I decided to order the Amazonian Clay Blush in the cult shade Exposed, and the LipSurgence Matte Lip Tint in Hope, because I love the idea of matte, warm rose lips for fall. I added a sale item to my order, Lock & Roll eyeshadow in Sandstone (they sell for $10 until they're gone).

I reached the limit for free delivery, and received the shipment through Fedex ground. It took 4 days for the order to be shipped, and then another 4 days to reach me in Southern California, so a total of one full week. I was quite impressed by the quality of the shipping box, my items were nestled in foam and covered in bubble wrap, so they were really well protected! It's not always the case (drugstore.com, could you make an effort?) so I appreciate it.

My first attempts at using Sandstone Lock & Roll shadow are not very convincing... the matte liquid beige shade completely disappears on my lid, without brightening them, and it has a greasy, sticky feel. The champagne shimmery powder is much nicer but I don't find the roll on applicator very convenient.
I have to say (almost) nothing is worse than ordering beauty products and the shipper just throwing them in a box! I'm surprised how many big name companies do that!!
