Saw first swatches of the Lacquered UP from PPU, think I might skip that one.
I'm not impressed with Stackry's work this time, it took them nearly a week to consolidate, and they left all the outer packaging in the box when they shipped (but ripped all the outer bubble mailers right across which makes them virtually unusable again). No wonder it was so expensive for so few polishes, it wasn't any sort of attempt to make the package fit into a smaller box. Fedex delivered a day earlier than scheduled though, so that's nice.
I've also FINALLY had a shipping notice from Hypnotic, I hope I don't end up with a big customs bill for those three polishes.
Still holding back on the RC order!

Sometimes they do that for me too, sometimes they take everything out, sometimes even from the bubble wrap! They also once put a perfume tester bottle with no cap standing up, but didn't use a tall enough box, so several sprays were missing from the bottle as the lid pressed on the nozzle, and the whole box stank. I mean it was a nice perfume, but I prefer it on me, not the box. When I tried to complain, they kept insisting that I fill in a claim form with FedEx. Told them several times it had nothing to do with FedEx, but them not using a tall enough box or not lying the bottle down, but didn't get anywhere. Ugh.

I ended up swapping the Different Dimension with the Alchemy. I was going to get the Polish Molish, but they never received it, so they said it'll be added to next month's shop.

I like the Alchemy! It was tempting me!

Ugh, they've now added the Polish Molish to the UK site. There's no order combining, so I've had to e-mail Annette RC to add it to my order. Hope she responds before it sells out. I refuse to pay postage on one polish when I already got free shipping.
What do you think of the FTLOP box? I like the PfD, but not going to buy the box as I don't really care for either of the other 2. I can't really afford it anyway, so that's that.
Luckily I also don't want any of the new Femme Fatales. I have to put off ordering from EdM now, hopefully none of the LEs I like sell out before I can order.

Good luck with RC, I have my doubts though.
I only like the PfD in FTLOP so not going there.
Shame about the EdMs hope they still have them when you're ready. I bought some Shleees yesterday, going to Stackry, hopefully to join my as yet unshipped Lemmings. Got the two PPUs I wanted too, but to UK.
Anitacska

It was fine, she responded pretty quickly and sent me an invoice. All good
I'll live if I miss out on some of the EdMs. I've way overspent again, really embarrassed and annoyed now at my non-existent self control.
Which PPUs did you get in the end?
PearlyQueen

I'm shocked and pleasantly surprised!
I got Lemming and Nailed It.
I feel you with the overspending, I have the same problem.

So was I, lol!

God my brain has turned to mush. So I was putting Shleees onto my spreadsheet - and noticed I had ordered a duplicate. Messaged her to cancel that item. Carried on with spreadsheet. Found a second duplicate in the order. Messaged her about that one as well, mentioning the first item to cancel as well. Then realised on the second message I'd put the wrong name for the first cancellation along with the new one (I think - not on email, on store DM). Sent her a third message correcting the second one! I am so embarrassed, I've no idea if she'll cancel both the ones I don't want, one I don't want and one I want, none of them or all of them, and who can blame her if she gets annoyed with me? All my own fault too, it's that stupid "must get before sell out" brainrush, I forgot to check the list. Probably wouldn't have ordered at all if I hadn't wanted those two as well as the other three, I don't know what's going on with me. Pathetic. Serves me right if I have to pay to ship them from Stackry and I already have them. Or get nothing. Or whatever.
Anitacska

Sorry, I had to laugh. Hopefully she'll cancel the right ones.
I haven't bought a duplicates in ages, but I also haven't really ordered from anywhere other than PPU and Femme Fatale lately. FF never restocks, so no chance of ordering duplicates, same with PPU.
Oh, just remembered, Annette sent me an email after the Tonic preorder to say that one of the Girly Bits I also added to the order had oversold and asked if I wanted to swap it or get a refund. I replied and asked that since the Tonic preorder won't ship for a while, would she be getting any more Girly Bits, and if not, I'd like a refund. Haven't heard since.

With RC, you often only find out when the order ships or even arrives!

So here's a load of out of focus and generally rubbish pics of last week's mani, Let's Get Fizzical by Nailed It! (Are you singing the song now?):
I love this and as you can see it has many moods.

Just heard back from Ashley at Shleee, she's always so helpful and is sorting out a refund for my (correct) dupes. She must have me down as a right fool! But no hint of it in her message!

Got my refund from Shleee, so that's good!
And my Hypnotic Polish order finally arrived - safely and without additional charges to pay! I would use them again.
Also had a shipping notice from Lemming at last, yay!
Have you seen the new Garden Path halloween collection coming out? I've just had a glimpse and they're calling me...

Good news all around!
On the other hand, I got my shipping notice from RC and refund for the sold out Girly Bits - except I paid £11.50 and she only refunded £10.98! Wtf is she playing at?! I've emailed her back, but no reply yet. Safe to say I won't be ordering from her again. And I'm seriously considering not buying from PPU UK again.
