karen, i have a question about the international mystery adventure club: what value will be printed on the monthly packages? will you be able to split the price into 3? because, if the full price would be printed on the first package, that would exceed my limit of 30 usd in order to be tax free.

oh, and as with every new collection: i checked out everything and went :o and then :D and now i have to give my retinas a little break, otherwise i'd be tempted to throw caution and reason over board and order EVERYTHING!! it all looks perfect!!

This is an amazing collection Karen and SN Crew!!!

I haven't started putting items in my cart yet, but I will be in just a couple of minutes. :D I think there's going to be a lot of shuffling as I try and figure out what to get.

Question about the Slick Sticks: I know you said not to keep ALGs in a pants pocket because of body heat. Would you suggest the same for the Slick Sticks, or are they okay to keep in pockets?

Off to work on my cart!!!

The value on the packages should be under $20...so you should be all set there even if the exchange rate changes.

I put just a tiny bit more wax in these- and so far they're holding up well in my pockets. Although I've washed a few lippies in my time, so I try to keep them in my purse.

The new collection looks really nice! I am enjoying all the different colors.

For the Slick Sticks, in terms of glossiness, would you say they are glossier than ALG? I hope so! I've been wanting to have a lipstick that applies sheer and has the glossiness of a lipgloss if that even makes sense.

The Slick Sticks are ALG's but I substituted vanilla for menthol, left out the plumper and added just a little bit more wax to make up for the thickening power of the plumper. Other than the flavor I don't think anyone could tell the difference.

Nothing is limited edition, but I'm not committing 100% to the Slick Sticks just yet. It's going to depend on what you all think of them...I like the idea a lot, but I never really know until it's live and we have feedback from you.

I'm excited for MAC too!

Thank you Karen! The spring collection looks amazing!

I also cannot wear ALGs because of menthol so I'm really excited about the Slick Stick formula. I like vanilla and the colours look so pretty that I'll probably end up ordering all of them :)

Thanks for the sheer red too, it looks gorgeous!
