Welcome Aim301!!! I see you got an answer to your question. I usually order the foundation I want to try in three different formulations...there can be slight color variations between the formulations, but of course the final determination is whether it makes my skin look oily, lol. I've ordered about 6 sample kits I think.

. . . and just whose job is it at that company to come up with names like "spin cycle", "waffle cone", "gold medal", "dust bunnies", "lint trap", etc??

:lol: !

More for the list:

Dirty Windows (an opague pearlescent brown)

Tub Ring (a nice charcoal gray)

And why not:

Wet sponge (an oil absorbing powder)

I wouldn't have though of laundry soap. It doesn't leave any residue on the brushes? Is it a liquid?

Here's the verdict: this morning, my brushes felt super soft and clean. It was, probably, the best they've felt since I bought them.

Just wanted to report my experiment with the Silk Dust (I have the Tinted Silk Dust).

I applied a layer of silk dust first under my foundation, then foundation on top of that, and another layer of silk dust to set everything after that. It yielded a very nice result.

I even got a compliment on how nice my skin looked, so I figured I must have stumbled onto something with this technique :lol:

Good job Julie!!!

By-the-way everyone, Bronze Medal does look pretty good as a blush...not very bold, but a subtle bronzing.

Ahhh, so many new colors!!! I was pleased to see that I already had 3 of the new blushes, thanks to the specials, all of which I love. I was sad to see that most of the new eye colors were matte, because I don't care for matte shadows, but I did order Eco-friendly, Jasmine Tea and Laptop. I also got Floating Feathers, and Girl's Day and Wake Up Call in anticipation of using them as shadows......I like very intense colors on my eyes, and I'm looking for a more reddish-pink shadow, which they don't seem to have, so we'll see! I also ordered the Start To Finish Rice Powder in Sunlight, since I can't get Silk Dust anymore, I hope it doesn't make me break out like the Finishing Dust does.

Back to school today, thank goodness! It's s quiet with just me and my little guy.....my oldest started middle school today, and my other two are back to their old school...such an exciting day, and I might have time to play with my makeup! LOLOL

New colors?! :lol: Sheesh, I'm falling down on the job...I didn't even know there were new colors.

From the last batch I ordered...

The free eye shadow Gold Medal was a hit with me, and Homework blush was great. This morning I'm wearing the raspberry blush and it's pretty nice as well.

Maybe I'll go over there now and see what's new.

Okay, I just HAD to put in an order, lol. I LOVE that they have the little "new" tags on some of the new products.

So I ordered all the new blushes and two of the new concealors in a personal mini kit.

Then ordered samples of three of the newer eyeshadows.

And, annother eye kabuki brush so I could get the free eyeshadow, lol.

LOL Donna! I love the Homework blush!

From the website:

"* UPDATE (8/25/08): The transition from sample jars to new recyclable packaging is underway. There will be temporary clear jars for samples the next month. When we are finished with the transition we will be increasing the number of samples in Free Sample kit and lowering prices on sample products! We are really excited about this. We will keep you posted as we continue to make this transition. Please keep in mind, these are not "baggies" like transparent bags -- these are beautiful. I will post an image soon! All sample sizes will come in the new packaging. We will be offering the Eye Shadow Sample Kit with mini sized recyclable jars as well as in the new packaging. We know you will be thrilled when you see the results. We will keep you posted!

* 5 new eye shadow colors are online! YAY! Eco-Friendly (shimmer) - Casual Friday (matte) - Laptop (shimmer) - Jasmine Tea (pearl) - Wallaby (matte) -- have 4 more but are waiting due to stocking and manufacturing schedules - hopefully soon!!!

* New Lucent Blush shade "Viki's Radiant Creation" is up! Love it, and just wanted to let some of you know that since I've been out of town recently, we left some of the concealer descriptions blank. Lisa will collect the descriptions for the creators and get those up asap! Thanks

* Around September 8th Everyday Minerals will be launching 12 new Foundation Shades. We will keep you posted with exact times toward the end of next week!

UPDATE (August 28th) Just talked with photographer, they tell me this weekend for new model shots, so let's anticipate images being up around Wednesday.

UPDATE: New shipping code is up! This is really great, and you will see all the proper Everyday Minerals shipping rates right now

STILL WAITING: for the programmers to finish: Videos, New and Out of Stock Button.

A few months ago, I was diagnosed with Celiac's disease, and have also had a tough time changing my diet, throwing out all of my beloved cosmetics, but am feeling so much better because of it! I came across a line of personal care products and also cosmetics that is completely gluten free. It is also free of sodium lauryl sulfate, aluminum, alcohol, mineral oil, and is hypoallergenic, non-comedogenic, and vegan.

This company is called Cleure. You can find them at www.cleure.com.

Some of my favorites of their products: cinnamon toothpaste, roll-on deodorant, shampoo, nailpolish, lipstick, lip gloss, pressed blush, liquid foundation.. and I could go on and on!

New colors?!?!?!

I am going to go check them out right after I post :lol:

Shannon and Donna, as always I look forward to hearing your reviews on what you just ordered (I hope they get there in a timely manner :rolleyes: )

"I was sad to see the ?Screaming Lady? on the Custom Kit page go, so I kept her there an extra few hours so we could all say our heartfelt goodbyes. For those that didn?t get to see the Screaming Lady, or ?Bamboo Boo!? (model peaking out from the bamboo), forgive us all for having the pleasure of doing so.

Just wanted to say thanks to Tanika for the beautiful work with your powders, and Walid for the amazing photography. I love how they represented the brand with so much love. We were so happy to have this experience and bring their work to you.

I love the new photos and hope you do too. I am also excited about the New Look Book. It will really be about your contributions! We will have lots of color guessing fun and let everyone show off their own beauty styles

We will have so much more to come, I promise. We are just now starting to heat up, so I can?t wait for what is to come! I have some surprises, but also have learned how to bite my tongue! Ouch!

UPDATE (9/04/08): Thrilled to let everyone know we are shifting to Mini Jars in Sample Kits and Sample Sizes for our one month transition to the New Recyclable Sample Packaging.

Mini Jars will replace sample size containers. In 30 days we will only offer Sample sizes in the New Recyclable Sample Packaging or in Mini Size jars half-filled.

The idea is that instead of tossing sample containers in the trash, you keep the mini jar forever! Our goal is to offer you more of the best, and we feel that during this 30-day transition to the new sample packaging, we can all get a head start!

Keep in mind that sample kits may look a little bit ?interesting? over the next 30-days as we go from sample sizes, to mini jars, to the new packaging ? I just think reusing our makeup jars is a fun and meaningful way we can do something for our families and keep the planet looking good and healthy.

Plus we get to give you so much more!

UPDATE: The new Foundation Launch is underway. September 8th has been rescheduled for 10th at 10:00 pm CST. We will be launching 10 new shades. So 10, on the 10th, at 10 pm

Thanks for everything and making this week so much fun!

We all love you, everyone of us here - THANKS!!!!

I got my order already! What a change from the last time..... :angry:

Anyway.....

Eco-Friendly looks to me like mint concealer, but with sparkle. I'm not so sure I like it, but we'll see what happens when I put it on.

Laptop looks likes a darker Diary, so I think that'll be nice, since I wear Diary a lot. A pinkish-brown woth sparkle.

Jasmine Tea is a very light beige, pretty...probably for a highlght color.

I'm not sure about Girl's Day, it looks kind of orange, but I think that Wake Up Call is what I've been looking for as far as a reddish color. It's almost crimson.....very pretty. I think that'll be my first experiement. :P

Thanks for your review Shannon :)

I love that they put "NEW" tabs on all the new items, that really helps a lot.

I like the look of the new foundation brush and I want to get the eye kabuki brush.

ALL the new concealers have me :wacko:...how do you figure out what does what and what is best for you?

Hi everyone,

It's been a long time since I've been in here. Summer flew by so fast, and I didn't wear much makeup, lol.

I guess I'll have to go over to EM and see all the new things there.

Hi Ladies,

I've been using Everyday minerals off and on since April but within the last 2 mths. have used it everyday and just love it! :) Cool Medium and Cool Med. Summer seem to be working well and tinted silk dust and email for my blush. I would like to get some eyeshadow and think wildflowers and bundled up for a highlighter may work well. I'm looking for a natural light brown eyeshadow. In looking at their website again baby bath, movie night or spin cycle may be ok too - has anyone used any of these colors including wildflowers and bundled up? Thanks for any info! btw - i love reading this thread - it's how i learned of Everyday minerals! :)

Hi fig girl, glad you popped in the EM thread :)

I have Wild Flowers and absolutely love it, it's one of my favorite colors! I also have Baby Bath, I really like it. It might be exactly what you are looking for, it's a really light natural neutral color.

I think they're using "tan" to refer to far too broad a range of colors. I ordered Deep Tan for my biracial daughter to wear as a concealer, and it's way too dark for her. So then I ordered Intensive Tan Concealer, and it's so light I can almost wear it, and I'm pretty fair; things like Fair Medium and MultiTasking work for me. It's not very helpful to have two such wildly different tones both called "Tan." Tacking the word "Deep" onto one of them doesn't suggest the vast degree of difference there between the two colors.

Fig girl, I also love the Wildflowers eye shadow. I don't wear a lot of eye makeup, but have been using it wet as a liner and really like it. Haven't tried Bundled Up, though.

Thank you Juliem and MNBeth! I really appreciate it! Wildflowers and babybath sound great....maybe i'll order both! :) Is it hard to apply these as eyeliner? I've only used an eyeliner pencil - do you use a special brush? Thanks again!

Hi Donna!

Thank you for your reply! There's so many nice eyeshadow colors that i want to try but i'm thinking do i really need that many!? lol I'm trying to be conservative since i feel like i spend so much money now on gluten-free food....but it's all worth it! I haven't ordered anything yet but may end up getting the eyeshadow sample kit since i can't decide! :P Thanks again!

Up until they added the new colors recently I had all but 3 of the eyeshadows, and NO I don't use them all, lol. I think I only use about 5 regularly that are my favorites.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
