So I ended up making two decent sized orders today, from My Pretty Zombie and Notoriously Morbid.  These are my combination birthday/dissertation defense celebration orders :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I also got my Shiro order in the mail today and I'm loving my goodies.  Sorry for the poor picture quality, but here is a quick snapshot of the custom gloss I ordered.  I'm loving it!  It looks good on it's own, and I think it'll look amazing over a dark red lipstick.

That is so pretty!! I've debated about getting custom colors, now I think I have to.

What opacity is that?  Did you pick a Shiro color (I think you may have told us this, but I am old, cut me some slack :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> ) or did you ask them to come up with a certain color?

It's Mockingjay, and I selected the more opaque option.  I figured more opaque is better since I can always sheer it out :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Ugh, first thing in the morning, already spending money. :lol: Of course I hit up NM, got minis in 5 By 5, I Call It Mr. Pointy and Lost in L.A. and then because there were there on the "new products" page, picked up minis of Sympathy for the Devil, Hallelujah and a sample of Visions. My freebie was Shadow of Things. :ph34r: /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  Now I need to go back to bed...

 
OITNB order completed, I just can't say no :wub:   My husband gonna be mad, I think I'll tell him it's things I need for work. I mean....I need eyeshadow, right?

Ok but that's the last thing I'm ordering. Except when ghost puffs restocks at HoG. Really, I'm serious this time. :ph34r: /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
I grabbed all the Winchester gospels in mini and a couple coffin kissers! My VC should be here tomorrow so I'm excited for that. I need to stop though lol I want the oitnb collectors tin but I can't yet hopefully it doesn't sell out before I can grab it!

 
Definitely going to be making a NM purchase today. Does anyone know if we can use the code from the VC for an FDF purchase? Also, I can't remember if it was a unique code. If it's not a unique code, could someone PM me it? I'm house/dog/catsitting and won't be home until tomorrow but I want to get a bunch of stuff today. 

ALso, probably won't be able to resist the DG OITNB collection much longer. I have a lot of packing to do so I think if I can get a good amount done tomorrow night and Sunday after work, that will be my reward for a productive weekend. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
@ I don't remember the code, but I do know it has been included in every single order/VC I've received, and it has been the same code. If you have the one from last month, it's still the same code.

ETA And you can use the code for FF, but the total after discounts and before shipping must hit the $10 increment.

I'm definitely getting the DG OITNB stuff but I just haven't gotten around to it yet.  Since it's already Friday, I'm going to wait til Monday to see what the next gwp is because I'm not too keen on this weeks.

Since the WG stuff is permanent I'm going to wait to see what you guys think! I really love some of them but I need to start being more choosy!!  HoG is happening though.  I sold a few things so now I have $50 in my paypal account which is going straight towards ghost puffs and s'mores ALL THINGS!  Literally everything that comes in s'mores, I'm getting.

 
Ohhh the Black Violet / Shiro Color is sooo pretty. But do I need more things? (Obviously yes. The answer is always yes). Who has favorites from Black Violet?? 

 
I haven't actually ordered anything from Black Violet, but I've smelled Affogato and if you're into that sort of thing, it was pretty amazing.

Paper Dolls seems to be there most popular and I am seriously considering a blind buy of the full size.  Although I love the description of Celebration, and it will be a ltd.  So maybe I will switch full sizes.  Also considering balms or drams of Steel Petals, Valley of the Temples, Red Lotus and Madame Pele.

I have heard good things about Lady Grey.  And I have heard a couple of people say they thought Ice Queen smelled like detergent.

rachel, have you tried haus of gloi's elevensies yet? that is lovely - orange & almonds that dries down to a tea note

 
I'm loving all the upcoming Halloween sets that either have started coming out or are coming out soon.  Halloween is my favorite holiday so I think my no-buy is flying out the window on my witches broom as soon as the collections start appearing in full force.  I need all the Halloween pretties!!!!

 
Uh....so I just found a spoiler on Instagram for the NM VC sub and I have a guess for next month!

If they tend to give a spoiler sample of the next month my guess with "Officer Friendly" is The Walking Dead theme! (especially as its Halloween Month AND the new season is coming out. I know Officer Friendly was a phrase used for Rick and I would be giddy for a WD collection!!)

Yup.  I just got mine, and it's totally a color appropriate for that universe.  I just hope we get it before October 12th!  OTOH, I do already have one collection from GCC based on it, so I will still be able to start things off right.

Now comes my big question:  What do I wear this weekend?  It's comic con time!  I wore GDE Super Shadows for Rose City Comic Con last year and Emerald City CC this year.  Do I go with something from that collection again?  Another fannish collection?  If so, which one?  Or do I rock my very special GDE Rose City shadow that I will be absolutely guaranteed *no one* else will have? 

And nails.  My options are:

http://espionagecosmetics.com/nailed-it/eccc-claws.html (I have three sets of these)

http://espionagecosmetics.com/nailed-it/harlequin.html (purchased for Blazer playoffs that didn't happen)

I'm leaning towards the former just because I don't really want to get in a discussion about anything Batman-related this weekend.  Hmm/  Maybe Rose City eyeshadow and Masks wraps because deep rose and green do not clash, and there's green sparkle in the shadow anyway.

(ETA:  My only other VC thought was SCTV, but that DOES NOT seem likely *at all*.)
