    Ikkleosu...I hope you are going to be VERY excited.

    Looking for some more of these, it seems you just can't get the original make anymore, so I came across these for £6 a box which is ridiculous:
    http://www.lookfantastic.com/beauty/bare-escentuals/gifts-and-packs/bare-id-on-the-spot-eye-make-up-remover-swabs.html

    Then, on ebay, found you can get 6 packs of 24 from USA for about £7 inc P&P: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/6-pks-Eye-Makeup-Remover-Swabs-144-ct-Mascara-Eyeliner_W0QQitemZ230237308281QQihZ013QQcategoryZ31777QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

    Same seller even does 24 packs for approx £12 inc P&P, which works out at 50p per pack!!!

    I am ordering right away! I can't go anywhere without some in my handbag (because I'm sad).

    I utterly love you. THANK SO MUCH! Will order them when I get some cash in my Paypal.

    I would also agree with Vampgirl and LizD. I end up with a rip in the hem of my dress - caused by my own shoes :rolleyes: , but I didn't want to miss any of the party and I was the only one that noticed it!

    All I carried with me was lipstick, powder, a small perfume and rescue remedy - couldn't recommend rescue remedy enough - especially in the hours building up to the wedding.

    Hope you all enjoy your wedding days.
    i have to agree i wouldnt bother i also but my heel through my dress in the evening ,but by that time i was enjoying myself that much to care ,try to enjoy the day it goes that quick i would of hated to keep niping off to touch up or repair something
