Latest Everyday Minerals Haul!

Sunday, May 10th, 2009

I totally forgot to mention that I made another order at Everyday Minerals about a month ago!

A Free Sample Kit and a Flat Top Brush

I ordered another free kit with the foundation colors that I liked but in another formula; Cool Fair (semi-matte), Buff Ivory (semi-matte) and Cool Fair (intensive).

As for the blusher I chose Light Pink (image on the right) and as for the concealer I once again chose the Multi-Tasking Concealer (it totally rocks!).

I also ordered a new brush that has become my favorite! It’s the Flat Top Brush! It’s incredibly soft! But the handle was much smaller than I expected.

I still however prefer to use a rounded brush for the blushers, but it’s great to use with foundations!

The Sand Castle Kit

I also couldn’t resist getting the Sand Castle Kit! It’s a sample kit of Driftwood, Funnel Cake, Boardwalk, and Freckles eye shadows and it comes with a bamboo handled eye shadow brush! And wow, I’m totally in love with those colors! They all fits me perfectly! I can really recommend this kit!

Freebies!

I also got a surprise with my order! Three free eye shadow samples! It was Cotton Tale (grey), Greeting Card (purple) and Hoppity Hop Hop (green) (I love that name!). I guess they are from the previous summer (last year) collection. I haven’t had the chance to try them yet though.

A lot of stuff, I know :P

Brushes and such

Everyday Minerals – again

I know I’ve talked about makeup a bit too much lately, I’m not going to turn this in to a beauty blog. But these are all the news I have to tell! I’m working and working so I don’t really have much time for anything else.

Last week I received two brushes and two eye shadows from EverydayMinerals. One foundation brush and one eye shadow brush. The eye shadows are Floating Feathers and Pressed Olive.

Once again I have to give EM the highest score. I’ve never experienced so soft brushes! I’ve already tossed away my cheap H&M brushes! It’s a huge difference!

And, Floating Feathers is my newest favorite among my eye shadows! Not that I have many. I’ve got these two, a two colored one from Isadora, a couple from H&M and a small palette from Viva La Diva. And I also only buy samples when it comes to mineral products since they last very long for me (it’s cheaper too!).

Gucci RTW Fall 2009

I just saw the images from Gucci’s latest collection on a fashion blog and went “wow!”. I just love the style! It’s black and rock! Check out the images from Gucci RTW Fall 2009 at WWD.com and tell me what you think!

Enough about that. I should get down to the basement to see if there’s anyone in the wash house, if there’s not I might just slip in and wash some clothes. I don’t think you are allowed to wash after 8 in the evening but I really have to!

One and a half week ago I ordered a Sample Makeup Kit from Everyday Minerals and it arrived today!
I got the following…

Foundations
- Cool-Fair (Original Glo)
- Cool-Fair Medium (Semi-Matte)
- Buff-Ivory (Semi-Matte)

Cheek/Blusher
- Salon Fun

Concealer
- Multi-Intensive

I’ve tried them all once and I can already say that all the foundation colors works perfectly with different areas of my facial skin! Amazing. I need a bit more time to see which one is the ultimate one for me though.
The concealer took away my blemishes right away. Score! And the blusher might be a little bit too dark/intense for my cheeks so I have to be careful with it, however I also used it as a lip color along with H&M’s transparent lip gloss and the color is perfect! So far Everyday Minerals products get 5 of 5 from me!
