Hello Moll!!
Today I'm here to introduce you to another wonderful indie cosmetics company :)
They recently (March 9 2015) switched from etsy to their own website! (Which looks fabulous by the way!!) I've had the pleasure of talking with the owner, Noel, and she's pretty awesome if I do say so myself haha!!!
I decided to wait until her midnight release of her new collection to purchase anything, and I was fortunate enough to be able to get a sample of every colour available. I also managed to snag one of the wonderful pocket mirrors!! :)
There are two collections at the moment:
Mouseia, based on the nine muses of Greek Mythos, and Kinder Und Haüsmarchen, based on Grimm's Fairy Tales. The second collection has some 'repackaged' colours in the fact that the very first collection she had was based on Futurama, but she then had to take it down for licensing issues I believe. I only found these about a week ago (prior to ordering) so I'm going in with just this knowledge and nothing more. Before I ramble on any longer, let's get going on to the review :)
Ordered On:
March 9 2015
Received On:
March 21 2015
Cost:
I (of course) got sample sizes, which were $1 each as a set, $1.50 each if bought separately for 1/4th tsp.
For full size, you can get the entire collection for a discount or buy each colour separately for $6.
Shipping for me was just round $3 :)
The mirrors are $6 each as well
