All I can say is WOOOOOOOOOOW

The lippies are gorgeous and the eye shadows are perfect with each other. They also have the satin finish which is why I love the summer lovin kit - It was worth the wait.

You've done it again Karen and congrats on doing soo well you must be thrilled

:D :P :lol: ;) :)

Many congratulations Karen, that's an outstanding achievement.

Side note - I just received my 2nd order, my Regal, Carpe Diem and Monarch lippies and oh my goodness!!! I have, quite seriously, never been so pleased with lippies of any type as I am with these. They are colour true to their on-screen appearance (reassuring to know for ordering others) but their texture is heavenly and their quality must be experienced as it defies belief given their cost. I knew I'd be reordering after being so amazed at the SN eyeshadows, but this has sealed my dedication - no exaggerations. Silk Naturals *is* the best I've tried.

No argument from me! :-) We agree totally, Helena. REALLY nice texture, I think, & wonderful for moisture. Careful; Karen's lippies *should* come with a warning label,LOL....highly addictive. I rediscovered "Soft" yesterday...someone here wanted a "juicy pink w/no shimmer", as I recall >>> whomever requested that, take a look at Soft.

So, I got a set for my gf for her bday, but guess what, I'm keeping it :D
The sale is still on on the 31st or it stops at midnight after the 30th? Just making sure I'll order on time, and still have to get some stuff get on the wishlist.

ea! I finally got my order in, nothing like getting down to the wire.

Karen,

If you have leftover product will you conceder selling them until they are gone, even if the price goes up? With our dollar tanking this month I could not budget for as much as I would of liked.

I just ordered me the two lippies everyone's been raving about. I figured I better grab them before they're gone tomorrow... Plus I KNOW I'd feel bad and be kicking myself if I missed out on these. I can't wait to get them!!! (If I could afford it, I'd buy several... :( )

Drumroll.......We raised a grand total of $1400!!!!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you everyone for all of your support- this month was completely inspiring. I have tears of joy over this, and it really wouldn't have been possible without each and every one of you.

I think we're going to be completely out of them when we ship on Monday. I'm not going to say "no" to the possibility of something in the future- but today I'm absolutely exhausted (the change in the weather always gets me)- I'm going to sleep and sleep and sleep on it.
