It says available through May, so I am pretty sure it is limited.....

So, does this mean that the individual liners are the new formula now?

Yes. I think the packaging is a little different, too. They come in the square stackable packaging like the cream blush and cream concealers.

I should be thanking you!!!! The new items are all really requested items, and a few staff favorites- Susan volunteered to make the liner palettes, Val tested the self tanner, and Jen is my go-to lippie queen.

Yes, the liner palettes are LE through May- so you have a little while to order them. I want everyone to be comfortable with the new formula before they jump in with the whole palettes. They just looked so pretty that I wanted to get them on the site.

They have all been reformulated- and Tarnish and Peacock are a bit different than before. The pigment that makes Black Cherry was also discontinued- so that may not come back. I haven't had a chance to try to clone it yet.

Oh, and I had a mortal fear of Exhibit A, but DH picked it up at Sephora- so I went with it. I wore it tonight, and it's a really fun color. A sample will last me a good 100 years or so, but they'll be a pretty 100 years.

So, thank you!!!!!!

Ohh, the collection looks fantastic. Karen, would you consider making the lip glazes without menthol in future? Maybe just one or two. They sound great and I would like to try one, but I don't like anything tingly. Thanks. :)

*sigh* Karen...you made my wish come true...literally. *sigh* I really did get weak knees when I look up the Spring 2011 Collection, and saw Showstopper and Crazy Love on the list. You really are a fairy godmother you know. You made my life beautiful, and my bank broke. God bless you Karen, God bless you.

PS: I too worship Jen for materializing those amazing lippie shades.

PPS: I just realized my post sounds like a first grader poem.

PPPS: If those skincare samples still on their way work miracle on me, I shall upgrade your rank to the Goddess of Beauty and I will bow in front of my Macbook or iPhone each time I open Silk Naturals website or forum.
