2 free sample shadows with purchase: White Rabbit - shimmery white with pink cast & Temptress - shimmery dark teal

Swamped - metallic forest green

This was sale of the week when I made the purchase for $5. The new jars all come with sifters, and each full size products contain 1.5g of mineral shadows.

This was the limited edition Akham collection. It was inspired by comic super heros. I literally bought this set on the last day of it's sale! Again, all the swatches were done without any primer/base. These shadows all have a nice shimmery effect mixed with matte colors. They are very gentle on the skin, and pigmented but soft at the same time. It's recommended to be used either wet or dry, with or without a primer. They also sell a vegan primer on their website for $10 a tin jar which is quite similar to the Glamour Doll Eyes "Control Freak" eye primer. They usually offer a different eyeshadow for sale of $5 every week, and the full size shadows cost $7.00 each. There are also permanent collections as well as limited edition sets. They have lip products as well which I haven't tried yet. Overall, I really like Concrete Minerals products, and I think they deserve to be rated on the same level as Glamour Doll Eyes, Lime Crime, and Sugar Pills.
