Wow, I can't believe Call Me keeps selling out everywhere! All of the blushes are sold out on the R&R official site. I got it with the last Hautelook sale -- I'm so glad I snagged it! I think you have to get on the second the sale starts on those sites. I know sites like Gilt and Ideeli have R&R sales and maybe Hautelook will do another one, too. Call Me is really worth tracking down -- the perfect glowy peach blush.

I tried to get call me but it was in someone's basket and I got tired of waiting. Instead I got X-Rated and I have Kinky coming in the mail from R&R's 50% off sale they had on their website. I have not ordered from Beauty Story yet but I emailed their customer service this morning and they replied to me within twenty minutes and added a discount to my order as well! So far I am impressed, but we'll see about when my product arrives.

Ah, I see. They gave me a percentage back for the inconvenience also, but it was less than 20%. I didn't get any free items either. Oh well.
Beauty Story emailed me an awesome coupon to use on the R&R sale. It was too good of a deal to pass up since the blushes were half off, so I decided to use it and got Kinky & Tease. In the comments section, I asked if they could package the items well and mark the item as fragile. Hopefully, everything arrives safe and sound =X

I think they're trying to prove themselves again with Beauty Story. I've emailed them several times and their CS is pretty good. I asked him if i can use my store credit at both EC/BS since they're under the same ownership, but he said that they're not, so maybe they're really under different management. |

I ordered a few things and I hope it's all packaged well.
My order from R&R's site should be arriving this Thursday.

What is it with them and their packaging procedures? I got a blush today that was rattling around in the box -- just one piece of tissue. I am amazed it remained intact also! Whenever I have ordered from hautelook, everything comes packed in tissue. The R&R warehouse needs to learn how to ship!
Foreplay is the blush I got today. I am pretty cool toned, so I hope it works on me. I can always put a pop of brighter blush on top if I need to.
I hope everyone can get their hands on Call Me

I was gonna buy Kinky and Bedroom today but they were both sold out. I was sooo sad because i was waiting for the sale since last week
I decided to get Foreplay though, couldn't bear to see the code unused. It's not as popular as Call Me or Kinky, but i hope it'll look good and natural on me

Rock & Republic is sooo addicting! Within a few weeks, i bought:
Blushes:
Call Me
All Nighter
X-Rated
Kinky
Foreplay
Spank
Eyeshadow:
Tempting
I have never ever bought this many items within a few week span before! I'm usually the kind of person who buys 1-2 things in a month, so this is definitely a new thing for me. Hopefully i wont regret it!

I got my order from R&R today. The packaging wasn't the greatest.
1 thing of bubble wrap on the bottom of the box & 1 piece of tissue paper.
THE BLUSHES ARE GORGEOUS THOUGH! I want more!

^^Yeah, the wrapping from the R&R site is so lame! Good thing they come in those sturdy hat boxes -- or I can imagine they would arrive completely smashed. So fun how many people are loving the blushes. They are truly amazing -- I have 5 now and really love them (Call Me, Kinky, Spank, Tease, Foreplay). The 50% off sale has probably sent their sales through the roof. Now, if only other makeup brands would do the same sale
The shadows are also amazing!

Bummer. I hope they refunded your shipping costs, too. Are they making you send the primer back? Whenever I have had a problem with a MAC online product, they have just refunded me and never made me send the faulty product back. I wonder if R&R will do the same??

Would anyone know how R&R's Lust compares to MAC's Sunbasque? I just bought Sunbasque because I completely forgot that I had Lust at home. They look very similar in pan, and I don't really want to swatch Sunbasque so that I can exchange it untouched or maybe swap it if they are similar to each other. TIA!

Thank you! I also looked up karlasugars Sunbasque swatch to do a comparison and it looks as if Lust has a more red undertone, while Sunbasque has a more peachy undertone. Looks like I'll be keeping it
