Dang it.  I totally missed the sample sizes of the blushes when I placed my order last night.  There were a couple that I really wanted to try, but I have so many I could not justify getting more than the one in full size.  Oh well, I guess I now have a GDE wish list for the next sale :)

Always! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Seriously, every time I place an order..I go back & fill up my cart for the next sale. It's ridiculous!

Between Freebie Wednesdays and Flash Sale Saturdays, I've been placing a lot or orders lately.. 

 
Oh! Another good one for Bath/Body/Hair stuff is The Gnarly Whale.  http://www.thegnarlywhale.com/

They actually sell them at Urban Outfitters now, but I still consider them kinda indie. They're based out of my hometown! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

ETA: They are a LITTLE pricey though, IMO.

I ordered Start a Rumor too! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I ended up with...Start a Rumor, Risky Business, Peach is the New Blush, Day Job, & Heart Breaker. 

Is it crazy that I want to buy samples of the blushes I already have so that they all match...?!

Ahhh I love all those! I should have got some blush samples, but I feel like I keep getting new blush lately! (Not that I have any less eyeshadow or anything lol)

Anyone else have a problem where they ordered so much in a short timeframe...you have no idea what you ordered?

Um yeah...that would be me.  I don't even know where all I have orders pending.  I probably should go through my PayPal and Debit card statements and make a list so I will know if I have any orders that don't show up.

ETA:  I am kind of afraid to do this as I might just figure out how much I actually spent during the process.

This is so me right now. I should be getting my Aromaleigh package (Sherlock gorgeousness) today or tomorrow.

I'm totally holding out on ordering until tomorrow when all the new colors of the month & GWP comes out! I might go nuts tomorrow!

haha YES! Like I'm thinking maybe I ordered blush from somewhere...but I thought that was GDE and I've gotten that order...hmmmm...

- I know I have Shiro coming, that's shipped...I think.

- I haven't gotten any updates from Notoriously Morbid, but TAT is 10-14 days and we're not even half of that yet...so I'm not overly conerned.

- Nothing from Victorian Disco either...but that's like 5 weeks and Im going to forget about that order

- I feel like I have another one somewhere too but I'm not sure.....

 
I can't wait to see all of these hauls! I really need to swatch all the stuff I ordered in the last few weeks or so. 

 
I haven't been able to place too many orders recently, but I'm totally waiting til tomorrow to place a Shiro order to see if I like the CotM! Red Viper just wasn't my fave...

 
I never THINK I've placed that many orders...until my poor mail lady is ringing my doorbell and I answer to see  her holding a STACK of boxes for me. Probably owe her a really good tip for Christmas this year!

 
On the topic of Notoriusly Morbid, there's a shipping update! Orders placed through the 22nd will ship tomorrow! Whoo! My Camelot shadows are almost on their way! One I'm done with the third season of Teen Wolf, I'm totally starting Merlin.

Ok that makes me feel way better, my order was placed 7/25 so I probably still have some time. Thanks for the update!

Looks like Nightfury is winning the facebook poll so far! The description is purple-shifting black - am curious to see how this turns out :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Bahah, I was just thinking the same thing. Especially the last few months, I've been ordering like woooah + Memeboxes. My poor mailman is like WTF is this girl okay?? Just some retail therapy mister postman. 

 
Meh, not a fan of that, either. Thank you!!! May as well just place my order now.

TOO MANY CHOICES:

Order Possibility #1:

Nic Cage Nibbling Petit Fours in a Posh Victorian Tearoom

Yzma's Essence of Llama

Eyeshadow Sample (leaning towards Maiden Queen)

OP #2:

Nic Cage Nibbling (&etc.)

A Girl & A Cat

Lipgloss Sample (leaning towards Nic Cage Churning Butter One Crisp Thanksgiving Morn)

Oh the agony of Decision!

 
Oy vay, is GDE fast!!! I ordered on Tuesday; it's clear across the country and out for delivery today! I cannot wait to play with the pretties!

Incidentally, is ther ea way to upload pictures directly from a phone, without having to send them to Facebook, and copy and paste and not even know for sure if it will work? Because swatching may be a fun way to spend the weekend!

 
How are the Shiro lip samples?  I ordered lip samples from someone else and had a really hard time working with them.  Trying to decide if I order several samples, or just order the one I think I want most.
