Everyday Minerals Dilemma!!!

Hey girls, desperately need some advice QUICK!
I’ve been using only EM makeup for the past two years, I usually keep my stocks up but this morning realised that my Kaolin Powder Fair probably only has one more week’s worth of powder…
I went on the website this morning to do a rush order, only to find they only have the kaolin powder fair in sample size!!!
Can anyone recommend a different brand, or something I could get in priceline that is a similar product?
I’m not after a foundation, just a mattifying powder to minimise the shine on my skin.
Thanks!

    Good news Empire thanks for sorting that out 🙂

    that’s awesome! I can’t wait to try my trial pack and see which one I like before buying the big ones.

    Glad to hear that you can purchase the kaolin powder, Empire.
    Most the products I’ve tried from EDM are good, tho, I’m not a fan of the lipsticks. I don’t normally throw makeup away, but recently got rid of most of the lipsticks, not because of the colour, but most are quite gritty in texture.

    I’ve just checked the website and the big size is back in stock, WOOHOO!
    I’ll still have to buy something to tie me over because of the delivery time… won’t let myself run out again!

    Thanks for the offer michelle! apparently it is a technical glitch?
    I got this reply from EDM;

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting us. The Kaolin Powder Fair should be available in both the sample and big size. I have forwarded this over to the appropriate department so that they can look into this. 🙂 Please let us know if you have any questions.

    Cristy,

    I have a stack of unopened edm still, lol i’m still trying to work my way through it all, i’ll have a look and see if i have any kaolin powder there, i get the feeling there isn’t but i could be wrong. If there is you are welcome to it, i dont use the kaolin anymore. Otherwise if you are desperate what about ebay, i often see edm on there.

    agreed melmeko!! I thought I still had another pot to go and was in quite a panic when I realised I only had a few days left of my current (and last) pot!!
    I’ll post up if/when I get a reply from carina.

    Hopefully they will be back in stock before mine runs out, eek, I love this too much and although I use heaps of other translucent powders nothing really cuts the shine like my EDM one does!!

    thanks for the link blackmagic, that’s crossed savvy off the list for me! the reviews pretty much slammed it lol.

    Yeah the try me free kits are great, that’s how I first started using EM too to work out my right colours.
    Things have been changing alot with this company, you used to be able to get all eyeshadows and blushes in HUGE ‘sample’ pots for just $2.50 which even with everyday use would last me over 12 months. But the samples seem to be on the way out, now there’s this ‘travel size’ in a roll-on tube but I just can’t see how that would work.
    If you search everyday minerals in the posts I think there are a few forum topics on it, the brand is quite popular with many of the beauties on here 🙂

    I had loads of fun on the EM sight and bought an eyeliner/shadow brush and then got that $5 trial set in Light. So all up I payed $12 including postage for the light trial set, the eyeshadow/liner brush and postage! That’s in american dollars but very similar.

    The trial set was free!!! (was $5) So anyone wanting to get one, its a good way to trial the products before purchase.

    I was sad most of the collections were out of stock as I really wanted to get a couple of those… I prefer sets than buying single products!
