Thanks!!

I didn't open it; it's way bigger than I need for the stuff I own, so I'm selling it. But as I understand, it holds 12 brushes/mascaras/lip glosses on the dual-sided middle flap. Plus there are zippered sections on left and right and I think even one in the middle! HTH, Kat.

Are you posting the "for sale" on here or elsewhere? It sounds interesting. Can you put up a couple pictures of the inside of the bag? How much are you going to ask for it?
Thanks in advance for the information!

I'm so excited I received my orders yesterday.

I just received my Alima eyeshadow order this morning, and I'm still thinking of getting the full size of some of the samples I got. They are so subtle but yet gorgeous!!

 

[agatapas]

I have just ordered samples of mineral foundations from the Everyday Minerals and Elegant Minerals.

I also bought some affordable mineral foundation on ebay from joelle bare cosmetic.

I'll which one is going to be good to me. Right now I only used Isadora, which is great to use at the beginning but later it works against my sikn. I also used Rhea foundations from the local supplier but they have a chalky feeling.

So right now I'm browsing and ordering the samples

I just ordered the Bare Escentuals Get Started kit in Medium Beige/Medium. I've only ever tried the mineral foundation from Milani (at CVS) and I didn't really like it. I can't wait to get this order! Plus since I joined the Beauty Insiders Club, I get a free 1.7 oz of Bliss of Bliss Naked Body Butter for my birthday.

 

[agatapas]

I also ordered Meow and Lumiere samples. I think I should stop now, while I won't be able to use the samples for couple of months. So I have for sampling orders on their way, and one full size from ebay.

Gosh I can't wait.

Hi there, agatapas!
I ordered from Joelle Bare Mineral Cosmetics once - a jar of foundation in their medium shade, some yellow concealer and a couple of eyeshadows. If I recall correctly, the foundation shade was off and it made my face look quite shiny while accentuating my pores. To be fair, it could be because I may have applied too much as I was not getting the coverage I needed. Also, I was still using the dry kabuki method then. I have since discovered that the wet application technique using a large flat taklon foundation brush gives me a more even and flawless coverage. And speaking of kabuki brushes, the free mini kabuki that came with the foundation broke me out on the cheeks.

Anyway, when I started making my own MMU, I salvaged the Joelle Bare foundation by tweaking and perfecting the color, coverage, feel, etc. Now I can't tell it apart from my own formula!

However, the thing that irked

me the most was the S&H charge. It cost me about $10 - $11 (before the USPS price hike) to ship to Australia but now it has gone up to $15.95!

I do hope you have much better luck with your Joelle Bare products. These are just my views based on my personal experience and her products may suit your skin better than they did mine.

Please be sure to post reviews of all your samples and purchases when you get them.

Hi ,
thanks for the review. The cost of sipping is normal to me, while I always need to pay a lot to get sth shipped to Poland. I'm just used to it.

Your opinion on this ebay makeup doesn't sound, good. I'm mad I haven't found this forum before I placed an order, but still it seemed so cheap comparing to the prices of MMU here in Poland.

I think I still have to read a lot about MMU application to be ready for my samples.

I'm really bad I ordered another two sets of samples today. I need to block my paypal account or else

I have 8 samples orders on the way + this one from ebay. Gosh it will take me months to use it. I plan to make photo of my face in each sample to compare.

I also ordered flat top syntetic brush, while most of you find it as better for the flawless MMU application.

Just ordered some foundation, blush and e/s samples from Lure Beauty late last night. They sent me an email this morning that it was shipped.

This is the fastest shipping I have ever experienced. Plus the shipping rates are unbelievably cheap to Canada. All the samples come in jars (some are 20-gr size) and it was only $1.93 to ship.

Wow, that's an awesome shipping rate to Canada. It's too bad i'm done buying MMU since my next venture is to make my own.

Hope you enjoy your order.

Only $1.93? That is next to nothing!!! I hope you find some HGs amongst those samples.

I didn't mean to discourage or alarm you, agatapas. I think it's just me...my lousy skin has such "special" needs. It might very well be perfect for your skin and your needs.
