adorned with Grace: Defining true beauty

Yes, you read correctly...due to popular demand, we will be extending the sale we have on our Premium Brushes until November 19! Remember, all brushes (except the Premium Eyebrushes under $6) are 10% off right now! No Blog Special for this week but all orders over $15 will get a free Eye/Lip Pencil Sharpener . (Remember, this does not include taxes or shipping so do your math carefully!) There will be no need to add anything to your cart, it will be automatically included. :) HOWEVER, this will **ONLY** be for orders that we receive by Oct. 31. If you place your order in November, we will not be able to honor the deal.

If you stalk our website, you might have noticed that we put up a new Premium brush yesterday as well as a new accessory! Our first new offering is our Premium Mini Eye Buki . (We took a picture of it next to our full sized eyeshadow--that is about the size of a quarter--so you could get an idea of how adorable it was!) Because of popularity of our other mini brush ( Mini Dual Ended ), we thought you all would also enjoy this one! What I like about it, besides its travel-friendly size, is that it has a nice fluffy bristle head that allows for great all over application or blending colors. As with our other Premium brushes, this one is 100% synthetic and assembled in the USA. Then we also have our new Dual Eye/Lip Pencil Sharpener with Cover . It's a tool I know many of you all use if you still wear traditional eye or lip liners (I admit to still using Wet 'n' Wild 666 Lipliner, a Makeup Alley fave!) and a good pencil sharpener is a must! This week's Blog Special is for...

They are finally here! This was actually a good week to release these; the weather has finally turned cooler here in the normally hot and humid state of Mississippi. I think it was actually 48 degrees early this morning, lol! It was a welcome change though. ;) You'll find them here at our Limited Edition page . As with our other collections, make sure to act fast as there are very limited quantities of these (especially of the full-size complete set) and will no longer be stocked once they are gone! A brief rundown on all the colors: Enchanting - A grayed plum with colorful highlights; Inspiring's purple sister. Endearing - A stone colored beige; great for those with more neutral skintones as a highlighter. Enigmatic - An intense blue-grey; similar to Placid but more mysterious! Enthralling - A bright mustard gold; not for the color shy. ;) Enthusiastic - A bright and shimmery light golden yellow; great highlight or base color. Enticing - A rich shimmer purple; complements well...

Before I close up for the weekend, I do want to give you all a heads up that it will be a "long weekend" for awG in that any orders that we receive from now (about 6 p.m. Central Time Friday, Oct.9 to Tuesday, Oct 13) will likely not be shipped until Thursday, Oct 14. Partly because Monday, Oct. 12 is a Postal Holiday and there will be no mail that day, but also since we will be going out of town and not be back to do anything with orders until Wednesday afternoon. So just be aware of that as you know I like to send orders out super fast, but it just won't happen this weekend, lol... Also, I have decided I won't release my LE Fall Colors until the week of Oct. 19. Mostly because I want to release them the same time as my next Blog Special, and there will not be one until that week since next week will be out. Also, it still feels like Summer weather here in the state of Mississippi as today was 80 degrees and it's so hard to get in the mood for Fall, LOL! I'll...

Because we are still catching our breath from last week's very successful sale AND are trying to finish up our Fall 2009 Limited Edition Eyecolors we are going to be holding off on any Blog Specials until we can catch up on that. We are hoping to have them done in the next week or two and the new LE Fall colors will likely be up for sale the second or third week of October. Until then, what is left of our Summer LE Collection will stay up until they sell out (some colors are VERY close!) so if there is one you've been keeping your eye on, make sure to grab them in case they sell out. Thanks to all of you who placed an order last week! Support from loyal customers such as you help keep our online doors open! Make sure to help us advertise via word of mouth (especially if there is a particular product you liked) as that is how small companies like adorned with Grace Minerals grow!!!

CLICK HERE for this week's Blog Special . Make sure to read the important requirement required for the Blog Special carefully! As with our other Blog Special, don't forget that this will end this Friday, Sept. 25. The new brush we have added is a 100% Synthetic (Vegan) Retractable Kabuki ! I have to shamelessly rave about this kabuki and say that it is simply the Ultimate! It is super soft and has just the right amount of density (in our opinion) and you'll definitely want to check these out ASAP because we are offering it at an Introductory Price of $17.99; once we sell out of the current stock we have, the price will go up to $20.49. ***FYI, we wanted to warn you that we may not be able to ship with the "lightning fast speed" that we usually do for those orders specifically placed between this Tuesday and Wednesday morning as our Shipping Department may not be available during then. Thanks ahead of time for understanding!

Just letting you all know there won't be a Blog Special this week as we've decided to hold it off until next Monday or Tuesday (Sept. 21-22). We hope to post up a good one then! I'll have an introductory price on this new brush I have been waiting for so stayed tuned for that as I'll only have limited quantities of this!
