Hi i tried the foundation and the eyeshadow. To be honest it wasnt for. The eyeshadows didnt have the same intensity as the MAC ones and the foundation just dried out my skin. Hopefully other guppies may have had a more positive experience.

Thanks for sharing your view, i've ordered the samples lets c how they go. Mac is just too good, i suppose its difficult to beat! By the way if you dont mind me asking, what is your skin type? is it oily, combination or dry?

hi, do try the samples, you never know it might really suit your skin. My skin is oily combination and i found it just dried out my skin and highlighted my pores. I also have tried bare escentuals and that didnt work for me either, think i've got to stick to liquid foundation. let me know how u get on .

It also dried my skin out and the shimmery particles enhanced my imperfections. The colour selections wasn't all that good either. Most south asians like Everyday Minerals.

I tried the samples before deciding to purchase, they're only a pound each and you pay a small p&p fee so it's not too bad. Whilst using the samples I used to apply a good dose of moisturiser, wait a few minutes and then apply. The only problem I had were with the colours - they were too ashy for me. Coverage wise - I wasn't looking for heavy coverage, so would only apply a small amount - but it was very natural looking.
The colours I selected were - butterscotch and warm honey.

Thanks so much for sharing your opinion, i've had the samples delivered not bad...but im finding it difficult to match to my complexion. I have found the minerals are alot more natural than a liquid foundation. But your right u do need a good dose of moisturiser before you apply.
