I don't think it depends what's on the Customs label - I think it depends on whether Customs decide to pick on your packet, whatever it says on the label :mad:

I don't know what you were replying to because only your post is on this page, but just in case - £18 is the limit.

I got an SCK (£45 inc. delivery) and had to pay £13ish customs charges. Still not bad for 12 products... now I have make up to last a lifetime!!

Kinda guessed on the colours though :rolleyes:
Does anybody know if you need to use a mineral powder-brush to apply them??

I use a sponge as I have awful skin so need really deep coverage, this can be a bit messy (either sprinkle the stuff onto the sponge straight from the pot or get some in the top of the pot and dip the sponge in), but not more so that using a brush - if you want to use a brush any large brush will do (natural is best).

The little sponge topped applicator they sell on their shop is *fab* btw (and really cheap) if you don't like the idea of brushes (and no, I don't work for them lol).

I've had the offer and have to say I prefer Lilylolo

http://www.lilylolo.co.uk/

It's lighter and brushes on easier.

I found the minerals offered here are a little 'cakey' for me. Ok to use but need at least an hour before they 'settle'

After that it's quite good.

I use a brush and have a little chinese style round ramekin I use to mix powders (keeping up with the tan :rotfl:)

That's what I love about minerals, once you know your face colour type you can get several shades either way and mix n match as you go.

Altogether verdict - good.

I will use these more when I have a need to cover, mostly I'll fit them in as an addition with my other minerals to give greater coverage if required.

Don't be put off, they could be just what you want

You'll get better results with a mineral powder brush. The Everyday Minerals flat top brush is fantastic!

Yay! That's great. Thank you :T

Thanks to all the previous posters who recommended this comany and especially those who recommended the green mint colour corrector. It does a fantastic job taking the redness out of my cheeks! A little goes a long way. I've been using it for over a week now and still enough in the pot to keep me going till the end of the month I'm sure. I had been using BE summer bisque, but it could look to heavy to get the coverage I needed.

I also ordered a lip gloss in Bamboo. I love the texture and weight of it, very moisturising without being sticky.

I was really impressed with the range of foundation shades available. I didn't get quite the right shade on my first order, so will definitely be trying some more - I discovered that on the Everday Minerals site forum, users post swatches of the colours on their own skin so you can see how the shades compare. Great stuff.

irocan - brilliant stuff, isn't it?
I've even used it without any foundation over the top, just to tone down my 'glow'! And no, I don't look like a martian - it just seems to disapear
I'm still using my sample after nearly a month (don't wear it every day), still a bit left. I ordered 2 large pots as well, so I'm sorted for life! :rotfl:
I've mixed all my sample foundation pots (fair/golden fair and a pale one) and seem to have arrived a colour that is just about right for me.
I haven't tried anything else from them, but I like the sound of the messless brush mentioned earlier by pixiepie, so I might try that next
