Oh wow everything looks amazing. Can't believe we have cream foundation, yippee!
Karen, is the baby wash similar or the same as the gumball that was released quite awhile ago? I loved that. The gumballs had a wonderful scent...but I don't know if you kept it the same, and if so, is it the new 'unscented' or 'vanilla and lavender' kind?

It's pretty much the same (I switched to a different brand of the same thickener)! There's an unscented, and the same lavender vanilla "sleepy time" scent that we gumballed. They're both in the same listing to keep it simple.

Yay thanks! Was hoping you would release it but didn't know if I was the one one who liked it :)

It was kind of slow to catch on, but as people started running out we got emails about it. You definitely weren't the only one :)

I just like being able to offer it. It took about 2 years to get it "just right", and I'm really happy that it's finally live and at least a handful of people like it.

:shock: :o AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! *passes out*

There are so many goodies!!! I'm so excited! Thank you Karen!


Edit: Karen, I'm a bit confused with the cream foundation shades... I don't really know where I am on that chart. Are you able to give us a guide based on how many scoops of white we use? I think I'm 1 Buttery Gold : 6 or 5 All Purpose...

:o :o :o :o Ohhhh my goodness! I'm not sure how, but every time there is a release I think you couldn't possibly outdo the last one....and yet, you always do!
A cream foundation!! I just about cried. I struggle so much to find a natural foundation that is light enough, so I am excited and hopeful!
The the new lotions and body wash and eyeshadows...oh my! I ordered the cream shadow with green interference. I am waiting to find my right foundation shade, and then I'll order a f/s of that and add another shadow and maybe the peach gloss.

Again Karen--you, Kris and the wonderful SN ladies have worked so hard...and pulled off another gorgeous and exciting release. Thank you for all your work!

Are the cream foundations good for acne prone skin? I ordered a bunch of sample size for color and am hoping they will be good for my acne prone skin!

Thank you!!! The foundation was the tough part, but I love it!
For acne prone skin- it's fairly friendly, but nothing is 100% when you're talking about allergies or acne. It's the same oil that's in Awesome Sauce, and it's the one that they use in "oil free" moisturizers.

For 1:5 buttery gold it should be somewhere in the G40-60 range. Probably G50.

Before I place my order, I did want to double-check and ask if the CCS can be the freebie with $35? Probably not but I remember it was mentioned earlier.

As far as I know, it's only a lip balm (no black label etc) or loose powder shadow. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Happy ordering :D
