we sell them where i work- francesca's collections(chain store)- which is where i saw it and why Bob bought it for my birthday, but they're cheaper on amazon.com anyway. Just type in "rubber ducky tea infuser" http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss? ... ea+infuser They come with a little blue stand for when you take it out of your teacup so pretty much everything that comes up is the one i have.

It's a happy thing :)

Karen, how different/similar are the sneak preview shades from the GWP IDK? I absolutely love IDk and I'm now down to a few grains of it D: Have been using it very sparingly but I guess not sparingly enough. I've been hoping it'll be a permanent shade but I seem to be the only one who loves it, so was hoping the new colours can be a suitable alternative. TIA!

Aaaaw..thank you!!! I'm not quite sure how similar it is to IDK- that was ages ago, and I tried to look up the recipe, but it's in some notebook somewhere.

Sam- I love the tea infuser!

Although it's a little late.....CONGRATS SILK NATURALS! It's no surprise, though. You rock!
However, I dread the coming days of fall. Being a tropical girl moving to the bitter cold Europe, you can say weather's not been really friendly to me. It's still summer, but the chill and the rain is despicable. I can't imagine when fall comes. But I have my SN lippies, so it should be cheering me and my coming boring fall wardrobe, up. They are what get me through the day. :D

Karen, Dancing Shoes is absolutely GORGEOUS!! I will wear this one a ton. Thanks for such a great GWP. (The fall preview shades are very pretty as well.)

Although I don't think I can wear Dancing Shoes by itself, it's an amazing topper on Mango! The colors go great together and it makes it a bit metallic without stupid-looking (if you know what I mean). Wearing the combo to work today :)

I was lucky enough to be one of the FB winners so I was able to put in a small order on Tuesday. It arrived yesterday....Friday. That's only 3 days.....and I am in California!!! Total and absolute awesomeness.
OMG....Dancing Shoes......how pretty is that? It's a really great shade for me....I love the subtle *metallic-ness* it has, and it's gorgeous over Roxie lipstain.
The 2 preview eyeshadows are very interesting to me. On the site, Jump is described as a medium gray. On me, swatched on bare skin, and over primer, all I get is a pretty shimmery lavender shade. Kick Start is gorgeous, it shows up on me as a shimmery brownish olive, and I can see myself wearing this a lot.
I also ordered the Awesome Sauce, so we shall see what kind of results. I may be brave and take a bare face shot so that I can check for results.
What I thought was really cool was that I recieved a little sample of Grassroots Green. The funny thing was that was the exact color I was was going to order as my over $30 GWP, until I changed it to Bone(at the Forums advice).
I am consistantly so blown away by Karen and Co's superior customer service and excellent products. It is always such a pleasure to see one of her little yellow padded envelopes in my mailbox!

I know! :lol: I swear sometimes Susan is telepathic. 8-) Joking aside, I've lost count of how many times I've been craving to try a certain colour and it turns up as the free sample in the next order I place. A number of other ladies here have even talked about this in the past.
