Concrete Minerals - A review

The Company:I heard about Concrete Minerals from the The Snarky Princess and decided to give them a look! I first checked them out on facebook and they have alot of loyal followers and the pictures of product in use seemed amazing.. So I rushed over to etsy and started browsing around and they have a pretty good selection of product. I was actually looking for a sample pack, I am sketchy on ordering full size products from a company I never ordered from so I convroed the owner and asked her if they offer a sample pack other the youtube/blogger sample pack ( in order to meet their criteria to get the yt/blogger sample pack you have to have 50 subbies) the owner Emily replied very quickly and apoligized that they arent offering sample packs at this time byt refered me to the FB special. They are currently running a facebook fan special .. 2 shadows for 7:99 so I decided to place an order. Altogether shipping was 2.99
Shipping and packaging:

I placed my order on March 22 and on March 24th I recieved a conformation email and a tracking number! I personally love when company do this. My package came in on March 29 so 5 days from shipping notice and 7 days from the time I placed my order. My shadows came in a bubble wraper. This company packs their customers products adorably, Inside in a plastic bag were my 2 shadows, in another plastic bag was a sample jar and a card that said 'thank you" as well as a discount code for my next order. There was also instuctions on how to put mineral makeup on, which I think is cute, not everyone knows how to put them on.
The Products:
Shadows are usually without the special are $5.99 for a 10gram jar and sifter that is "filled with product"
Now when I got them they were flled about half way with product it wasnt as "filled" as I thought they were going to be. On the description it doesnt say how much is going to be in the container it just says filled with product. All in all though given its a 10 gram jar even with the sifter I would say its about 3-4 grams which is still excellant for the price you pay. The colors also have fantastic color payoff. You only need a teeny bit to go a long way! They also blend very nicely!

Temptress - Dark teal with gold sparkle. Oh my goodness this color is amazing.. so vibrant and fun, it really pops when applied wet.

Jezebel - A purple with lots of sparkle. This is a really intense purple. Its dark but not too dark. It looks amazing applied wet and at the crease. Jezebel is a fun color can you could wear it for any occassion, dress it up , dress it down.. Fun Fun Fun!!!

Doe Eyed (sample) : A deep cocoa brown with gold flecks. This is a pretty color. I don't wear brown very often so haven't done a look with this color yet , but still glad to have it in the collection.
