sometimes they have those random last chance drops that are like 40% off but I dont want to wait too long and then have nothing for the wedding. I feel like Ive been checking every morning for a week and nothing has changed so Im starting to lose hope lol.

Does anyone know if they have a specific schedule for when they put stuff on sale? Like is it a monthly thing or just totally random when theyre clearing out old inventory? How often does Rare Beauty actually restock their sale section or am I just wasting my time checking it every day...
