I would like to know how to purchase the calendar you speak of each year. Either I am too late or it is not available at the time I inquire. I love your products and look forward to watching you on HSN, but I don’t always know when you are on the program. Love to hear from you. Thank you.
Why does nobody ever discuss Perlier and Elariia on the HSN Forums? I’ve noticed this topic is pretty much ignored there. What’s going on?
Big thank you to whoever finally answered the expiration date question! Also, would love to see a body spray in Mandarin Ginger.
I would like to echo Donna’s request for additional Rain and Cotton Candy products, especially body spray and talc. Also please make Sage Tea Tree bar soap and talc as soon as possible. Please make Avocado and Lemongrass body spray. PLEASE!!! :)
I have to put my plug in for Rain, my repeated favorite. Would like to see more products in Rain and/or more similar spa-like scents. It’s soft and quiet; relaxing and tranquil. I sometimes wear it with my other perfumes and it never competes. Great for the office, no one complains that it’s overwelming. Cucumber and Mint is ok but would like more of the cucumber to come out as opposed to the mint. I guess I missed your Cotton Candy but would like to see scents like Pink Sugar type.
I was really excited to order the Rice Valentine’s Day set. It is one of my favorite scent. I just read about the expiration dates. The body balm was made in 2005 and the shower cream was made in 2007. That means the body balm is almost 4 years old. But it seems to smell and feel the same so I guess I will be keeping all 3 kits.
Dear Amanda & Skip: I received my IBB sample of Cedar and was totally put off. I could not get it repacked and sealed to get that scent out of my home. Why would you even consider that fragrance for an item on your wonderful line? I totally sent it back the same day!! I love your berry scents as I am alergic to perfumes but love your fruit line. Keep up the good work minus the Cedar!!
What happened to the $19.85 Customer Voice Kits? They are ALL $21.50! Thanks.
Avocado & Lemongrass KITS, please!
Within the last year you have mentioned PURE LIME and also CARNATION we have yet to see. During the next shows could you please drop a hint of a launch date for these? Also I miss AVOCADO LEMON and would appreciate expansion of Yellow GRAPEFRUIT (foam bath) to include body cream. Please bring back LEMON VANILLA body spray. Its perfect with Lemon Sorbetto. Thank you
The Cotton Candy organza bag set you offered in Dec of 2007 has such a delicious scent. I would love true body cream, cream bath, body spray and so on in this scent. Would you consider making COTTON CANDY into a full line?
Dear Amanda and Skip, I was thrilled to see the return of White Tea with Bergamot in the new mini set and am eagerly awaiting its launch this spring. My concern is that the scent is not true to the original. I still have some original product bath body talc and spray and my hope is that the spray is still the same. Please make this beautiful spray in the original scent and bring it to us here on HSN!? Thank You
I also love blue iris! Would you please bring it back! I thought that you said it was coming back last year! Please, Please bring it back!
Please bring back the shea butter body powder,,and are you making the wild fig body cream in a larger size,,we get use to new stuff and then it never develops!!!It is wonderful and smells out of this world,,,,,
Please, please, please bring back the Blue Iris and also the Wild Orchids. These are my favorite florals. Maybe you could bring them back in an autoship form for us die hards – like the original lavender autoship (which I signed up for as soon as it was offered.) I am also hoping for the Vanilla Lime in the Carribean line.
Skip The new Shea Butter hair mask is the worst product I have ever used. How did this get onto the market with your research, etc. Others have the same opinion on the comment page. You should refund all of us the full price and shipping. VERY DISAPPOINTED in you and your company.
DH,NJ: I purchased your Caribbean Vanilla eau de toilette and absolutely love it! I have been desperately wanting to try the Caribbean Vanilla Lime, however it has been out of stock for months! The only fragrance available is the Vanilla Mango. Will you PLEASE bring back this collection??? I would purchase the vanilla lime IMMEDIATELY!
Absolutely loved the Candy Cane. It’s my new favorite. Cedar Wood a bit too strong and masculine for me, so I will give it to my brother to try. On one of your vlogs you mentioned more Carribean Vanillas were coming in April (besides Vanilla Mango)–still true?
I no longer see the Wild Orchid, Please bring it back, that is my all time favorite. I also wanted to comment on the Olive and Fig, I love it, very nice!
I also received my Cedar wood and Sage products and immediately opened the body cream and tried it on my hand. Not for me! It definitely smells like Cedar bushes. My husband my enjoy the smell in the house at Christmas, but not on me. Sorry, I think that this is a miss for most women who want a light fresh scent. Cannot detect the Almond oil. Sorry, But I also am sending back.
Cedarwood I agree is very manly – perhaps you may want to open something specifically for men down the line. I don’t know anyone to give mine to so I have to send it back unfortunately. I enjoyed candy cane a lot (saving what’s left for next year for Christmas). The milk baths seem to feel better on my skin than the gels for some reason. Love the rice product lines and some smell good enough to eat!
I would like to see the olivarium hair mask and shampoo back.
Could you please add a comments line to the IBB Vote? Less than 10 words would help to describe why we like or dislike something. I think the Cedarwood is to heavy/manly. I found the Candycane too sweet. If you are bringing out a set in Lotus Blossom I’ll be buying it! Could you please make more talcs to match the perfumes. My skin has improved since using your products. thanks.
dear amanda and skip. im putting my requests seperately in case it gets filed into the first item. if you have ANY of the origional jasmine left, espially the spray, pleassssse bring some in. i got the talc and hand lotion last year, but am almost out.thank you for all your products, i look forward to all your visits. thank you
dear amanda and skip. i know you like to bring in new fragrances and they are wonderful, but please……dont forget the favorite ones like pink peony and tubarose. i havent seen many kits or single items with these wonderful products. thanks..
