Hi all
I just had to rave about my surprise me gumball colours. I ordered the Vit C powder, Creasicle scrub, Microdermabrasion polishing cream and 3 surprise me - well I wasn't disappointed
I got chocolate twinkle (already have) gladiator and lilac which I absolutely thrilled about. When I first discovered silknatruals it was on ebay and karen had a purple eyeshadow set of lavendar, thistle and lilac. But unfortunately (I can't remember the reason now) I didn't buy the set. Of course I have thistle and lavender but not lilac (didn't go on the website) and its absolutely gorgeous. It is an perfect eyeshadow for me (not only to go with lavender and thistle) and I love it. I would describe it as an off sort-of white with a lilac tint/hue and a nice flattering amount of shimmer (I’m terrible at describing colours).
Gladiator - I'm not a fan of tan/browns but I love it. It’s a nice metallic colour and I can only describe it as tan-ny/bronze

That's wonderful, Ghost. I got two gumballs today - a sample size of Foxxy blush (which is the very one I wanted to try most before it was discontinued) and a full size of Sleighbells, the bright, strong gold colour. I'm delighted with them and will definitely order "gumballs" again as I love having the chance to try colours that I would not normally risk trying. (And just to prove it, the freebie sample sachet I got this time was "Chills" and it's so perfect, I'm going to order a full size asap).

Hah! Somehow they know what to send me, as this is going to be yet another random sample color I'll be ordering in full size (after Babydoll and Opal, and gave Angel to my girlfriend, who ended up ordering it in the xmas kit). I got Whisper this time, and wore it the next day

I can't wait to get mine! I added two Surprise Me Gumballs to my order; I love surprises!

I also added one to my sister's first SN order. She has a birthday coming up so I got her a few lippies (Pure BLL, Tender, and Soft; which I know she'll love!!!) and the full size Petite Cherie. I think she'll like her present.

I'll have to call her later and ask what the surprise gumball was.

Yay!!! I got my package today, which was fast, took only two days to get here!

I loved my gumballs, one was Petunia eye color (gorgeous pink!) and the other Sassy blush. I tried on Sassy, just love it! I couldn't go wrong with it, it's light enough where I can layer it as I please. I'll hold on to this for a while since it's discontinued.
