@Judaline

I think her products have many Pros:
*cruelty free
*quality ingredients
*does not overwhelm with 6 or 8 types of the same product one just slightly different from the other.
*community oriented
*great C.S.

Cons:
*price - rarely has sales or discounts, no loyalty discounts
*samples are not readily available
* while I wear little make-up I want what I do wear to count, eye shadows are a bit pale for me, I want Plum, she offers Lavender.

All said I regularly use 2 of her products and am pretty sold on them.
You might poke around on her website.

@Drythe Jane's products have been having alot of sales lately on dermstore.com and beauty.com and pharmaca.com. All three just had 20 and 25% off. Also, her products were recently on Hautelook. I think they are starting to allow sales more. In this economy, if you don't adjust your prices a bit or allow sales, you are going to start losing alot of sales.

What two products do you regularly use?

@Sister Golden Hair Thanks-I was wondering about the eyelid primer? The reviews on make up alley were not good-but I just want it as is-not with eye shadow over it. Her products kind of overwhelmed me at Soft Surroundings. So many. I pretty much wanted everything. No can do.

@Judaline I haven't heard of that product. I do use the Circle/Delete that I like for under the eyes.

I like Bobbi Brown's cream eyeshadow that I use alone or for a base. This is a great product and you can use bone for a primer.

Why don't you goggle to see if there is someone in your area that sells her products.

It is nice to see things in person.

I do love her eyeshadows and have never had a problem when just using alone.

There is a kit that you can purchase with several different products, kind of like a try-me on her website. That might be the way to start.

I will get you a picture.

Color Sample Kit @Judaline This is not very big but would give you a chance to try several products.$32.00

I love this Jane Iredale kit. Note that the little circles are not big but when do we ever really get through palettes? It is a great way to try a variety of things without too much money invested. It even includes the Supernova shadow SGH mentioned:

Jane Iredale Glamour Eye & Lip Palette

They also have starter kits:

I'd like to try this sometime. Looks fun!

@HappyDaze I also, have the top kit and like it. It is really small but for travel or to just try different colors, it is great. And the case is really cool.

I have bought some of the eyeshadows and they now come in a pretty gold case.

I bought "Mermaid and Forest".

Did you ever get "the Handi" brush? It is different than the one in the second group.

I've only tried her lipstick in the peach. Great product.

Nice pictures. I'm interested, thanks.

I tried this line way back when we started to hear a lot of buzz about mineral makeup more than 20 years ago now. Iredale had better colors for my skintone than BareMinerals and the other mineral brands. I didn't stick with it because I tired of mineral makeup and went back to regular foundation. My opinion of the foundation and the other products (I tried) from the line is positive, but not enough to make me a devotee of the brand. I have not purchased an Iredale product in years.
