Dear Readers,
I got my swap package in the mail from my German swap pal Svenja in mid-May but due to a busy schedule I haven't been able to post on my blog. She is a sweet girl and really full of energy. I was looking for the Catrice eyeshadow in 180 'Petrol Keeps Me Running'. I saw Simone Simons swatch it on her blog as she was looking for a dupe for the color A Bluer Blue from her MAC holiday palette (Mac Eye Delights Warm Palette). I thought the color was GORGEOUS and since it is only available in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, I posted a video on youtube hoping there was someone out in one of those countries that wanted to swap with someone from the USA. Surprisingly enough (I kid you not!) I was on the phone with a relative in Europe about 2 weeks after I posted the video got a comment 5 minutes after I got off the phone with them! She added me via facebook and we went from there. We each compiled a list of things we wanted and exchanged them. It took about a week to get our lists together, then we exchanged addresses and the packages went on their way! Hers took about a little over a week and a half to get here (mine took about a month and a half but the postal service here that really stinks!). When I opened the package, I couldn't believe all the wonderful things (including chocolate hehehe) that Svenja included.
(pics to come soon)
She is such a doll and a pleasure to swap with and should she need anything else I would be happy to swap with her again.
