I think I just have that dream of unrolling one of those giant brush holder thingies and all the brushes look like they belong together, though I don't think I'll ever have that many brushes as you just don't use that many on a single face that wears minimal makeup.
You were planning to buy the VLA anyhow so it's a saving! Ahem... yes that's what I'd be going with 
.
When I dropped some things in there with iherb the cheapest shipping was around €7 but it was all pretty heavy, it is pretty reasonable for the US, but I have yet to really explore what they have that we can't get here. Physician's Formula mascara is supposed to be really good, right? Probably not a tuber though.
Was browsing The Ordinary site, seems the Caffeine eye serum and the other Vit C are now available. They're also going to be releasing a Marula oil which I'm a bit eh about. It's great for very dry skins that need a high Oleic acid oil but not too great for acne, sensitive, rosacea, etc. It's kind of a fashionable oil in the US right now and I'm just beginning to wonder if the Ordinary is only going to be making dupes of things that are already selling well now.
I've been using the Vit C and Retinol for about a week now on my face, and the LA 10% on my arms. It's a little early to be making conclusions but I probably won't be RP the Vit C, nothing terribly wrong with it but it leaves a very odd film on my face that I just don't enjoy and the dispensing system is just annoying, it's already half out as soon as I open the cap. I do find patting it in works best and it's very dependant on whether I used P50 the night before on how stingy it is. The mornings after Retinol it's not all that noticeable, I also suspect the Retinol is clogging up the pores on my nose, I've had to up BHA use to keep it clear. It could also be the Vit C but I'm pretty sure it's the Retinol. My KP still looks the same so can't conclude if LA is ineffective or the Ordinary LA is ineffective for use there, it does seem to have tightened the skin up somewhat but I can't say for sure, I'll finish up the bottle and then re-evaluate. Anyone else feel they're using quite a lot of The Ordinary stuff, as in volume, the droppers really are quite liberal as are the fluid textures.
I have yet to start on the Niacinamide, might swap out the Retinol for it this week and monitor the pore developments. Also, I have yet to figure out why Deciem is so anti BHA (particularly on the Ordinary info pages).
