Lightbulb Etsy

I just wanted to throw Etsy out there as a place to explore some mineral makeup (as well as other beauty supplies). Etsy is a site full of individual stores run by people all over the world.

One thing that is different, though, is all items on Etsy are either handmade or vintage. They have everything from art to clothes to makeup to jewelery.

I've order several things from various sellers, but haven't purchased any makeup yet. I'm still exploring all the shops as such.

I'm sure I'll end up ordering some soon and I'll be sure to let you know what I find out.

I believe they do ship internationally! Etsy is like a combined website of different sellers from different businesses. So yes it is like ebay. The only difference is they sell things they make themselves, so its all handcrafted one of a kind items. Different sellers vary on shipping but their really easy to get a hold of! And they are usually very nice at answering questions. You can simply type in for example "earrings" and a bajillion earrings list up all handcrafted. And they let you know how many they have left! Sometimes your the only one who has em!

I've actually never bought makeup before from etsy. But I know certain sellers like beauty by saria can offer you really good sample packs of many different items. You can always email the seller and ask, I'm sure they would be happy to tell you if it was full coverage or not. And more than likely they specify on their profile what they carry when it comes to foundations, at least I think they do. And more than all sellers accept paypal!

Re: Etsy

I've looked at Etsy before but haven't bought anything yet. The sellers that will ship to the UK tend to have very high postage rates so it becomes too expensive for me.

Re: Etsy

Some sellers on Etsy ship internationally. If you find something you like scroll down to the bottom of the item's page to see shipping locations and rates.

Etsy is similar to Ebay, yet different. Items listed on Etsy have to be handmade (by the seller), vintage, or a supply (such as fabric, brushes, paint, etc.).

Re: Etsy

I love Etsy and bought several pieces of jewellery there. I've never purchased MMU but just last night I was looking at body lotions/hand salves. For the Canadians, most sellers charge very reasonable rates for shipping.
