Thank you everyone, for the thoughtful replies and nice compliments :oops: You all are just too sweet! I can't WAIT to order. I'm doing my best to restrain myself for now, because my fiance and I just closed on our new house this past Friday, and well, there's already been several trips to pick up much needed items for our first home. He's got a great job out here, but I'm still unemployed (I find out tomorrow if I got the job I interviewed for) so I am waiting until I get that glorious first paycheck to place an order so I don't feel too guilty.

For now, I'm just drooling and "wishlist" shopping--my wishlist is already a mile long, hehe. I truly appreciate all the suggestions, as it gives me a great starting point for things that will work for me. I tend to doubt myself when picking out makeup!

And I agree with you all about wedding makeup. I want to look naturally radiant on my wedding day--a luminous bride! We have plenty of time to figure out the makeup, unfortunately :( We just found out that between his work schedule and the limited ability of his family to travel, it looks like our wedding will have to wait until next summer. Looking on the bright side, that just gives me plenty of time to get my look down pat! :) Once I get several samples, I will probably be posting much more (with photos!) to get plenty of advice (my fiance is absolutely NO help in that department!).

So thank you again, for such a warm welcome and such wonderful advice :) I look forward to the sampling and testing process!

Ok, so I didn't last as long as I thought I would, but the $.50 eyeshadows just called my name, and I couldn't resist :D I got my order today and i'm in LOVE with everything I tried. I did the wink wink nudge nudge combo that I've read about here with some vanilla to highlight, and I'm going to need all 3 colors in a full size for sure. And carnal is a simply breathtaking blush. It's my new favorite!

And tomorrow I get to wake up and do it all again! That's the worst part about getting an order, I think... only being able to do one look until the next day! (For me anyway... I don't want to wash it off and "waste" it, lol).

I agree with you, when I get an order I just want to try everything at once.
