That is pretty darn clever!! Now that I have THREE new Besame lipsticks (and lord help me, I nearly ordered something else today but stopped myself!!), I will remember this clever tip when I have an empty tube!

They're at it again. Order $50 worth of stuff and get the free rose moisture lotion. (which is yummy by the way)


AND a free vanilla or chocolate lip glaze.

I bet they come up with something else by Sunday (the last day of the sale).

That vanity case is great folks, and I think they only have dark left for $7, it's quite large, even if you only used the shadows (beige, brown and black).

I can't wait to get my hands on that vanity case. My husband is standing UPS watch right now.. :D

So, tell me more about the vanity case, so I may live vicariously through you until mine gets here. :rolleyes:

Has anyone received a tracking number or shipping information from them. I have emailed twice and had no response. I really don't want the package sitting outside for hours when it's 110 degrees.

I ordered mine Monday August 1st and I got my tracking number yesterday.

If they didn't email you the tracking number, chances are they haven't shipped it yet Goldwyn Girl. I am in the same predicament, 100 degree weather AND monsoons..

:( good luck!

It may take them a while to ship. In the most recent email they sent, it said:

"Shipping News: Please take into account due to the high volume of orders
packages may take up to an additional 6 days to ship."

It makes sense, since they probably had the bum's rush after they announced the new lower prices.

I think they sent it to their newsletter subscribers. You can sign up here:

And I COMPLETELY understand the frustration about not getting a response. I am having a problem right now with another company not responding to my emails. :(

Here's a picture of mine - it's the "light" shade even though I am more of a medium, I still figured it was worth it.

The top left item is a concealer, then powder, rouge and the shadows on the bottoms. I already have the beige and brown and have been using them daily - i like them very much. I use the Urban Decay Eye Shadow Primer Potion and they stay on ALL day long, even after my sweaty swing dance class.

They did send me some rouge and powder puffs along with my order.

I got my tracking number, but nothing has been sent yet, so I actually called Besame (I believe they are only there certain days of the week) and was told that my order should be here on Tuesday. I wanted to ask if I could just drive over there, but I don't think that's an option. I'm on their website again about to make another order! I really shouldn't, but I can't help it, such good prices and chances are that won't be happening again for a while.

had anyone tried the 1930's mascara? I'm curious to know how well it works, I've been using Mabeline smudge proof and it's the only one that I've found that does what it says.

I ordered on Aug 2, as well and am starting to get antsy. I'm so excited about my lipsticks. I wish I could place another order, as I've finally gotten tired of my Mary Kay moisturizer, but I won't have any money until after they say the sale is done.

and like any good addict, I placed another order today.

Sigh.

(plum dandy shadow, the cool Trio and the red/cerise lip pencil, plus a "free" chocolate lip glaze).

Because I: a). hate passing up a "deal" and b). just can't ever have enough make up.

:whistling
