Tell everyone your TOP 5 Mineral Makeup Companies, that you just can't get enough of!!
I will have to take photos on my days off- everything is so pretty!!! I'll update the list as the rest of my hauls arrive!!!
-Dreamworld: I forgot i had placed 2 orders 3 days apart because i was having issues with the cart. the first arrived today which is mass quantities of samples (amazon, evolution of chaos, furies, rocks). The free gifts of the week were Glisten powder and Glistening lip stick/balm (came in a slimtube) which came in a little purple organza bag. The only thing I can remember from my other order is samples of new fdt colors (hecate turns orange in the summer for me. As soon as it cools down again, it will be perfect but i'd like to have a summer shade too) and I did order a sample mulberry (silk) of hecate. I also ordered some lipbalms I think. It's kind of fun not remembering what i ordered so it's a surprise when i get them!
-Silk Naturals (samples sale!) Lots of pretty colors. There were two samples that REALLY stood out for me beyond all others: Sprite and Wave. GORGEOUS colors. i really like the liquid lippie formula and hope to see it expand greatly (I'm lemming for a dupe of Mary Kay's discontinued Pout gloss). I did swatch all of my current lippies minus Summer Fling which came today. Summer Fling is very MLBB. Again, terrific texture.
-My Minerals Bath and Body (VOXER sale) It's here! It's here! With lots of extra goodies and cute little strawberries and cream cards. I ordered 3 blush samples, a new flat top, a 5g lightener, the eye cream, the ultimate firming serum, and samples of miracle in a bottle, aha cleanser and moisturizer, and wild oats and honey mask. Lisa added in a red triangle sponge (which i've been curious about), a setting mist, a brown liner pencil, and some jojoba beads!
-Chagrin Valley Soaps (Thanks for the reviews Jen!) I haven't passed judgment on the shampoo bars yet because i think they take some getting used to. I currently am using a small amount of body wash to rinse after using the shampoo bar. Right now I'm trying out Cafe Moreno. I used the Shampooch Honey and Oats for my dog's sensitive skin and it left her coat fluffy- no coating or weird texture like the people bars. It also has a texture which helped massage her. I will say I think she prefers this shampoo bar over traditional liquid dog shampoos. I even think the scent had a calming effect on her.
I love the pumpkin seed lip butter balm in tangerine grapefruit and i also LOVE the olive oil and shea soap. I placed a new order today for more soap samples (the last was mostly shampoo bars). Oh! I also got my first lotion bar ever and i really like those too! My boyfriend immediately seized anything mint and so he is also using a shampoo bar (rosemary mint) which he seems to really be loving.
-Mychelle Sampler (~$12 @ vitacost) Arrived quickly. It was really fun having all those little clamshell containers and vials etc to play with. There were 3 men's products which i gave to my bf. I don't know how i feel about this line yet. I don't particularly like the way any of it smells... It seems to be quality stuff but the smell really bothers me. I do think i could really learn to love the masks and maybe a few of the specialty serums though. Update: I am getting a residue from the moisturizers so I won't be purchasing any of them. Products I like: The Serious Firming Hylauronic Serum, Guava Cactus mask, and Apple Brightening Mist.
-GOW- see 2 posts from this one. I finally took the plunge!
I'd like to try camellia-rose but my first email never got a reply so i have to email again and well...i'm lazy...
I have the magnetic markerboard system. I use 1" round self adhesive magnets with a hole in the middle that i order on ebay. It is the absolute BEST system for a person with limited space (like myself in an apt with a small bathroom). Even my lippies go ont he marker board! I've considered a magnet for the bottom of my fiber optic baby buki blush brush but as of yet it is magnet-less. I keep my brushes in a decorative ceramic piece.
