Part 1 of 2: MAC Pigment Samples - Aromaleigh Cosmetics...

Okay my dears, here are some more swatches & preliminary product reviews =) See Part 2 for Make Up For Ever rambling & swatches!!

MAC Pigment Samples from Cheryl's Shiny Eyes (You can also find her on SpektraNet!)

http://cherylsshinyeyes.ecrater.com/

She has perfect feedback. And as far as I can tell her pigments are authentic MAC. I've read nothing bad about her on SpektraNet either. 1/2 teaspoon samples, seems to run about $4.00 a piece, give or take.

Aromaleigh Mineral Cosmetics

Excellent prices & the eye shadows look great! I have swatches for you =) Samples are like $1.50 or less each I believe. Full sized jars run about $8.00.

how do u get samples of mac pigments?

[twixtbetwixt]

I clearly stated in the video WHERE i purchased them. And there is a link in the description box, too!

I ordered 32 samples from Aromaleigh (each is supposed to be 1/16 tsp) for $.98 - $1.30 ea. My order was $37 for what I got, or didn't get is more like it. Two bags were empty (left open and e/s poured out in transit), 14 were near 1/16, 16 were way under 1/16 and some under 1/32 tsp. I was very disappointed. Nice colors, but cust service was rude and refused to correct any problems with my order. In fact, they told me their measurements were "perfect" and for me to shop else where!

Wow! That's awful!! I am so sorry to hear that! I have ordered a couple of times from them & have not had issues with the full sized jars.

:(

Hey did u try any of aromaleigh cosmetics lip products or blush, and if u did how were they?

B/c I will b ordering lip product samples soon!

[twixtbetwixt]

i think i got one lip gloss from Alima, but it wasn't anything special. it was just okay.

The aromaleigh stuff was really nice. I forget is I bought a blush or not. I might have ;p I know their eye shadows were VERY pigmented! I liked them.

Do you think there is enough product in a sample to press a pan to extend make-up life? I am interested in purchasing mac pigment samokes and making my own color pigments do you think that one sample is enough or would I need more than one?

[astarisbored]

I wasn't overjoyed with how much Aromaleigh charged me for how little I got when I bought the bete noir sample collection (and why not charge by weight instead of volume?). They were all mixed properly, and I'm not expecting samples of anything to last forever, but this felt like a rip-off.

[MissSpero89]

I just bought the aromaleigh samples... mine were not mixed either. Estranged had chunks of blue and yellow in it. I have a general idea of what samples I like and what I will get full sized but the samples were not exact in the least bit. Pretty colors though.

This is Cheryls shiny eyes and thanks everyone for all of your referrals:) FYI, 5 gram jars can hold up to 1 tsp depending on the texture,1/2 tsp sellers usually fill it 1/2 full. I fill mine usually closer 5/8 , sometimes 3/4 full.The cool thing is you can try at home with salt, flour, ect using 2 1/4 tsp's since 1/2 tsp is hard to work with, lol. For those who know about my own line, good news the first 20+ colors are done and I'll be listing them soon.I'll always sell MAC too, I love MAC!!
