Count me in as well! I need to check if I ordered a sample when I made my discontinued order awhile back.

 
I just went back through my orders, and I forgot that I requested Crimson Horror as one of my free minis with my Notoriously Morbid order, and it looks like it could be a close dupe of Talisman. Once that gets here, I will do some comparison swatches, but here is the website swatch:

Ooh, mine is sitting in my mailbox right now!

Also, just a wee bit more than four hours until the end of the Espionage Kickstarter! Act now or prepare to be jealous!

 
I forgot to share my creations from yesterday! Both need more glitter (always) but other than that I'm pretty pleased with how they turned out!

Also, the camera on my phone is horrible. 


ETA: I ordered some darker colors to play with because all I have right now is basic 'pop' colors & they're all super bright. I like bright, but I like dark more. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I got my Haus of Gloi order! I am in love with Elevenses. Old Cider Haus is my favorite of the fall scents that I ordered. I'm not sure about Pumpkin Patch or Pumpkin Eater yet. I need to smell them on my skin. My free sample was Ghost Puffs, which I was super excited to find. It smells exactly like home made rice krispy treats to me.

 
Yeah I have a sample, but you're right. I'm probably going to try and find a dupe, or put the word out on IMAM tomorrow. Honestly, if I have to I might even try to make it myself, that way I'll never run out.
There's at least one company that does custom shadows, I think it's Dawn Eyes and their prices are supposed to be very reasonable. I think she prefers not to do dupes of indie shadows, but if the color is DC'ed then it should be ok.

 
I GOT GHOSTPUFFS OIL!! There is PROOF THE INDIE GODS LOVE ME!!!!

OMG finally my timing works out where I could actually get it!

And literally 5 minutes after my "ooo look at me my no buy is going so well" post. HA! Ah well it's worth it I am SO EXCITED! I may have thrown in a blood orange marshmallow full size too just because it sounds delicious.

 
@@booperz welcome @@Kelly Silva IRL friend!! TY for posting the restock info :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Debating if I should go for another order or not...Also wondering if they'd combine my shipping/refund one of them seeing as I ordered a mere few days ago LOL. 

Just wanna say Kiss My Sass is ABSURD. Ordered like an hour ago and already have a shipping notification and a message from the owner that my package will go out tomorrow. Hells yes.

If your order hasn't shipped yet, they will probably combine it. You don't even need to do anything, they are pretty good at catching that when they make orders.

Of course! I was too excited about the restock and noticed that most people didn't know it was happening so I figured I would drop in and mention it! 

They should combine it! I think their shipping software pulls up all orders made by the same Paypal address. As long as you didn't get a shipping notification yet, they should be able to combine it.  When they do ship it, you'll get your refund.

I'm thinking I am going to get a Salted Caramel, Hazelnut Latte, and somehow idk how, Pumpkin Queen Whipped Soap that is still in my cart from the original restock a few weeks ago! I feel like bc the Pumpkin Queen stayed in the cart, it's like I should order it right....or is that just asking for it not to make it to me precious grabby hands.

HAAA, just kidding. It was the cart goddesses fraking with me. Byyye Pumpkin Queen Whipped Soap.

Oh my goodness, my nose is happy today.  Black Viloet was waiting n me when I got home.  I LOVE Celebration and will want a full size as soon as she reopens.  If anyone doesn't want their sample, I would be happy to give it a home.  I like Paper Dolls, but the man of the moment told me Celebration smelled like a woman and Paper Dolls smelled like  cat.  So I may regret the full size Paper Dolls purchase.  Or maybe his moment will be over soon...  Sge sent me an Ear Grey freebie, this one I am not so sure about.  So far I do like Steel Petals.  I ran out of body parts, but still need to try Red Lotus, Valley of the Temples and Madam Pele.  So far these are my favorites of the Indie scents.  Oh and I got the anniversary Shiro shadow which looks lovely.

I also received my GDE, with the Oct gap color and the Wed special.  

My Shiro palette came,with a fee jar of Ghosts of colors past.

My samples from Portland Black Lipstick company came.  And I am pretty disappointed in how lovely they look as I swore I would not order from this company again.  I ordered on Aug 20, and she did not ship my order until I asked about it last week.  From what I can gather that is pretty standard.  She doesn't ship until you go asking and then gives some excuse about being behind because of the holidays.  Um, Aug and Sept have what holidays that are big for lipstick orders???  Plus for $2 the samples are a joke.  Barely a smear of  lipstick in a baggie.  I would say if you do order, inquire about shipment time FIRST.  So when you don't get your order in a reasonable time (her email said normal is 3-5 days) you can quote the email.  And then after you place the order respond to the one she send you saying it will be sent by a certain time with your odder number and a comment that you will expect to seed it by x date then.  Also, don't waste your money on the samples.

 
I managed to get one last week, first ever. Do you figure this will be October's? And do you how how long it takes for shipping?
It will be for Oct.  My guess is shipping should be done by the end of this week, but that is just a guess.  I have nt seen a formal announcement.  I have not gotten my shipping notification yet.

 
Aromaleigh got back to me, they have enough to make some jars of Talisman! Anyone who wants one (or 2, or 3...) PM me with your count! She's going to make and batch a put it up on the Clearance site for us! I told her to wait until I get an official count, as a batch is 10 jars.

I just received mine!  (I'm usually the first one here to get this sub because I'm pretty much a straight shot up the freeway in a major city.)  I have a sample sub, so I was *extremely* confused when I opened the package and found not clamshells but what appears to be at least 3g (if not 5g.  They're the same dimensions as GDE jars, but the plastic walls might be thicker) jars.  And FOUR shadows.  And a blush.  And three samples, including a Spectrum Cosmetics lip gloss in what I believe is a 3g jar.  AND THAT IS NOT ALL.  But I will stop there.

(And as a side note, the Espionage Kickstarter ends in a little over half an hour, and so many stretch goals have been unlocked that I will be getting FOUR glittery Baker Street and FOUR glittery Lunar Phase wraps!  I'm going to go take a shower now, and then I'll settle in to watch the last few minutes rack up the dollars.  I'm hoping for a miracle that results in a last-minute surge to $150k.)
