Has anyone tried the Eye Kabuki Junior yet? How is the size of it? I'm waiting for mine in the mail, but I'm curious if this one can be used on the eyes like the name implies. I know the big brother Eye Kabuki is used by most for completely different areas of the face - I use mine to buff in concealer.

EM has now launched their new site. The layout is better but overall it's not a hit. Their user forum is practically in a riot state, because they've done some strange (and kinda stupid) things like stop taking paypal and stop shipping to certain countries (Ireland? What's that about?).
Also, there seem to be a lot of glitches, so I'm not sure if anyone has even managed to submit an order yet.
Personally I'm quite happy I ordered a bunch of eyeshadows and stuff I liked last week.

I unfortunately did not place an order last week and I logged on this morning to find a completly new site, it was so different I wondered if I had gone to the wrong site but no just a re-vamp.
They have made a lot of changes including getting rid of their custom kits which is what I had planned to order and no longer accepting Paypal- damn if only I had ordered yesterday.
Oh well I will just have to look elsewhere.
But yes, I checked into their forum while I was there to see when the changes came into effect and it is on fire, I wouldn't want to be dealing with customer complaints over there.

I am sooo annoyed right now. I was browsing the EM site, since I remembered that I really should get a full sized Dandelions e/s because it's basically my go to highlight and I don't want to run out. So I start adding eye shadows I like to my cart and decide to get 12, since they are 45% off then.
Well, I choose my 12 eye shadows, proceed to checkout, and then I realize I had completely forgotten about the no PayPal thing. Before I could just pay with PayPal without leaving my computer. Now I would have had to go and get my credit card, at which point my boyfriend would have known I was shopping online and I'm supposed to try and cut down on my spending.
So, no eyeshadows for me and no business for EM.

Actually, they brought back PayPal about two weeks ago. I guess they gave into the massive complaints.

I'm hoping someone can help me.
I wear Medium Tan (3C) in Bare Minerals and I was wondering what would be a match for me in Everyday Minerals. If it helps I'm an NC30 (Winter) NC35 (Summer) in MAC foundations.
Thank you.

No, not sold in stores. Just online.
I really like a lot of the stuff from Everyday Minerals - really great foundation at really great prices. Love the blush/eyeshadows and concealers (big rave for the colored concealers and the pearl concealers - they're amazing!). The company has gone downhill a little bit - away from its very friendly and customer oriented beginnings but I havent had any problems with ordering from them etc....so long as the prices remain as they are I'd recommend them to anyone.

I think I am going to press some of my EM eyeshadows in to pans. Does anyone have experience with that? Any helpful tips or tricks?

I had to mix 2 different colors to get a close match. I think i used buttery gold (something like that) and medium tan. I tried almost every sample and nothing really matched me so that for me was a buzzkill

I used coastal scents mixing medium. You have to be really careful with the mm, add one drop at the time. I added too many drops and ruined two (ugly) eyeshadows.

That's what I was planning on using, so thanks for the tip!
How much shadow goes into one pan, aprox.? I have a handfull of the bigger full size e/s jars, but I also have loads of the smaller ones. I'm guessing the smaller ones don't hold enough to give a decent sized pressed shadow?
