Dont know if this has been posted here before but thought i share this. You can get a free sample kit from there and only have to pay for shipping. In the kit you can choose 3 sample size mineral foundation colors, 1 blush, and 1 concealor.
I think this is great for those looking to try out things.
I also bought a kabuki brush and found a 5% promo code on google. |

| About how much is shipping for the sample kit? I got to the point where I have to put in my billing information and there's no shipping estimate yet. I hate when they pop it on you at the last moment. |

And you can also order as many sample kits as you like, although not in the same order. I had to get four kits in order to find my perfect foundation colour.
Btw, I'm light-medium, neutral with a tendency of yellow, and my best colour choice is Medium Beige Neutral, in the Original Glo formulations. I have now ordered a fullsize of it, and plan to use it as my everyday foundation, because it's so affordable. I also adore the Multitasking concealer, which I use under my eyes, but also on my eyelids instead of eyeshadow. And the plum dust blush is also very nice.  |

I doubt that, because that would be equal to ordering several sample kits with the same order. The postage is reasonable still; 5 USD something for international shipping, 3 USD something for US shipping.
So my advice is to try your best at picking colors, wait for the package, test them, and then, if you're not lucky with the matching, go for more samples. Otherwise, they might stop offering this super service of having free sample kits. |

| i wonder how long their shipping actually takes? The day i ordered from them, i also made an order from EDS. I Have received my order from EDS yesterday but havnt from EDM. I mean i know they are in different locations but still shipping shudnt take that long. I mean i have ordered stuff from US before and they dont take that long. How long a time should i give in terms of waiting? BTW i am from NZ. |

| I think it would be about 2 to 3 weeks from the time you ordered. You can check the status of the order if you log in to your account. When they have good discounts and free gifts, the turnaround is slower. If you ordered in the last week, it would be slower, probably closer to 3 weeks. |

| Mine took less than a week but I'm in the US so I don't know if that's a factor. The samples are great! I got 3 foundations a blush, and a concealer. It was $3 for shipping! |

Auu - this is a very old thread. The Try Me kits are no longer free, unless you buy something:

I'm ordering some samples from this line, as both EDS and MUA have great reviews on the foundation.
But I was wondering how everyone chose their colors? It's a first dab for me into makeup and the whole cool, warm, fair, light thing isn't quite helping. |

After a recommendation on these forums I ordered one of the try me samples since I was unsure as to which colour to get as well. If you go to the "Try Me Free" tab, you can order sample kits that come with 4 colours, each are a different formulation, to see which colour, and formulation, works. And if you order more that one of the samples, the second one is free (I think if you order anything over $5 you can get a try me kit for free - I got the ivory base kit and the anit-shine kit for $5 + shipping). The samples are generous and they shipped same day. |
