Monave 50% Off~1Day!

January 25,2008

Eyes: Mink(3/4lid,crease, outer)Mirage(whole lid and lining)Sand Beige(highlight)
Brows: Mink.

This is more like once in a lifetime. lol  I have never seen a sale like this at Monave.  This foundation is excellent, eye shadows are beautiful and rich. I really liked the blush I tried too. 

This is some of the info I found by "Evita" on Mad about Minerals forum:

"The sale runs from Friday Jan 22nd at 12:01 am to Friday Jan 22nd at 12pm midnight,...  To receive your discount, please use this code MONAVE50 in the promo code box when you place your order!  There are no rain checks or use with other sale..."

Lumiere Pre-Buy Brushes!

Only a couple of days left to order!

My sil and I are going in together so I can save on shipping and insurance. I was too money conscience to spend $8 on it, but $4 is okay. lol  I haven't totally decided what I'm getting, but I know I'm getting the small buffer brush, duo fiber brush $7 ,comparable to MAC 187 that commands $42!, duo fiber blush brush, two pencil eye shadow brushes and maybe another brush or two.

The prices are fabulous and the quality is excellent too. I have a Long Handled Kabuki from last year's pre-buy and it is still super soft. All Taklon even the duo fiber which is ofter a mix of synthetic and pony. The only real complaint I have is my shadow brushes from the travel kit poke my eyelid. Those are a little too stiff and dense for my liking.

This time around the brushes are going to be hot pink and black so totally cute and fun if you have a young lady that loves pink. 

 Lumiere Brushes!

The pictures on the site are just samples not the final color. I will take pictures and share my thoughts when I receive those. I'm getting excited now!

Organic Valley Contest and More

Out of all the ultra-pasteurized homogenized organic milk I've drunk, Organic Valley is the creamiest and best in my opinion. The only thing better is Hartzler's Non Homogenized and Pasteurized if you don't have access to raw.

Organic Valley is having a contest that if you win your food pantry will receive $2500 and you will receive a year's worth of OV products! Just for entering you receive a Root Stock magazine filled with $10 worth of Organic Valley coupons and $2 worth of Organic Prairie.

Enter Contest Here!

Don't forget to print other available coupons if you haven't already!

The Conservatorie 25% Off

Whether you like premade mineral make up or are the adventurous type The Conservatorie could be for you. Right now through tomorrow evening December 1st they are running a special 25% off everything except brushes.

My favorite: Pure Silk Dust! I use it for finishing powder and you get a whole ounce or 30g for less than $6. It will last at least a year or more.

Keep in mind they do require a $15 order minimum before discount, but when it comes to make up it's not hard to do. ;)

I might be trying the Premium Foundation Base and the Warm Blend to mix into it. The nice thing about that is you can adjust the color as your skin changes with the seasons!

Monave “Give the Gift of Healthy Beauty”

Now I no longer order from Monave because I've found other foundations I like better, but this was my first full coverage love. I also switched because Monave is too "enviromentally conscience" for me. I did get a friend rather hooked on it and she is needing more. In case she's not up for adventure and wants to just order what she knows works I found a code for 20% savings.

It's good through January 10 2010. Code GGHB2009 You not only receive 20% off you can request a sample of anything to share with a friend or relative. These smaller companies are wonderful givers and the quality is top notch too! If you ever thought of trying Bare Minerals or another large brand mineral company give one of the smaller companies a try. Your wallet will love it as much as your face.

Mineral Monday ~LaurEss ~Sale

LaurEss! This is my very favorite make up especially the foundations. Along with the foundations, I can recommend the blush and shadows too. I have not try any lip products or finishing powders because I always use pure silk or whip my own concoction for finishing powder.

Foundation First:
Minimalist ~ My favorite It provides a nice buildable coverage that hides pores better than others I've used and blemishes too, yet it doesn't feel heavy. The color selection is vast.
Elemental ~ Barely comes in second This coverage is slightly lighter and just the slightest hint of dewiness. This would be perfect for me in the Summer.

Ethereal~Favorite for Others, but surprisingly I don't like this. (?) This is the heaviest coverage.

Blush: Many beautiful shades to choose! Make sure to click on each category to see all the colors.

• Simply Matte
• Soft Lights
• Candle Lights
• Silk Lights
• Sun Radiance Bronzers

Eye Shadow: This eyeshadow just glides across my lids. Gem Lights is my favorite because those are pearlized, but not sparkly or glitterly.

• Pearl Lights
• Satin Lights
• Star Lights
• Gem Lights
• City Lights
• Pearl Liners
• Gem Liners

Lauren is a fabulous owner that works beside her husband Chris. Lauren is meticulous when it comes to creating her line and it shows. There is also a group link where you can ask her and others questions or if you'd like personal recommendation you can email them. I don't know when the sale ends because this sale has been extended from the original ending date. You will save 10%-20%, this includes samples and the great thing about LaurEss is the prices are already adjusted so there's no figuring or guesswork for you.

Free Homeopathy Samples!

This is a sample I'm looking forward to trying since I prefer alternatives to traditional medicines whenever possible. Boiron is offering free samples if you are a mom with a blog! It can be any blog anywhere. Thanks for sharing this Money Saving Mom.
