Thanks! Hats off to you, too. Hard to run a business, let alone be successful right now. Times are hard, even with our first world problems. Speaking of which, I feel like we're getting a little lost among the grievances repeatedly tossed around. Now that people are actually getting boxes, any reviews on products? I'm still waiting on one box, but am curious about some of the other stuff. The Eve Lom muslin cloth and Orofluido elixer, specifically..plus the lippie products! Any thoughts towards them being good products or not?
It's not color club, but I have orly's "rage" and tried to do a barely noticeable statement nail. Yeah, couldn't tell a difference. In the bottle orly has a bigger flake of glitter, but on the nail you can't tell.Originally Posted by drk51284 /img/forum/go_quote.gif
This is a throwback to September, but does anyone know if Color Club made a color similar to the rose gold that wasn't "Put a pin in it"? I picked up a set of 7 polishes for $8 and one is a rose-metallic, but seems to lean a little more silver than I'd imagined (I haven't seen "put a pin in it" except on the interwebs, and this looks the same). I happened to drop into Target and see Essie's "Penny Talk", which people said was similar - but that one definitely ran more gold/copper in tone. I feel like tracking down Color Club names is pretty much impossible, so if anyone has anecdotal evidence, I'd appreciate it!
Mine still hasn't updated, but one of my boxes showed up today. Don't lose hope!
I'm sorry, but I don't think you understand the big picture. There is more labor than simply making the elastics (tie/cut). That seller is also taking time to take pictures, upload pictures, organize a shop on etsy, handle sales inquiries, email/package/ship... If that is how she is making a living, it's not highway robbery at all. It's your choice to pay for something or not. If you prefer to make your own, good for you for saving some money. Many people are happy to pay for someone else to do the work; their time is worth that extra 40 cents. If she charged at cost, she would effectively be paying you to take her product.
What color was your Essie polish? I should be receiving box 1 later this week, and I'm dying to know the polish color!

the vasanti in my september box irritated my skin too and i put down sensitive skin in my profile. i tried it 5x with no other products before i came to that conclusion...however the alffia three step system that came in the my shade of brown box cured my dry skin. (facial scrub, facial toner, and moisturizer) plus the proceeds for that company goes to fair trade and gender empowerment in west africa
It was the, DDF skin brightening cleanser. The one that smells like licorice. I got it in last months box. That's the reason why I used it because it is marketed for sensitive skin. I have used products that have not agreed with my skin before, but never had a reaction as bad as the one I had with DDF.
Aww.. I had the opposite, I really liked the Vasanti lol. My skin felt extra soft and nice afterwards.
yeah i wanted to like it too. i only put a dab of it on my face and it got itchy. i thought that it was this new primer that i was using but my face felt irritated as soon as i rinsed the vasanti off

I hated that stuff. Maybe I'm just a wuss and have no pain threshold, but I thought the scrub was too harsh feeling.
ditto.

No a single decent size product.
This naked princess gloss sample is equivalent to that flower sample. The amount of actual gloss in the sample is 1/4 the size of the case - 0.008 oz. Most of the case is the brush. I do not have giant hands btw lol.
Another look.
Me either...Originally Posted by keelyknowsbest /img/forum/go_quote.gif
Still no box ... bummer.
