@@meaganola, @@marigoldsue I have gotten her sample size lipglosses and personally, I find the clamshell a bit of a pain to work with. I almost wish they were like the mini's that fyrinnae uses. Yzma's Llama is supposed to fantastic and is in my cart right now :X

I know GDE is pretty popular and I'm an indie baby, but if anyone needs swatches of shamrock, boardwalk, cheapskate, frankenglamour, surprise, pinch of pixie, graves in May, midnight kiss, jailhouse jumpsuit (this ones getting gifted to a friend....SO ORANGE), mushroom, or chocolate let me know:)

YES, please! :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I actually don't have any of those. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Frankenglamour & Mushroom have been on my wishlist for months...I just always end up finding something I want/need more!

Mushroom was on my wish list from the time I first looked at GDE, but I kept passing it up for whatever reason. I got a sample with my last order, and I regret not purchasing it before. It's so gorgeous and smooth and just everything. I plan on getting a full size with my next order.

I ended up passing on the free blush code. I will wait until the next sale so I can get the August GWP. The July GWP is really pretty, but I didn't need two.

 
Adding another vote for Mushroom! My perfect neutral eye is Katie's Storm all over the lid up to the brow with Mushroom smudged in the crease and outer corner.

 
I did some GDE swatches a few pages back and FrankenGlamour was on there if you need to see it @allistra44. FrankenGlamour is the green one near the middle. Second row, 3rd swatch.


 
I received my grab bag today!  I ordered sample jars and I received girlfriend sweater, blueberry lush, bittersweet (was thinking of ordering this!), my belle, and frankenglamour.  I also received the gwp which is boardwalk which is so pretty!  Oh, and two sample baggies in hitch hiker and frat boy (was also interested in this so happy to try it).  Everything looks so pretty!  i can't wait until I have some time to play with everything.  I'm happy I went with the grab bag.  Blueberry lush looks awesome but I don't know if I would have ever ordered it on my own but now I will experiment.  :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

I would love to graves in May! I just ordered it but a preview swatch would be swell!! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

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

  I've definitely had that problem before. Now I use the little stickies app on my mac and keep a list of packages I'm waiting for. (Of course I also have another list of stuff I want to buy too.)

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" />

If that's a How to Train Your Dragon reference, I will definitely be checking out Shiro in the very near future.
Also, super stoked by GDE order already shipped out today!

 
Goodness.  I don't know if I'd ever use a black with purple shift, but I have to have it just because I'm in love with Toothless!  How to Train Your Dragon is one of my favorite kid movies & I adore it.  MUST HAVE NIGHTFURY!

Haha I would love to get it, but my 4 year old LOVES Toothless too and he would find that jar no matter how well I hid it!  I would have "Night Fury" all over my walls, floor, his face, hair, clothes, etc.  SIGH.

 
@ @@trekkersangel One of the nominees for Shiro's June CotM was called Toothless! Description was "deep black with purple shimmer and green sparks" - it lost to Chinchillin' though.

Updates: one, I ate egg rolls instead of pizza. Because I know you care. Two, my husband's comment "did you just put eyeshadow on your hand and go outside to take a picture of it?" YES I DID. Clearly he isn't a makeup fan.

Anyways swatches! Top row is bare, bottom row is urban decay bondage. In order:

Midnight kiss-love this!

Frankenglamour- love this too!

Graves of May- does a lot better with the sticky base. Camera isn't picking it up (and excuse the crappy iPhone photo) but there's a a really pretty silver running through this one

Mushroom- GO BUY IT ALL OF YOU

Chocoholic- this was a free sample and I love it!!! Will be perfect for fall.

I think I need to add Chocoholic to my wishlist.

I bought Graves in May during the recent B2G2 sale, and I'm really enjoying it. I do have a hard time getting it to show up on my lids though, even with a sticky base.

I'm very eager to try their products but I'm on a makeup no-buy for August because I simply have too much stuff :blush:

Meow Cosmetics Page: http://www.meowcosmetics.com/

They have a bunch of seasonal collections, so make sure to check out the What's New page

EDIT: Code seems to work for $40+ orders, but the description makes it sound like the 25% off discount is supposed to work for all orders - hopefully it gets fixed soon

Oh yay.  I have been wanting to try the foundation and the brow beaters.

And in other news, my Fyrinnae order has shipped.  I did remember placing an order, but I had no idea I had ordered so many things.  Five lip lustre minis, a blush, a highlighter and seven shadows.
