Halloween and Mutiny information

Posted by Ellie on October 27th, 2009 § 12,207

Hello everyone,CreepyHalloween Tag

While writing this I will be thinking of the correct name for this post. There are a few things I wish to update everyone on…
First of all the large sale that is coming up…I will put the code in action mid day on the 30th. One reason I do this is for my international customers who are a day ahead of us…
I am going to give you the code today although it won’t go into affect until the 30th.

Okay the code is Trick or

Now if you put Treat in the space at the bottom of shopping cart during check out you will get a surprise in your package…

I will be making up the gifts over the next couple of days..so they will truly be a surprise…

Any email orders will also get the gift if they ask for the treat…

Now on to other business….

As many of you may or may not know there is a mutiny of sorts going on. If you follow many of the mineral makeup blogs you will see that ladies are upset about buying makeup that has been either repackaged, which mean either the seller has finished off the mica without adding any other color or has just placed it in a jar without doing anything finishing at all or resold.

The repackagers who create a finished product from the micas are usually very honest and also trustworthy…they do this mixing so that the color will last longer for the customer, while the product that is just thrown in a jar as a straight mica is frown upon totally. The color doesn’t last as the finished product does and ladies are upset with not being told that it was repackaged.
There is nothing wrong with the repackager who mixes something to finish off the mica or the reseller, if that is their choice…

it’s just sad to me that the repackager wouldn’t want to play with the beautiful micas that are available and make a shadow or blush that is totally unique.

There is also nothing wrong with someone who wants to buy from a wholesaler and put their products up for sale. Some have started that way and then expanded so they sell both. But if they resell, the problem is that ladies buy from 2 different companies never knowing and end up with the same product…this is what upsets them.

So these ladies are speaking out their opinions only…they are trying to figure out if someone is a reseller, repackager or someone who makes all their own products so the confusion doesn’t keep happening. Right now in the makeup field it is big news for some.
As many of you may know, DreamWorld or rather myself make all my own products. There are only 2 of my shadows that I do very little to because they are beautiful colors on their own…

I happen to be lucky enough to be friends with a blogger who is very honest and nice. The sad part for all these bloggers who are out there being honest and trying to warn everyone is that they are putting themselves in the line of fire. Some have already been accused of lying and defamation…which I promise is not true at all. To me this is one of the saddest things….

Many companies have already stepped up to claim that they make their own products. DreamWorld is one of these. I have from the beginning made all my own products. I have tested, played and some have seen where it is taking me awhile to come out with something that I have been planning…all because it is taking longer to perfect so it doesn’t hit the store until it does.

I have been asked at times to dupe a product that someone likes in another line…What I have done and will continue to do is this…I will make the product, but it will NOT be like another companies…I will make it the way I do and it will be mine. Each company should have the ability to have their own products without someone continually copying them. The makeup world is a small one and sadly, even with internet getting smaller every day. It is so hard to trust someone, so I hope when you are looking for makeup, you will notice the banner or badge of authenticity that the company is wearing and know that it is safe to buy from there….

And please support the bloggers who are putting themselves in the line of fire by being as honest as they can be…
