I feel like the fragrance in both may be the culprit. I know it bothers a lot of people's skin. Personally I don't buy Chanel lipsticks anymore because the Rose scent of them makes me want to vomit. Seriously stomach churning nausea. Now I avoid lipsticks that are scented with anything other than vanilla. No CL or Guerlain lipsticks for me

yeah it might be the scent/fragrance in the products. I know that my skin gets irritated by a lot of creams, skincare etc that are very fragranced.

:crybaby: It's a sad day, I will never forget October 24th of 2015...for it is the day I will have returned my Holiday Balls :cry: My skin has never looked so horrible, I now have five cystic pimples along my jawline...I've broken out SO bad multiple times since using the pearls. I didn't put them directly on my face, so I thought I'd be safe from skin irritation but I was wrong :cry:

Just reading the word "bunnies" puts a smile on my face!

They've brought so much happiness into my family's lives. So huggable and adorable. As long as Nordies doesn't cancel my order of the ballz, I'll be a happy camper. I passed/missed out on Wulong (and Cruel Gardenia - though technically not Meteorites) and regretted it big time; I don't want to make the same mistake.

They are so darling. PM'd you about the balls!!!

PM'ed you back, beautiful! My ballz have shipped from Nordies (early, they originally said November 6 but then moved it up) and should be here by the end of the week via USPS.

I used to have the Meteorites brush, but then when I moved cross-country from MA to CA it disappeared (along with other makeup items and my vacuum). I'm still in denial about it.

I'll have to experiment with other brushes to see what is gentle with and works best with these beautiful ballz.

​My experience with Nordies pre & back orders is that they typically ship prior to the originally projected date.
That's awful about your missing items----ugh---that makes me so mad!!! I can't imagine how you must feel.

I have the Guerlain bronzer brush which is just like the météorites brush but a different color and it's horrid. It sheds so badly that I had to stop using it----I started
seeing red bristles on my face. That brush is a huge disappointment.

Yeah, losing those items was frustrating, especially when the moving company acted like I was imagining things. At least my more valuable items made it safe and sound - I sent a lot of them separately via UPS or USPS with insurance.

I was hoping that Nordies would mail the Meteorites early, but I didn't expect it to be this soon.

After hearing all the rave reviews from you and the other lovely ladies here, I knew I had to have these. And I've always loved snow globes, now more than ever since I grew up in New England and now I haven't seen snow in years!

I will have to try some different brushes. That Guerlain bronzer brush sounds like a big disappointment, especially coming from a luxury brand! I'll have to try my fluffy yet loosely packed brushes with these ballz. I have a Chanel white travel powder brush from years back (from a holiday set I think) that works really well with powders and highlighters.

I'll report back on how I like (or love) these. I love the violette scent of Meteorites (reminds me of the violet pastilles I used to eat when I was younger). So yummy and luxe!

In my hurry to get to the door I banged my shin really hard on a chair. The things we do for makeup!

They're beautiful. But whoever said that they're more shimmery is definitely right! Nice for dreary and dark winter days.

Yay!

Ouch, but lol. Totally something I would do. Especially if hubby was home, I'd need to beat him to the door, lol.

They are shimmery, but I've tried them on my face and the effect isn't bad at all.

Oh my gosh!!!! So many ladies here have mentioned the candies of which these so remind them. What special memories!!!

​ I like to use black or brown bristled brushes because you can see how much product you're getting on the brush. I'm so excited for you!!!

Oh for real. I'm expecting a few packages today and I hope I'm the first to the door. Hubs isn't usually home at this time so I'll try to be creative----I used the "just samples" line last week!
