I got mine from Whole Foods.

I'd suggest PM'ing individuals with your offer (those that have noted requests here) and/or putting that you'll take CPs in your sale thread (if you have one...if you don't, you can start a sale thread stating that you'll take CP requests).

I was really excited about getting Hipness. However, now that I've heard the color is different then it was with fafi, do you all think I would be better off getting the Marine Life highlighter instead?

I would get Marine Life. When I tested it on my hand, I liked the two different colors blend together. There are dupes for Hipness but not Marine Life. Also, I don't see that Marine Life will be re-launched any time soon.

I just swatched Deep Throat next to Hipness & DT is more Peachy, Hipness is more Pink. So I think Marine Life is going to be a little brighter & more coral then Hipness or DT

But remember, that is on my skin & it may appear differently on someone else's.

Is there anyone who has Fun Bathing and O that could swatch them next to each other? I was reading Temptalia and saw she mentioned that O is a pretty close dup for Fun Bathing.

I do sometimes fall for the hype, but I'm still resisting Marine Life!!! The true test will be when I go on the launch day!

I was wondering if I should've gotten hothothot?


Elegant, I was hoping that it would have some pink to it as well. I'm wondering if it'll appear a bit more pink layered over a pink base? I was planning on trying it out with the pale pink e/s that was released with the last starflash collection (ya, I'm not even going to try to figure out the name!)

You can always call the store and say that you are coming to the preview party and you would like them to hold it for you. That is what I did last year with the Style Warriors collection.

Btw, does anyone know if they check your id at the door since they serve cocktails? Not that I am underage or anything lol.


For the most part the stores do have decent stock but last year during the style warrior party they didn't get in the nail polishes in time for the preview party. That is the only time that has ever happened to me though.

InspiredBlue I love your To The Beach look! You look gorgeous and have beautiful skin.

Yes they do check your id and you get a ink stamp on your hand if you are old enough to drink.

when i went to the naughty nauticals part they didn't check id's. i suppose it's what you look like(if you look younger/older yanno?) and how strict they are individually
