E-tailer Review: Premium Minerals Makeup

Premium Minerals is not a well-known e-tailer of mineral makeup, but they deserve the credit known to any of the major brands. I have light olive-toned skin, and I used to struggle to find a liquid or pancake foundation that didn't look too pink or orange, or that god forbid, sweated off in the hotter months. My discovery of Premium Minerals makeup was a godsend that offered the combined convience of prompt shipping and low-priced products as well as everything I needed from the great invention that is mineral makeup. The wide range of foundation colors also solved my problem with finding the right shade amidst all those department store brands that I used to rely on to get - let's face it - less than the best results. They offered several different color ranges based on the prominent combinations of undertones that are individual to everyone's skin tones. Their Olive Light (the first in their Olive range of four) works perfectly for me. In addition to their website, the company has an Ebay store under the seller name premium*minerals which offers very low shipping for multiple items within an order; as well as great deals you might not otherwise find by perusing their website alone.

Below is a checklist on the advantages of Premium Minerals based on my experience with the product:

*Low prices, both in samples and full size items. A full size jar of Foundation is $14.49 and a sample of Foundation in any shade is typically $1.49 with the samples of some products being only about $0.20 more than that of the Foundation.

*A wide range of colors in foundation. The color ranges also correspond to undertones for an even closer match to your unique skintone.

*Their huge selection of Anywhere Eyeshadows are a steal at $6.49 for a 10 gram jar.

"They offer Coverup and Corrector Minerals for hiding a host of your daily skin troubles ranging from visible veins to those dark circles under the eyes.

*Each product (except those in sample size) comes in a plastic jar with a built-in sifting barrier between the lid and the minerals in order to allow more control when dispensing the amount of makeup you need and has the additional benefit of minimizing spilling compared to the major leading brands that don't offer any kind of barrier between the product and the lid.

*They now offer a Sunscreen mineral finish in both tinted and translucent options.

*Prompt and low-cost shipping for multiple items.
