Oh yes- it's different. We went with thicker- Chapstick size tubes for them, and very different labels so that even if you pull one out of your purse in the dark you should be able to tell the difference. The scent is pretty strong in them- so unless you have a cold- you'd stop before it was too late. I'd be the first one to make that mistake- so I had to "Karen-proof" them.

I'm a scent junkie too- a long long time ago I was a soap maker, and the scents were my favorite part! It's so fun to be in the shop when we're making them- everything smells so yummy.

We're starting with 3- Mystic a vanilla sandalwood musk that's not too heavy or "too hippie"- a clean exotic scent that's a little bit sweet and powdery (we've been sending samples of this one), Bellissima- a crisp Mediterranian scent with hints of olive leaves, orange blossoms, lilly and oakmoss and then a third that's a surprise.

oh good about accident-proofing- you DO think of everything! :) Keep us updated on MOAC wave 2 release date- you know i'll be stalking by the hour the day they go up on the site. I just get so excited.

30 items though! How will I ever survive? Please tell me there's a lot of shadows- i'm better at resisting buying ALL the shadows in one go- i usually buy about 3 at a time. The lippies and blushes though...i just have to have them- i'm compelled and i can't stand not having them. lol. And then there's the liners and the fragrances. oh my word, what's a girl to do? haha! :)

Shipping will go up but just a little- it wasn't a huge rate increase. I'm keeping the prices where they are for this week and then late next week I'll bump them up to where they should be. It does stink- between that and gas- it's just not fun. I'm switching my car to run on veggie oil next month- there are cooking oil recycling projects here, and we'll save about $3 a gallon. I can't wait! If anyone is in the market for a used car- diesels will burn anything, and the conversion to run on veggie isn't terrible at all.

OH YES

I am defiantly a SN Stalker - can we get arrested, if so I willing to take the chance for Karen's makeup. Hell I'd walk on hot coal for the foundation alone :twisted:

30 NEW eyeshadows, 9 lippies, brand new gel lines, new fragrances in a stick *breathe, sarah breathe*

Karen can't thank you enough for the frangrace in a stick idea. I brought one years ago (about 14) from avon. It was vanilla and strawberries and I loved it. I loved having the stick to carry around at school, not too big and heavy plus I was able to top up in during the day.

thanks karen
Foundation: 1: baggie 6: ebony: 7 glow
Fav blush: Steller
Fav Lippie: Symphony
Fav combo: cream 1st half of lid, 09:59 2nd half, chocolate twinkle in the crease with Blackheart over it blended out and vanillia on brow bone.

I can't wait for Round 2! :D I'm especially excited for the new eyeshadows and lippies (wonder if there will be any wine or blackberry toned lippies?) But the gel liners and fragrance sticks sound really intriguing too... , now I'm off to stalk the website :roll: .

I have a sample of Love Lure and I like it as a wash of colour over eyes or a little on cheeks. I am very pale and it is too much as a finishing powder. I can wear it if I mix silk perfection powder into it. I like to mix Silk Perfection with my other glows also; this way I can wear the glows that I normally could not.

Anyhow, I am hoping for a "yellow/golden" version of Date Bait.
