Just recd. my very prompt order from Everday Minerals powder foundation today to try. I had to exchange the semi-matte to try the matte (less micca) because of my extremely over-sensitive skin right now (should have ordered the samples). The wonderful rep on the phone was incredibly nice in helping me try to find the right color and version of coverage. I mentioned the forum and how I found them, and he said to let everyone here know that if they type in or mention EDS they would give 15% off the order! They offer a great guarantee policy and really just want the customers to be happy and pass it on. What a nice experience!
Now the review-from the brief time I tried it the coverage was fantastic and I loved the sheen. I had ordered the golden light as I have tried the Med.#3 in True and the Golden Light in the Amazing line. The color was a bit light but I am going to try mixing it with the light to make it a little bit darker (although hubby said it was fine). The coverage wasn't as heavy in the pores as the True and yet better coverage than the Amazing for me as I have some rosacea flare-up right now. Looking forward to trying the matte!! |

That's great, Annie.
They are a terrific company to deal with.
I think their minerals are great as well.
I use Fairly Light, and dust a little Finishing Dust over my nose and forhead. Just lovely.
Also, their apple blush is very, very pretty. Rosy, just in from the cold cheeks.
I said this in another post, if you couldn't tolerate the TinMan look of BE, or the itching/irritation made you nuts, you ought to try EveryDay Minerals. The samples are free so you've got nothing to lose.

| By phone or in the coupon box was what I was told. I really love the texture and coverage. |

| Very fast shipping-just recd. my reorder and color was perfect. But alas my foray into the mineral foundation world is over-seems it was MMU that has been causing all my woes that I thought were due to shellfish alleriges and proheal. It seems one just compounded the other at the same time. I just happened to put Proheal on very raw sensitive skin from the MMU. Amazing loose powder was the culprit, True didn't bother me too much but didn't help (will try again in a month or so) but the EM itch drove me insane and instant tiny bumps! Using a sample of the Super Serum that EDS sent with my Obagi gentle was (which also helped) the thing that put my skin back on track. I hope everyone that can use MMU loves the EM. Coverage and wearability is great. |

| That I don't know, but you could try calling them and see. I don't see why not if the ship to other countries. Good luck and let us know. |

I've just placed an order on the sample pack. Not sure whether I made the right choices of foundation though. 
The best part of it is that I only have to pay for shipping. I hope this little sample pack will help keep me distracted from placing another order from EDS at the time being (I have to control myself to wait at least two weeks between orders) |

Hi, I am in Hong Kong and I just received my order of 1 sample pack plus 1 lip color. Very fast service - shipment in less than a week!!
I am new to mineral makeup - can someone advise me - how do I use the lip color (IN POWDER FORM)? Thanks. |

| I've just looked on their website and have emailed them. They sound like a good company to deal with and they ship to the UK too. I'm currently using BE but am not very impressed with it. It doesn't match my skintone well, I have the medium and fairly light, and leaves me looking shiny. I don't feel it covers spots particularly well either. Does anyone else find this with BE? Does anyone with oily/spotty skin have a review of EM? |

I recently placed an order and mentioned in the comment section EDS.
I did not get my discount. I did e-mail them on this and another issue. They said that they could either take the discount off this order or apply to another future order.
I have found them quickly responding to emails. I emailed once on the weekend when I was placing the order and I had a response within an hour. An hour on the weekend is EXCEPTIONAL for a mineral makeup company.
I ordered the sample kit and have not tried the foundations yet. I do like the finishing powder. |

| Cross posting from another thread, (still trying to find my way around here) and I've received my samples, and love them! Now to find a finish and a colour match. At the moment I think more than one colour matches me, so clearly I'm not looking at them properly! |
