You are right - Everyday Minerals lip colors are in tubes now. They are much more pigmented than the ones in pots were. EM is having so many problems right now though -
I took another look, looks like overall you're right. Alima is a little bit more expensive in foundation but not by a whole lot.

Lauress Foundation is 10g for $22.00
Alima is 7.5g for $20

Shimmer Blush
Lauress: 3.5g for $16
Alima: 5g for $15

Eyeshadow
Lauress is 2g for $11
Alima is 2.5g for $9

Well great, there goes that reasoning! LOL

Ah, I see EM is having some shipping problems. Hopefully they'll get everything squared away!

LOL
Sampling never seems to end in MMU!
I don't think their website now is very impressive. I liked the old look, it was very white and light and crisp and they showed powder in rose petals to decorate the pages which I thought was a great image for a velvety soft makeup. This new one looks too bold/heavy for my taste.

I got the notification it shipped today so hopefully next week I'll have some updated reviews to see if I changed my mind about them.
