In my search for looking for more indie cosmetic companies I came across
My Beauty Addiction on Facebook and looked into their line. One thing that stuck out to me was I loved their selection of 200+ minerals and I /had/ to have the Molten Metals Collection. MBA is run by Sherrie in Ohio and can be found on
Facebook,
Etsy & their
personal webpage.

The colors are beautiful and apply smooth. The sample sizes are generous but there is some fall out from opening the jars and closing them. Nothing too extreme but there will be some shadow 'dust' that will swoop out and sprinkle whatever surface it lays on due to being topsy turvy in shipping. I would just suggest opening and closing slowly and storing the containers flat. I would still prefer these storage containers over baggies because I always make a mess with bags.
Some of these colors are very similar to the primary pigments I have from BFTE. Smolder is almost an exact dupe of Vamp. I'm not sure if these are repackaged pigments, as it's not listed on MBA's site if they sell them as such, but a few colors are pretty close.
