i think it's rather fun to pronounce. the other day, i was talking to my grandpa about having ordered this scent, and i wound up pronouncing it, "she-tech-uhhhh.. i don't remember how to say it," and he managed to pronounce it PERFECTLY! i just looked at him, blinked, and said, "wow, you're good." <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm sure pirate be will be able to pronounce that, (anglo japanese boy) But I'm going to refer to it as She-Ra. That's a heads up for you Laura!!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm not sure how well a Japanese person could read xiuhtecuhtli considering it has letters and syllables that the Japanese language doesn't. I'm not sure though.

Oooh! I'm so glad I ordered a bottle of the Living Flame! Gorgeous!

Sometimes, yes. Especially in the case of blends such as Formula 54, which was sold for $45 per 10mL bottle ( worth. every. dime. ). Others, such as Snow White, are limited due to the availability of ingredients...Beth has said that there is something in Snow White (I don't remember what, though) that she can only get in the time of year coming up to Christmas, so that is the only time she is able to make Snow White. And still more, like the Lunacy oils, are limited due to the nature of the concept they are created under (i.e. intended to correspond with a particular time of year), so while Beth may choose to use rarer/more expensive ingredients in these blends, they'd still be Limited even if she didn't. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> cool, thanks. That make sense.

Is that why LEs are LEs? Because they are too expensive to maintain in the regular catalogue?

CCNow takes longer to pull from your bank account?! How is that possible? PayPal takes FOREVER! I thought the idea of an instant transfer was that it was instant! Mine takes days to withdraw. I'm not talking about depositing money from my bank into my paypal account either. It's really frustrating because it gives me a false idea of my bank balance.

Yes, I am in Canada. I'd report it, but I don't have the time to. It was kind of gross too, cause it was wrapped in plastic, and you could see that someone had squished it with their fingers trying to see what it was. There were fingerprints in it. The plastic bag it was in said "soap". I also got the new US FDA regulations for packages. You can't even send GUM over the border without a prior notice. I thought we were supposed to be friends!

I had an envelope with some soap in it sent to me that was also opened. There was no note. It was very obvious that it was deliberately opened, and it wasn't an accident. I am not too happy about that.

So from what I read, it takes about a week once our order has been sent to arrive? I just got an email that my order will be shipped tomorrow (Monday, Nov 22nd) , so I might just receive it by next Tuesday!? I hope so! I have about 25 imps right now, but this is my first official lab order!!!!!

I'd try putting it somewhere with less sensitive skin. The inner arm is very sensitive. I can't put my LUSH massage bars or shimmy shimmy on my inner arm, I get the EXACT thing you are describing. Itchy, flesh colored hive things. But I can use them practically everywhere else.

Ok. That's what I thought. Thank you.

Forgive me if this has been discussed. I did a search, and looked in the FAQ, and despite the fact that I read something about this, I couldn't find it. Anyway. I could swear I read somewhere that your credit card wouldn't be billed until your order was ready to be shipped. I just ordered on October 6th, and I've been billed already. My order cannot possibly be ready already, can it? I don't really care about how long it will take, I just don't want to be excited for nothing.

I have 2 questions. I love patchouli, but I'm confused about the different "kinds" of patchouli, red, black, etc. Could someone let me know what the difference is? Also, since I love patchouli, I'd like some recommendations. I think I found some, but I like really strong, spicy scents, ylang ylang. I love LUSH's amazonian. I used to wear a ginger oil, so spicy scents are definitely it for me. Thanks! ETA: I think I'd like to try a musk as well, any suggestions?
