^ the customs thing is more to do wirth how much you have purchased. if the item is marked as a gift you don't pay customs. however if you spend more than £18 then you have to pay the customs fee. which is usually only a couple of pounds but royal mail take about £8 as an admin fee. and this holds up the shipping process because they seem to hold it for an extra week or so.

I am dying of anticipation for more swatches of Later. It sounds like my absolute dream product MAC + purple + black + pigment = bliss. But, unfortunately I may not be able to wear it immediately as it started reaching 105 F yesterday. Can't wait to see what the rest of summer has in store for the Arizonans. Black eye makeup + extreme heat = NO.

oh i see. well generally shipping from the states to the uk is about 7 days. so hopefully it'll be similar for Italy.

There are some specific issues with Italy. A lot of mail/packages seem to never arrive to their recipients. This is why a lot of ebay sellers refuse to send things to Italy.

Yeah! and Dare to Wear and Lady GaGa? I think she's just made her own assumptions to go with the collections.

For those wanting large orders (or like one of each), you can always put it in a small flat rate box. I can get one packed for $12.78 with delivery confirmation. For first class, to send about 3 pigments, it would be about 3-4$. It's once you start getting 5+ ounces that things start getting expensive. (I ship international almost everyday LOL).
