    Thanks to OP for this. Just ordered my free sample set from EM for £2.93. I am very very pale and have trouble getting foundation pale enough so looking forwards to trying this.


    My skin looks almost blue white and I find these powders perfect, and you can mix them in a larger pot to get just the right shade. :j

    I've tried other mineral powders and they just cake and look patchy and feel heavy, these EDM powders are lovely and fine and you don't look overly made up. :)

    Yes the colours I got weren't quite right so I mixed them all together and crossed my fingers, got a perfect shade. So I ended up with quite a decent size pot for the money. Need to get some more now - I have gone back to clinique liquid foundation but certainly prefer mineral, can we order more samples?

    Yes we can, I've had 6 lots upto now, going to order some more later in the week :)

  • Hi, I have just (finally) ordered the free samples at a cost of £2.91 (due to the exchange rate) and I cannot wait to see what they are like. I will pass this on to my sister who will be over the moon if they are as good as everyone says (as will I). Ooooh! hurry up Mr Postman!

    :D

    Different formulae suit different skins. Fingers crossed for you :)

  • What a great site, only cost £2.91 postage to UK as someone else said due to fluctuating exchange rate. Love the site design and choice of colours though they are a bit small the previews but you can enlarge them. Looks like one I'll visit again as prices seem really reasonable, I've used mineral makeup before, this looks really good quality so I expect it to be as good or better. Thanks for the link!

    how long does delivery take for signature minerals samples? I ordered some and can't wait to get them! :)

    P.S. does anyone get spots when using mineral foundation? I seem to be getting a lot lately... :rolleyes: :confused:

    My last lot took a week, ordered late on a Friday evening and got them the following Friday. Pretty quick I think considering they are coming from the US. Quicker than some post in this country:eek:

    It seems to vary - I've had some come within a few days, others it's taken a good couple/3 weeks...

    With regards to the spots, its exactly the opposite for me - I have really bad acne, but when using mineral, my spots seem much much better - have you looked at what you are applying the make up with? I know if I don't wash my puffs/brushes at least once a week I get really bad spots again, so try that (or have a few and rotate them, so you don't have to be constantly washing them).
    Do not feed the trolls please.
  • i ordered some last week and they came within thw week i was amazed
    the colours arent very good for me though they are far too light
    do you think it will matter if i order some more?
    the blusher is lovely really sparkly
    they are also a good size for free :~)
