Blac Minerals: a little of the blush goes a long way. Also, with the way mineral make up is designed, you have to be very careful how you open it and apply it. I took it work and ended up painting our cream counters raisin because the loose powders flew everywhere. However, the blush did give me a nice glow. I haven’t used the setting powder enough to fairly comment on it, so I’ll pass. As far as the glosses go, I’m a lip stick/gloss fanatic and I know what’s good. The coverage from the glosses I ordered were poor. I had to overly apply the cosmetic to see any color and when I did, I ended up looking clownish. Also, the color in the pot doesn’t truly mimic the colors from the site and what it looks like on your lips. Full disclosure: my lips are two-toned, with a pink lower lip and tawny-pink upper lip.

By comparison, the Ada lip glosses faired better. The actual coverage from thier glosses was great…it went on like a creamy lipstick and I applied it with a regular old q-tip. I used the q-tip because I received a sampling of other colors from the company that were dipped on a q-tip. One sample lasted me two generous applications. The color selection was decent and I can’t honestly recall if what I received resembled what was shown on their site, but if anyone is truly interested, I’ll do a comparison.

Hope this helps!
