*********SHIPPING INSURANCE + POLICIES & PROCEEDURES *********RECENTLY THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH A PACKAGE NOT BEING RECEIVED / GONE MISSING WITHIN THE USPS. ETSY DOES NOT CURRENTLY HAVE A FEATURE WHERE INSURANCE IS ATTACHED TO YOUR CART IF YOU WOULD LIKE IT. IF YOU LIVE IN THE USA & WOULD LIKE INSURANCE PLEASE SEE THE NEW SECTION OF THE STORE WHERE YOU CAN PURCHASE YOUR USPS INSURANCE FOR PACKAGES DELIVERED IN THE USA. IF YOU LIVE OUTSIDE THE USA AND WOULD LIKE INSURANCE PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE PAYING. IF YOUR PACKAGE GOES MISSING DUE TO THE USPS I CAN NOT REPLACE YOUR ITEMS FREE OF CHARGE WHEN A TRACE SHOWS ON IT. DELIVERY CONFIRMATION IS ALREADY INCLUDED ON US PACKAGES THAT ARE NOT ONLY SAMPLE BAGS BEING ORDERED. IT IS SIMPLE ECONOMICS WHICH PREVENTS FREE REPLACEMENTS. PRICES FOR THE QUALITY PRODUCTS I FORMULATE & PRODUCE ARE ALREADY AT ROCK BOTTOM WHICH IS WHY I HAVE TO WORK A 2ND JOB WHILE DOING THIS AS WELL. THEREFORE I CAN NOT AFFORD TO REPLACE YOUR LOST ITEMS FREE OF CHARGE. THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING.

*********POLICIES & PROCEEDURES******** FIRST OFF, I aplogize that I have to put this on the front page where you should just read the store announcement, but NO ONE reads the policy section. As mentioned above I have to work a second job, because my prices are so low which ensures women of all economic situations can live a healthy lifestyle if they so choose. ITEMS SHIP WITHIN 7 BUSINESS DAYS OF PURCHASE. They do not ship as soon as you place your order, so yes, you may receive something from an Etsy seller other than me that you purchased at the same time quicker than you did your order from me, but it will go out within 7 business days. Thank you again for your understanding. I currently work approximately 100 hours a week between the two jobs.


MAY ALL WOMEN HAVE THE CHOICE TO ENHANCE THEIR BEAUTY WITHOUT SACRIFICING THEIR HEALTH!

******The ingredients that we exclude are:
Dyes
Lakes (artifical/chemical dyes)
Talc(associated to cancer)
Bismuth Oxychloride(texturizer assoicated to cancer) a by-product of the lead and copper processing industry and not from the earth but a mineral non-the-less.
Petroleum derivatives (fuel by-products)
Sodium lauryl/laureth sulfate
Methylparaben, propylparaben (chemical preservatives)
UREA
Aluminum (associated to alzimers - AND IN MANY MICAS SELLERS BUY BEFORE THEY MIX THEIR PRODUCTS - YOU HAVE TO KNOW WHAT IS IN YOUR MICA BEFORE YOU BUY IT)
Ferric Ferrocyanide (aka Prussian Blue)a synthetic dye
Mineral oil - a fuel by product
As well as many others ****

Chances are that if a mineral makeup seller/company doesnt specify their items are free of these chemicals, and many others,or tell you EXACTLY what is in the ingredients. Confirm each mineral product is 100% pure, and free of HARMFUL NATURAL MINERALS and other ingredients associated with health risks, as well as artificial/chemical dyes. THEIR LINE IS NOT TOXIN FREE ! ******

A lot of mica has been pre-dyed with D&C Colors and Lakes and are not 100% natural in it's original form. A seller may even think their line is pure and it isnt! You gotta research. Not just say oh, look pretty color of mica, I will use that in my shadow, foundation, blush when I formulate it. All mica comes pre-mixed with other ingredients when bought in bulk. In alot of cases that may be Aluminum or Bismuth Oxychloride.

I've seen mica's premixed with epoxy copolymer (an adhesive that gives is a fantastic sheen). Many are dyed with chemical dyes such as lakes and D&C colors which are all chemicals. You have to know what is in that mica before you buy it! It isnt just mica!*****

I research each ingredient with my suppliers before I purchase and if it doesnt meet my standard concerning controversial minerals, and chemicals I do not buy it! PERIOD! I do not care how pretty it is! You will not see any of the products formulated by me with that mica.

I spend a lot of time and energy formulating and testing products, as well as money to bring you a healthy product which is a step above all the so called natural cosmetics on the market!



Here is some recent Etsy Feedback!

These are all incredible. The colors are so smooth and they don't crease and they stay on true all day. Thanks so much for a superior product. A+++++++. BTW I have tried almost every brand out there. Also I worked in the salon and spa industry for 8 years. Thanks Freewiredesigns

Great seller, amazing product. I am a cosmetic manager of a large boutique and these eyeshadows out do many products on the market right now! I will definately purchase more in the future! ShopTrik


Hi Mechelle, I am a bit of a make-up addict, and I feel so naturally beautiful in your products. Knowing they are not packed with nasty chemicals is such a bonus, but in reality they perform BETTER than high end cosmetics too. I used to buy Clinique ($39 for a lip color, $55 for a foundation), and I never, ever had the customer satisfaction I have now buying from your store. I can't wait to try your new products, and thank you for making beauty buying so much fun too. Kindest wishes from, Anna,

Mechelle, Okay, so funny story...you know how I was a little unsure of the foundation color a few weeks ago? Well, after we talked I decided that rather than rushing through my morning routine and throwing on my makeup, I'd take a little more time (and care) and start from scratch with only your products (after having cleaned as much of the Arbonne goop from my face as possible) ...the other positive to this scenario was that Chris was home and I could get honest feedback... I bugged him every minute or so for the better part of an hour... I'd go step by step then go show him and get his opinion...once I had the foundation (FAIR turned out to be the right shade!), silk halo and sugar aplum blush, he loved it!!! Told me it all came together right and my skin looked the prettiest he'd ever seen it...with NO makeup line!!! (first time for that EVER)... He then patiently allowed me to try every single eye shadow/liner and gave feedback...I wore the makeup all day without my face ever getting oily AND still felt as if I had NO makeup on!!! Last night my face cleaned SO easily and my skin felt amazing this morning!!! I love your products!!! Thank you! Dr. Cara Davis Powell

Hello,
I purchased many shadows from you last year. they are still going strong. I just wanted you to know how much I love them. My home is the one all of the girls gather to before heading out on the weekends. I have a 16 year old and before every dance they all arrive and my daughter and 5 friends use your shadows to create such beautiful eyes. I used to have to run to the store every month to replace the colors my daughter had and to find the latest in color on the store shelf. Your products solve all that. I love that you can use them wet or dry, I LOVE the junebug color and dragonfly. Your products are wonderful! Take it from me... a mom who constantly has a revolving door for the girls to put on makeup...your things are top of the line and I know for a fact I would be broke buying them from a department store. Thank you, Martha S.
