My space for my lightbox and where I do my photos was getting a little messy with all the stuff I had yet to swatch all sitting there. So, I turned two Memeboxes into extra storage for what I still have to swatch. I tried to organize it by when I want to post the review, and each compartment is a different brand/collection. The other box not shown has all the Hello Waffle collections that just arrived.

 
Figured I'd ask again in case people missed it since I had added it into a previous post as an edit - anyone have experience with GDE's hydraglazes? I've thought about getting them but always refrained since there aren't sample sizes.

Also looking at placing an order with with CocoaPink and I'm considering getting the fall sampler but I wanted to try a few other things too. There's just so many scents that it's overwhelming. (Eta - actually I'd say that $10.55 for shipping is a huge deterrent for me.)

I've tried the Homicide shade, and it's really pretty. They're fairly sheer, but thick enough to stay put pretty well. Here's a quick swatch of it. 

 
I have not, but here are some reviews for you  :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> http://www.reddit.com/r/Indiemakeupandmore/search?q=debaucherous+bath&restrict_sr=on
Thank you! I think I might go ahead and try it. This brand reminds me a lot of Haus of Gloi with their scents, and the packaging is so adorable.

I've bought six different whipped soaps from six different companies, when I get them I'll let everyone know what I think!

 
Ahh! Tuesday's gonna be a great mail day! HOG, OTM, Aromaleigh AND my boots I ordered from Nordstrom! Killing it!
That will be a great mail day! :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I should also receive my Aromaleigh order on Tuesday, and my CocoaPink...apparently CP gave me 2 day priority shipping even though I didn't pay for it (no complaints here). :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I've been wanting to get a hydra glaze too but I don't really like the colors. I like more Fuschia, berry or coral colored lippies. I do have the homicide one we got to sample and I love the feel of it. I just don't wear it often since it's red. They are like super thick lip gloss that isn't sticky and with tons of color.
I should have my CP fall sampler Tuesday if anyone's on the fence about it. I had read on several blogs that most of the time you get part of the shipping refunded, but I didn't :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />. I ordered like $60 worth though and mostly shampoo so it's probably pretty heavy.

I have several Hydraglazes, and aside from Homicide, they're all just kind of a tint, not super intense color.  Homicide is probably the boldest shade I've tried from the line.  I think I have all of them (including the ones from the Valentine's Day and spring collections) except two at this point.  I keep buying them because I love the texture even though they're more of a wash of color than anything remotely resembling full-coverage!  They're not sticky at all, and I especially love them over a stain:  Apply a stain for color and Hydraglaze for not-dryness.  If you're a fuchsia/hot pink person, I would recommend Sailor's Delight.  It's a lot closer to those colors than the site product photos would suggest (the on-lip photo is more like it).

I love this idea! I may try fashioning one of my Memeboxes like this.

 
Question about HOG.. is there any real benefit to combining a new order with the one I placed a week ago? Will I get a shipping refund or will I just have to wait longer to get everything? TIA guys!!

You will get a refund their system seems to automatically pull all orders going to the same place. Then you get a tracking email for both order numbers, but it's the same tracking number. You don't even need to contact them, they're on it!

You'll get a shipping refund.  They may even combine an order and refund shipping even if you don't request it.  I'm not sure whether it will delay the order, though, because when this happened to me (combined order and refunded shipping), it was on a couple of orders placed a day or two apart.

I have a couple of the Hydraglazes, and I really like the texture and scent.  I was lucky and got to try samples as they came with the OTM a couple times this year.  I think the color of the Homicide Hydraglaze is beautiful.

 
I ordered NMs Wadsworth for a friend and I figured I should order a back up for myself...just in case :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I bought a few samples and the CoTM as well. I feel like I should message her and tell her I can wait for it and that if she wanted she could combine the order with my Grisly Grimoires one.

 
Ooh, it looks like Darling Girl's next GWP is going to be We're All Infected, in honor of tonight's season premiere of _The Walking Dead_!  And it's a lovely shimmery fevered pink.  Although my first impulse is to get a Halloween-oriented collection because it's October, I'm thinking I'll pick up petits of the Only One Can Win collection since this order probably won't get here until November.

 
OH NO! :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I just discovered that when I made my large NM order last month I also made a single shadow "They All Float" purchase seperate and asked to combine orders.
My tracking reflected that they had been combined, but my package was missing "They All Float" :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Super sad. I just sent her a message but I know its a sold out shade now so who knows what she can do. I will live if I don't get it as I already have one from last month's VC but Id love a backup!

Also, Gotta love VDC.....*sarcasm*
We are back to square 1 again.

She told me she would repack my order and send it out Thurs

Friday I finally got fed up and said "So....shipping info?"

a few hours later she was super apologetic and said that she couldn't believe she had forgotten to send it to me the night before.
I got a tracking number.

Number says "Shipping label was created" (Exactly the message I got that never moved ever)
No movement Friday, No movement Saturday, if there is no movement on Tuesday I am going to be pissed.

I am pretty positive she has not shipped my order AGAIN, and only sent me a tracking number email to buy time. Now I see she has a Huge Blizzcon order via FB...yeah, If I ever get my order I will be shocked. I am so irritated.

In positive news, I am at a beach house with an ocean view and its hard to actually be mad about anything when the Oregon coast is so overcast and lovely. haha.
