WTF!!! Ive been trying to contact them with not much luck. That's totally ridiculous! Their shipping is extremely high. They charge a handling fee plus shipping;( There are other companies who would value your business

$16 for samples shipped to Canada is outrageous.

I paid about 12$ to shipp my samples to Poland from Monave, and I think it's just unfair, while they paid something like 3$ to shipp the samples to me.

For example coconut minerals just shipped my samples for free, and they paid about 0.90$ for shipping, and to tell the truth I would be grateful if more mmu companies was shipping the samples in affordable way.

Joppa minerals also has a huge shipping rates. I wanted to buy from them, but they wanted 15$ flat fee for few samples. It may be good for f/s but not for the samples.

You're right. I just received free samples from coconut bay but haven't had a chance to try them yet.

has anyone tried their cream/liquid foundation?

will any work for NC 15?

I was very disappointed with Monave's samples. They do give you a generous amount, but I felt like every single bump/pore were on better display!

I think I found a color match in Hyeyeon. I wear Everyday Minerals in Light (Golden category) and for all the MAC users... I'm darker than NC30 but lighter than NC32 (I don't get it either).

I don't think I will ever buy from Monave again though. I thought the pricing for just three foundation colors was ridiculous! They don't even give you a sample blush!

Is it true that Monave and Signature Minerals is the same foundation?

 

[agatapas]

No I wouldn't say it's same foundation. I used Signature and Monave and have to say those foundations are totally different.

Maybe Signature is reseller of some Monave products, but certainly not foundations.

You really have to work on having a light hand when using Monave, because the coverage is so great! You don't need a lot at all! Also, if you want to wear it wet, you barely need any on your brush! I hope this helps! Try getting a sample of the concealer foundation and use it just as a spot concealer with a concealer brush, then the normal foundation on top, covering your whole face. Then it won't get cakey or look thick.

I ordered Monave samples from naturesbrilliancebysue.net, they just charge about $2~3 for international shipping, and I ask for the concealer foundation from them also.
