Not Allowed to Write a Review

Sob. I had a lovely glowing review all written out for "Whisper" but it wouldn't let me post it. That smartypants/stoopidhead shopping cart said I had not ordered that product! Well, shoot heck and darn. Guess it's not so smart after all. Hasn't it heard of Swap and Sell? Well since I couldn't RAVE on the Silk Naturals webpage, I guess I'll just insert it here. If Karen or Jen can figure out how to over-ride things or even want to, be my guest.

"This gorgeous soft warm pink may be called "Whisper" but I want to SHOUT at how much I LOVE it! I've worn it with other pinks, with plums and with neutrals and it's always beautiful. Today I tried it with Bare and Taupetastic. So Pretty!" Donna H.

Donna,
LMAO about the "smartypants/stoopidhead shopping cart"!!!!
Oh, and since you probably don't know me by this user name, I'm Karmen from MMM (your Meow "skin twin" with FF) I don't have the same user name on MMM- I used this one here because Jen knew me as krenee from another forum - blah blah. Anyway, I have learned that life is confusing if you don't keep the same user names on all forums because then you're constantly having to keep explaining who you are!! - LOL.
Anyway, thanks for the review! May have to pick that one up - I know by now if you "rave", it is well-deserved!

Hey mikie - Oooh, I bet it would at that! Altho I found Taupetastic to be too bluish and coolish for me, Bare is another huge RAVE/FAVE. I could prolly use it everyday on lid. I was going to review it also but since it already had a review and Whisper didn't, I wanted to send a Shout out for it. Oh well. And I'm trying not to listen to anymore of your enablin...unless you happen have something to say about Beach Plum, lol!

Hi Karmen - Mahalo for 'splainin'. Hey, put up a little pic avatar thingy why dontcha? That'll help too. And yes, I highly recommend Whisper. It is just the right amount of color on my browbone. It's is quite shimmery/sparkly, but that doesn't scare me when the color is subtle. Since I bought the 8 or 9 or so SN e.s. off MMM S&S, I've been switching between Whisper and Nekkid (which is a peachier pink) on that area between my under arch area and crease. I've been wearing Bare a lot as lid color and of course Vanilla makes a gorgeous base under it all. donna

Hello Mrs. SweetieBear-
I am definitely taking notes on this one. I know we have had problems with fake reviews in the past. We have had some interesting remarks left by those who had certainly not tried the products, and opened an account just to have some online fun. At that time the easiest solution seemed to be to allow reviews for just the products purchased on a particular account. Hopefully, we can come up with an alternative. Right now there isn't a way around it, but posting your review here certainly gets the attention of the SN Girls!

Aloha Jen - Mahalo for the reply. Yea, I figured that was the reason behind it. Aggravating tho that a few phonies can ruin a fun positive experience for the rest of us. I'm used to raving around various boards about my faves but had never written an "offical review" on a mm/u company website b/4 and thought "here's my chance". So I was just a little disapointed when the shopping cart snubbed me, LOL! I chose a color that I not only really loved, but one that didn't have another review on it yet. Thanks for reading it...wherever I wound up posting. I wore Whisper again today as a matter of fact,

Oh, one more thing. I made a "duh" typo in the heading. It's funny, but I just now noticed it! I typed "Now" and of course it should read "Not". The error changes the meaning to mean the opposite, ROFL! Are you able to edit it? tia, donna

I fixed it. I hope we can figure something out. And I agree that Whisper is a great and versatile color!

Thanks again, Jen.

Did I say I also love Vanilla and Nekkid...even tho the Shopping Cart would think I didn't have them, lol! I think they already have at least one Rave Review so I don't feel so bad that I can't write mine. But I did use them both today w/another line's brown. They go w/most anything and I love the texture as much as the color. donna

Methinks there's a glitch - I can't even post reviews of some of the products I ordered.

Odd.

I tried to post a review of tart, and it disappeared into thin air, I pressed continue and it just never showed up. So I agree, I think there is a glitch in the system somewhere.
