Tom from 8ty8 quoted me the following shipping charges (this was 2 months ago so I'm not sure if they have changed) : - 1-6 bottles of nail polish $15.00 US - 7-12 bottles of nail polish $30.00 US The above is quoted for Global-Priority Mail International, the most basic one - without tracking or insurance. HTH! I might just have bad luck with them but if you do put in an order let us know how it goes!

Thanks guys!!! Thats all I need to know!

I wont bother with them - I dont have time to chase people for stuff and with the free priority ship with maiandjays I am just going to keep buying there. They have a slight higher point sale price - but that is totally negated with the shipping when we buy 10+ ~ as some of us already know

I was SO pleased with the service I got from them and will go back! I am chasing down Strawberry Fields - they dont have it atm

Thank you!

No mail yesterday and today is a holiday but I have hope for tomorrow.
My current nailpolishes want some new company!

^^ If I get to visit MAC on Monday, I am planning to stop by at DJ and check out OPI display. Apparently they have new stock and I also noticed with my last visit that they had some of the shades that maiandjays didn't have. Do you ladies ever pay full price and buy OPI polishes here?

^ I've only did it once, but other than that I'm pretty patient

Off topic here, but did anyone have a Grand Duo haul?? I'm still contemplating whether I should get a couple (moonriver and light over dark). Are they HG material?? Because I'm kinda broke atm and I only want to get stuff that I'd actually use on a regular basis!

 

[sambibabe]

^^ Hmmm.. Yes 'patience' is the key.. Hope I can hold off

I bought 5 of GD mineralised blushes. Do you have Soft & Gentle MSF? If you have it, then perhaps you don't need Moon River. I don't know much about Light over Dark as it is the one that I don't have, out of GD. I think CatsMeow has it?

 

[simplyenchantin]

Lol I didn't realise you got so many GD Nat!! I got sucked in by Moon River even though I wasn't going to get it at first..

Yeah, I am a sucker for MES and MB

How is the studying going? It is such a beautiful day outside.. A perfect day to stroll around Chapel St!

I havw light over dark, its AMAZINGLY pigmented, its crazy. Its a perfect bronzer type colour for me (im nc15), its the only GD i got, and i love it

 

[rockin26]

Don't ya just love it when you leave MAC with one of the big bags? I hauled for my kit today, I got

Brule e/s
All The Glitters e/s (so friggin pretty!)
Sable e/s
Shale e/s
Silver Ring e/s

Studio Fix fluid NC15, NW25, NW35

Also popped into Gorgeous Cosmetics and picked up a 4 e/s pallet and 2 lippies and I ordered the coastal scents 28 neutral e/s pallet (thank Jen, I'd been eyeing it off on their wesbite for weeks).

So I think I'm good for bridal for a while!

^^ I only bought two of the Grand Duo blushes and to me they arent HG material..

I got Moon River and Intenso. Btw - it may be the differences in skin tone but I dont find Moon River and Soft & Gentle anything alike...

 

[tana2210]

just a quick one, how long does it averagely take to get a parcel from the us? thats is assuming a private seller has already posted it.

 

[MrsMay]

^^ It's usually between 1-2.5 weeks

Yeap, to me, they are similar. I use them when I just want some shimmery sheen on my face without giving any colour. On my hand, Moon River looks very close to Blonde MSF (light side), but Blonde enlarges my pores, not Moon River or S&G.

Nice haul, Jeanette!! Never heard of nocti..

How is Zara? I can't wait for mine to arrive

 

[melmaha]

Had a great experience at Myer Melbourne counter today - called up to confirm that Colour Ready and Sugarsweet were being released today, and the lovely guy that took my call offered to put a few things on hold for me, because he said the collections were selling very well.

So...I went in this afternoon and picked up the Prep and Prime Transparent Powder and MSF in Perfect Topping <3 Great service and I can't wait to go back there!!

 

[simplyenchantin]

Ooh I didn't realise Colour Ready was out today! I didn't even see the stand for it at Myer Melbourne haha.

Nuff said!

Two sellers on ebay that sell ZOYA have nocti and Nip Tuck caught my eye immediately!

I posted this yesterday in the nailpolish swatch thread. What an insane color (in a positive way)!

It is a bit darker in real light.. my camera couldn't get the color right.

I haven't used Zara yet but either it or Breathe Life will be on my nails after Nip Tuck.

 

[simplyenchantin]

That's hot!!
