Mineral Makeup Eye Liner Tip

Where The Heck Is The Eye Liner?

Many women have asked us if we will be offering eye liner pencils to our mineral makeup repertoire.  And the answer is, they really are not necessary.  This may seem odd that we would say this, especially for ladies new to the mineral makeup world, and are used to the conventional methods of eye color, but the reason is, our mineral eye color comes in deeper, richer shades that also doubles as an eyeliner.

How You May Ask?

USPS Rate Increase

Hello Everyone,usps_priority_mail_flat_rate_boxex1

We wanted to bring you current on the latest  USPS shipping rates.

USPS has increased shipping rates across the board as of today.  We knew it was coming, however we had no idea on the details of the increases and what features would be added or eliminated.

Despite the increases, minor for domestic, greater for international shipments, there is a bright spot for those that used to select the “uninsured international flat rate box” option to save some money on costs.

USPS has recreated this to now offer tracking capability, yet this method is still uninsured.  Although the rate is higher to choose this selection, it now comes with delivery confirmation so smaller orders can now be located easier.   And with the tracking number, your package can be readily viewed online to see where your package is at any given time, including checking to see if  there had been a delivery attempt that you may have missed.

We also still offer the special rate for international shipments when meeting the required dollar total so we may continue to assist you with some of these shipping costs.

Even though all of us are faced with the rising cost of freight across the board these days, we have found that USPS still provides the quickest and best service over all other shippers for you to receive your products ASAP.  To receive similar rates with other shippers, we are looking at longer ship times for more money.  To even get close to the USPS rate you would have on average a week wait plus processing time, since it would have to go via ground and there is zero savings to you.

We always strive for the best in all customer service, mineral makeup and skincare products, including offering the best method to get you your products safely and without delays.

Thank you so much for your loyal patronage and understanding this is beyond our control.

For more information, please visit our Shipping Policy Page for the updates and rates now being offered.
