Cherry Culture is good for NYX stuff and Milani. Some of the LA Colours stuff is not bad, but your really getting into some cheaply made stuff.
I find alot of stuff on Cherry Culture is over priced and bad quality. excluding nyx, milani, la colours...etc.

The NYX Cosmetics website currently has a Dollar Galore sale, running from 1/15 to 1/25. They've marked a lot of their stuff down to $1 apparently. I don't order from them because I think shipping was a lot.
I'd love to order from the sites mentioned on this thread, but am concerned about high shipping and customs/duty. Can anyone give me an idea of how much extra I can expect to pay on an order?

My last cherry culture order was $24, I will let you know if I get dinged with customs. In the past I haven't so fingers crossed.
Also my first ELF order was over $20 too. :shock:
I got some packages today!!!!
I wouldn't worry about cherry culture and customs, I ordered $24 worth of stuff (before shipping charge) and they marked my tiny box as "art supply samples" and $5 worth, so no problems there.
The Cherry culture is first below, and it's left to right.
Smokey Look Kit (box on the left, this is small, like the size of your palm but really cool!)
Concealer in a jar (in the colour porcelene)
Mega Shine Lipgloss in Beige, and Smokey Look (Smokey look is really orange looking in the tube!)
Round Lipsticks in Harmonica, and Strawberry Milk (Harmonica is a big paler with frostiness to it)
Then the ELF order:
Contour brush (very nice, smaller than the eye blending brush from the white line)
HD Powder (which was free!)
Oh wow sounds great ! The NYX Smokey Look Kit reminds me of the MAC smoke and mirrors eyeshadow set from the holiday past Mischief and Mayhem collection, let us know how pigmented they are.
Maybe since it's after the holiday rush, the ELF orders are coming in about 2 weeks they used to again. I finally picked up my order that was sent to my parents house over the weekend, I will post some pics and maybe review some stuff when I get home.
Let me know how you like the contour brush in comparison to the regular line Blending brush!
Nice haul, ! Got to love free stuff, and that NYX palette is verrrrrrrrrrry nice.
Two questions:
How much was shipping for your pkg from cherryculture?
Where did your ELF pkg ship from? I still haven't rec'd mine, yet, and I think we ordered around the same time.
Just a tip for anyone who likes NYX makeup and lives where there is a Save-On-Foods. Their cosmetic dept periodically gets large shipment of NYX items that they price at $1 each. You have to check often, and every shipment is different. One time, they had all mega glosses, and another time, they had all lipliners. Last week, they had the chrome eyeshadows. I picked up ten, then decided to go back a couple of hours later to get more, and they were all gone. The cosmetics lady told me a woman came in, bought the entire stock (over 100s of item) and wanted a discount. LOL.
Sorry. Didn't mean to hijack the ELF thread :cheesygrin:
No problem Junerose, talking about NYX is allowed. ;)
Okay, shipping on cherry culture was, $8.11 on $24 order, it's by weight though.
The ELF order shipped from.. JA Cosmetics, 54 East 11th Street, Patterson, New Jersey 07524. This was my second order, I still didn't get the first one.
My ELF orders:
1/02 - $38.00 - $9.50 (I hope I don't get customs charge for this... this was before I knew the shipping trick).
1/11 - $3.00 ARRIVED TODAY, 1 WEEK! (no shipping charge here)
1/14 - $6.00 - $5.00 + $6.95 shipping = $7.95 today
makeupmixshop:
1/02 ordered, 1/14 shipped..$19 (with free shipping)
still waiting for it too.
Is anyone planning to get something from ELF in the next few days or so?
I was wondering if I could order with them and just pay the item with postage to be mailed to me.
I just want this 1 item soo bad but I dont want to pay 6.95 for shipping.. =(
