No, Mikie you are not alone in thinking that the lippies a decadent. I got mine yesterday and am in love with them, These will definately see alot of wearing time. I do have on in my cart that I plan on ordering as a gift. THe reciepent saw Carpe Diem today and loved the color, so a Thank You for all the extra things she does for me at work , I think I"ll surprise her.

I also really like Live , Laugh , and Love. I have to say that Cream meets Vanilla is the perfect highlight color.

Oh I finally got my goodies!!! These are my favorite lippies yet! yum yum yum yum yum... I might need backups since black label is LE. hmmmm....

[Xarata]

yes. yes. ordered two more of monarch. This is the FIRST SN lippie that I will be wearing AS a lip balm and color. I usually wear a balm underneath my other lippies but this one I will be using as both. Great job, Karen! Would love to see black label lippies become a permanent part of the site even if these colors must remain LE. As it is, I'm glad my indulgence is going to a good cause.

Is there any way the black label lippies can be sold at a higher price? I know that would be a little outside the normal price range for SN, but... what do you think? I am not sure what you mean by calling in favors to achieve these special products, but if the issue is cost, just wondering which gals love them enough to pay a higher price for them - I haven't tried mine yet but expect them to be fabulous. Sephora routinely charges $20-25 for inferior glosses, so... I dunno, I would pay $15-18 for something as nice as these seem to be.

Hmmm...now I am just pondering aloud here...but on the black label lippies, it seems the issue was/is Karen's cost & the fact that (bless her heart) she decided that $6 of our price goes to the Komen Foundation. Now, when this campaign ends on Oct.31st, any remaining stock (as if!!!LOL!!!) could still be sold at the $9.95 price point & Karen could at least have her profit margin on those. I don't know how close to the bone the price point was set (if the amount weren't going to the cause) but it stands to reason that Karen wouldn't offer them at a loss...so I would venture a guess that the $9.95 was set to include her profit if money weren't coming right off the top. That's my reasoning. Could be all wet, LOL, but I *always* think in bottom-line terms. Now, getting the ingredients may be the issue, for all I know.

Hollis & Samantha, glad you got yours & that you share my exuberance over these,LOL! *DECADENT*! Zeebs, you're going to LOVE them!

Using the Change Address on SN's site was a simple matter & PERFECT for HONORING & SURPRISING loved ones! The address book feature needs to be expanded to hold more than 5 names,ROFL!!! Shopping at its easiest! Enabling at its best!

More swatches!!!!!

[Ghost]

Okay - Going to pretend that I just didn't see what Jen just posted (whistling a tune, while looking away and back at the computer screen)

Nope not craving them at all. and even though I can't had mine yet and haven't seen them in real life, I'm not thinking of ordering another batch at all. Suddenly feeling like Dawn French in the vicar of dibly and the Colours for a Cause is the chocolate fountain

[lcash]

Oh, c'mon, Ghost, you know you really want them!! Besides it's for SUCH a good cause, and we can think positive thoughts about that good cause every time we wear them!! Great for gifts, too!! You know you've gotta have'm........ Lauren

[~*mikie*~]

Lauren's right, Sarah!!! You just *can't* be waiting for your birthday to open them!!! AND you'll need *back-ups* anyway, right?

The swatches are FANTASTIC, Jen! You do WONDERFUL work!
