Hi Violeta

Just email the company and request samples. I believe the owner still visits here from time to time. She post under the name teporah.

Thanks for stepping in PGW! :)

Violeta, the link is: http://monave.com/

Look at their colors, etc. Then click on Contact.

When I did that, I told them what *I* thought my coloring was, and which shades I thought would be good for me. I included the foundation colors and some of the other colors.

Teporah (the site owner?) emailed me back and asked me a few questions. It took another 3 weeks or so before I got the samples, but I am really excited about the selection I received! :)

You also might look back through this board and look at some of the other discussions on Mineral Make up. There are other companies, too, but I think this is the only one I requested samples from.

HTH

I got my envelope with samples about 2 days ago.

I got the same foundation samples in little jars as you did Teacherbear, but nothing else. :( Lucky you that you got all those colors as well!

I have to try the shades this weekend and compare them to the BE.

When I asked for the samples, I told Teporah which colors I liked from all of the products, because I didn't know what kinds of samples she would be willing to send.

I used one of the colors from the little baggies this weekend. It was a little difficult to get it out of the bag without making a mess. If I had been at home (I was out of town), I would probably have put it into an envelope for easier access.

Anyway, I REALLY like the Monave powders!
