hi Karen,
I saw that you got sneak-preview sample from Holiday collection, what does this include anyway?

Right now it's a small jar of our brown sugar and vanilla lip scrub- but it will change over the course of the week.

Thinking about the night treatment some more... I've mixed Vitamin C powder into my night lotion in the past -- I love it for summer, but for some reason, it's too irritating in the winter. Could it just be the formulation? (I use Philosophy's Vit C powder)

I've switched to a mineral company's night treatment powder in the last few weeks and it leaves my skin sooooo smooth! But I don't like how sparkly it is. It makes me glow metallic. Maybe this is romantic in low light, but I think I still look funny...

So here's MY wish: I would much prefer something that wasn't so glowy, did have the silk, antioxidants and vit C, but without the funky glow and without the "rare minerals" bit (I never really believed the "untouched earth" from the jurassic period anyway...)

I'm going to try doing both. The l-ascorbic acid that Philosophy uses (and the one that I dissolve in my moisturizer)- does have a sting to it. I've gotten used to it-but if I skip it for a while then I have to work my way back up to a scoop. The oil soluble form that I would use as a brush-on product doesn't seem to have as much bite to it.

Karen is so responsive to fulfilling customers' makeup wishes that I don't want to step on her toes, but . . . *whispers* Just in case you still want the BE Eye Quickie, it's now on sale for $9.50. The shipping might kill the deal, though. /*whispering*
