| Alima is pretty much my favorite make up brand right now. Everything they sell is gorgeous and high quality. Right now I'm just addicted to their foundation, brushes, blush, and eye shadows, and I'm planning on trying their lip glosses next.^-^ |

| I have been using Alima products for about 6 months now and I love it. I have no complaints. They are also very helpful if you have questions. |

Liz, you have to try their lip glosses! When I had inquired about an EDS discount, Kate sent me the wine gloss for free and it's beautiful on. It's very moisturizing and has decent staying power for what it is. I always get compliments when I wear it! |

Do a quick search under product reviews and a bunch of rave threads should come up. I am an Alima fanatic and I doubt that I will even bother trying another brand because Alima is perfect in terms of quality, service, colour match, ingredients, and price  |

Olyn, you temptress you!!!! I've been trying to hold off on the glosses because I want to order them when I order my blush, and I'm still using my samples and narrowing them down. So far I've narrowed the blushes down to 4 colors: Sugar Rose, Dianthus, Peony, and Guava. I'm hoping to narrow it down to at least 3 before I order, but I might just cave and order them all, LOL! |

| Oh... I'm so dissapointed! I really wanted to like the Alima MMU... After getting several samples to match my skintone, I ordered a full size of the MMU foundation. I don't know what it is, but everytime I put it on, my skin gets so itchy. And I've tried changing up my applicator (in case the brush was the culprit) and applied with a sponge, a different brush, to no avail. I'm quite dissapointed because the colour selection of this line is remarkable and I was able to find a great colour match. But I guess it's just not for me... something in there is making me itch when I have it on. |

| I really like the alima mmu. I also tried about 4 samples of blush and they are nice too. Its a little messy having loose powder for your blush, but the colors are very pretty. The samples they sell are large and last a long time. I put the powder in my 2 year olds little bowls to keep the spillage down to a minimum. I may need to try the gloss now after reading the review. |

| I ordered a bunch of samples from Alima recently. I was so happy when I received them, they are gorgeous colors! I had high hopes for the foundation,because their golden undertone shades look so beautiful. But everytime I put it on, it looks chalky and BF even asks me why my face looks powdery. I gave it time to set (1-2 hrs) and it never did. Everytime I pick up the sample the gold looks so awesome I am tempted to try all over again. I love their Desert Rose blush, Cedar eye shadow and Onyx liner though and will be ordering full size samples. |

| I'm a total Alima girl. I've been using this line for about a year and a half now and I'm totally addicted. It's the first foundation that i found to match (even during transition periods with the coloring of my skin when I had to mix certain shades together). I have tons of blushes and eye shadows and still looking to add more. I'm in big trouble when the new brush line comes out at the end of August. You must all try the brushes! They are FABULOUS. The SOFTEST you will ever use and of really great quality. |

I want to try the brushs too, especially the famous #25 brush. and I am waiting for them to come back in stock before ordering, which is taking a longer time than I expected. 
hope they are back soon. |
