Okay, I'll just keep talking to myself then! Harumphf!

Okay, so she got the code from the "Live Help" option...she was having trouble with the shipping so hit that button and the guy she "talked" with gave her the code.

[Mango04]

okay so I have some very important questions (because I'm too lazy to search the thread ):

How awesome are the pearl concealers LOL? Should I order sunlight pearl and pick me up pink pearl?

Has anyone tried pink lemonade or soccer practice lip gloss?

I am SO excited about being able to order samples of any blush! :D :D

[dlp252]

Mango, I think you HAVE to get the pearl pick me up pink! Don't you LOVE the regular PUP?! OH, and I think you HAVE to get the pearl MINT!!!! Kermit should always be pearly!

omg they have pearl MINT too? aaaahhhhh I forgot how fun this was!

Okay...another important question:

can anyone compare ivory foundation to multi-tasking? I'm guessing ivory is a bit lighter?

[AndreaB]

Donna,

I've been reading. So can you still get the coupon code or it is too late for this order.

Mango,

I forget what lip color I ordered.......

Ok, I checked....it's spring pink so I can't help you there.

I didn't use multi-tasking very much, but yeah, I think ivory is lighter. I thought it was too light for me, but the times I wore it I got a lot of compliments.

I think it's too late. I guess I could try to cancel the order and redo it, lol. Or, I can just be lazy and let it go...still 20% would have paid for the shipping!

[confused]

Ughhhh, i just filled my cart and was going to order. I thought my cc info was saved and guess what it isnt and hubby has the card. I put in the discount and it worked to, it barely covers shipping but that is ok. I really hope i can still use the code hubby is home lol. I need to email them to and get my money that they owe me deducted from this order lol.

I put in the coupon code and got a 9 dollar discount. Awesome!

Now for the next big decision....shipping. I have the option of getting my make-up in two days for only $101 dollars :lol: There's also $9 shipping option, and dhl ground claims it can get to me in three days for $24. Can dhl ground get to the Czech Republic in three days for $24? :confused: LOL

[confused]

I dont think it can lol.

My shipping was 13 for usps. It was going to be 58 for second day.My order was only 55 to begin with. Im tempted to run to hubbys job and get the cc lol

I would guess that they can, however, there may be a small delay withing the CR....

[Mango04]

Okay so it turns out it was basing the shipping on my old US address - I just switched it to my Prague address and now dhl is $602. I could freaking fly to Texas and pick it up myself for that price :lol: I think I'll chose first class priority mail LOL

[cruelshoes]

Okay, someone posted this on the forum on the old site...I have nooooo idea where they got it or anything, but they just posted it today AFTER I ordered, lol:

Coupon code:

eDm24hR = 20% off

Schweet! I'll take 20% off! I am going to place my order tonight. Happy 6-month cult anniversary, everybody!

[confusedks]

I need opinions...

Should I buy a long handled kabuki, angled blush brush or new flat top brush? I think I mainly want to use it for finishing powder and my first layer (primer). I already have a baby kabuki and that's what I mainly use for foundation.

Anyone have a favorite?

Well I can tell you that the flat top brush is FAR superior to the baby kabuki. I LOVE the flat top . It is very soft and luxurious. I'll be getting the long handled kabuki with my next order, so I can't really say anything about that yet. I like the angled brush blush, but I actually don't use it very often (I still use my BE brushes for blush )

Edit: sorry, I meant to say angled BLUSH brush. I'm tired. LOL Time for bed. Everyone cross your fingers for me that my order doesn't sit in customs for two months....

[confused]

Kassandra,

I use the new flat top brush for everything. I actually have 2 of them lol. One is for foundation and one is for finishing dust. I use the angled blush brush for my sunlight concelor and blush.

!!!! WOW, um yeah, I could take a small vacation for that money, lol. By-the-way I do have Pink Lemonade (got it as a freebie a few orders ago)...I was confused yesterday because I thought I had it, but it wasn't on my spreadsheet. Looked last night and sure enough I have it. I put it out on the counter so that I could try it this morning...and...promptly forgot. It still sits on my counter. I remember that I thought it was okay, but it was in the THIRD drawer of my lip gloss drawer, and the THIRD drawer is reserved for lip gloss that I will likely NEVER wear. Middle drawer is for yeah, I like this well enough, but don't wear it often, and the top drawer is for my favorites. Next best thing to a spreadsheet!

I LOVE all three of them. I use the flat top to put on my silk dust (first layer), the long handled kabuki for foundation (second layer) and the angled brush for blush. If I had to rank according to favorites: LHK, FT then angled. The angled brush is small...the brush part is smaller than a lot of other blush brushes I've used. So I have two...the small one I use for very lightly pigmented blush because it puts it on more concentrated, then I have a fluffier one that I got at Target which I use to put on more pigmented stuff--puts it on lighter.

I'd say the long handled kabuki is my most favorite

LOL Okay....I absolutely cannot do spreadsheets, but I might be able to handle some sort of drawer-related organizational system Will have to try that soon.

I'd venture to guess that if you did have pink lemonade on your spreadsheet, your trusty spreadsheet would tell you that it's a few shades too light. Just a guess though.

You guys...I might have to turn to the dark side for a while and buy a non EM foundation to tide me over while I wait for my order to arrive. Any brand suggestions?

[dlp252]

Sorry Mango, no suggestions from me...everything else makes me itch or break out.

So, I emailed EM to see if they would apply the discount to my order since the announcement about the special wasn't up when I posted, but says orders "from June 4". I'll see what they say.

The forum is up at the new site now too!

[confused]

Ok I feel like an idiot,. I never knew you all put an silk dust on under your foundation. I have always jsut put my sunlight under my eyes then straight to foundation, blush then finishing dust. Well today i tried silk dust under and what an difference it made, I also finally wore mascara again after an year. I had an very good makeup day today lol.

Donna,

Are you able to get the discount after all

paula

[ShadowSwallow]

AH!!! I was planning on putting off buying my makeup for a while... but 20% off? Must buy! Must buy!

Kassandra, I love the LHK, I can't use the FTB anymore since it irritates my skin (and I've got one unused one... should probably put it up on the swap board) and I'm definitely going to be buying another LHK. I like using a big brush to apply blush... or I end up with a splotch of color instead of something natural.

Has anyone tried the rice powder? I'm going to be ordering a mini size.

I'm still not sure what to do with everything.

I have the start to finish powder which I assume is used before the foundation?

Birdy,

By all means.....order!
