Do you like glittery cosmetics? Then you might want to sign my petition on Change.org before glitter disappears from cosmetics forever. I'm petitioning the FDA to approve glitter as a color additive for use in cosmetics (PET glitter is not currently approved for use in ANY cosmetic), please join me in asking the FDA to reconsider their decision. You can find the petition here: https://www.change.org/petitions/the-united-states-food-drug-administration-accept-cosmetic-grade-glitter-as-a-color-additive-and-set-usage-standards Thanks! ^_^
Recall info: http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=189964551030937&topic=445
Colors #22 and #106 sold prior to 06/22/2011 are being recalled, please copy/paste the link for the full information regarding the recall. All customers that I have a working email contact for have already been contacted. Feel free to convo me or email me with any further questions. :)
If you haven't purchased from me before, here's what you should know: We believe in honesty and transparency and we want our customers to be safe and happy (and to look fabulous while doing so). We use only eye-safe products in our shadows and always include safety and ingredient information on our packaging.
All swatches are shown against dry, bare skin. I strive for accuracy in my photos, but some colors have a dramatic shift that the camera cannot adequately capture, for this reason, I show photos of my products in varying lighting conditions (but always outdoor, natural light) and shoot video for each color (http://www.youtube.com/user/TheChequeredLily). I also provide a "streak" photo for each color against lightly textured black paper to give an idea of how a color goes onto the skin and what its finish is, ei: metallic, pearl, matte, glitter, etc. The use of a primer or base will enhance the brightness, opacity, and wear of any shadow and is highly recommended, especially for shadows that are very sparkly or contain a high percentage of glitter. Colors on the website may appear lighter than they actually are, this is partly due to varying monitor settings, and also partly due to camera settings and editing. If you are unhappy with a color you have received, please convo me so we can work on a solution. ^_^
We are currently accepting orders for custom colors, convo for details.
