Before I get started I just want to say I was super happy with my order from BRM! :) It came in a reasonable amount of time… the website has lots of options for people just wanting to try out the company, and people on a low budget. :)
My order came wrapped up in this adorable baggy. :)
Hand written thank you. :) Always a nice touch!
Samples and goodies in a little baggy. :) (also I apologize for my terrible looking nails, house cleaning did a number on them. >.<)
Inside was tons of stickers, sparkly confetti, a business card, and hand written thank you note, and 2 extra samples! :) I think this is by far the most personalized package I’ve ever received from and Indie cosmetic company. :) So thoughtful and sweet. :)
Not to mention I freakin’ love the packaging! Roses are my favorite flower! :) and red is one of my favorite colors. :D
The pots are sealed which is a bonus in my book :) no spillage during shipping. :)
The stickers don’t *quite* fit the bottom of the pots… but who really cares about that. :P Especially when the website, color name, ingredients, amount, appropriate places for application, and whether or not it’s vegan or not, all on the sticker. :D
This is what the color Sushi looks like in the pot. You can choose whether or not you want a sifter or not. I opted for no sifter because it’s easier for me sometimes. :)
Swatches of the samples. :)
And now the swatches of the colors I bought. :D
Over all I’d give Black Rose Minerals a 10! :) Great colors, really pigmented… Medusa is the most GORGEOUS green I’ve ever had… and I’ve been searching for such a green ever since I discovered pigments! :) I love it!! The other colors are gorgeous as well. :) The packaging was very thoughtful and organized. I can’t wait to create more looks with these pigments. :)

So I’ve been using Mon Ennui for a few months now and have been wanting to do a review on them so you guys can all see how freaking amazing these pigments/glitters are!
You’ll have to be patient with me because I took A TON of pictures of the colors that I have ordered over the past few months…
Some of them look different in each picture due to the amazing duo-chrome qualities, and some colors even have 3 or 4 different color shifts! AMAZING! :)
SO.
When you order Mon Ennui, you get your package in a pretty awesome turn-around time. It’s wrapped up in a plastic baggy like so…
When I ordered the owner was having an awesome secret code sale and one of the codes I used came with a FREE XL glitter. :D AMAZING DEAL!!
ALL of Mon Ennui pigments come with a seal inside them. :) Sanitary, and non-messy! :)
The picture above is an example of her small size jars. :) They are cheaper than the large 10g jars, and are great if you just want to try out a color to see if you like it or if you’re on a tight budget. :) She also has deluxe samples available. :)
OK! Now the fun part… swatches! :) I’m putting these under a “Read more” since there are SO many pictures. :)
Notes: 4
My package came wrapped up in beautiful tissue paper :) with a hand signed note. :)
She sent me FOUR extra samples with my order! :)
The jarred pigments have a seal on the outside and on the inside! Very awesome! :)
She also hand-wrote a “thank you” on the seals of one of the jars. :) Such a nice thought.
These next swatches are of the samples :)
The next swatches are the sale colors that I ordered :) SO CHEAP!!!
All swatches were swatched over NYX high definition eye shadow base. :)
All in all… I recommend this company to anyone that loves highly sparkly colorful pigments for an AWESOME price! :) I LOVE the colors that I bought and will probably buy more in the future! :) Try them out!!!
