BRONZERS AND BODY SHIMMERS
The lightweight shimmers and bronzers add that extra flair for that sassy side of you. Have fun with a shimmering body or a glowing face. Brush with a big soft makeup brush to parts you would like accentuated. For a more pronounced sexy cleavage, brush a little shimmer into your cleavage and smudge in towards throat. For more well-defined shoulders, brush shimmer or bronzer onto your shoulder at the top of your arm. The dazzling colors are a perfect compliment to your natural tone. Use a soft, fluffy brush and knock off any excess powder. Then, depending on the look you want to achieve, apply directly to the areas of your face or body you would like to accentuate.
NOTE: Since we changed the Eye Shadows almost 6 months ago and failed to change the other mineral makeup prices till now you will find that we have had to make those changes. The reality is that our suppliers all raised their prices and continue to by over 500% in the last year alone and while we must raise ours, we could not make that big an adjustment but instead split the difference with our customers and raise some and lower our margin some. The reality is that mineral makeup is hot and now that the big boys, IE. Maybeline and many other big cosmetic companies are in to it, the demand for materials has created a huge shortage and thus the suppliers are going crazy with their pricing. There are only 3 main suppliers of raw ingredients to the mineral makeup industry and not only did they raise their minimums they have also raise their prices on a large quantity too. To the point where we were so close to just discontinuing the mineral makeup products altogether. I know it is hard and not a pleasant suprise, but it really is all we can do at this time. We will continue to watch for price decreases and will make those adjustments when we can. On a positive note, the cost per unit is still very affordable when you take into account the actual costs.
If this cost $206 for 16oz and you get at least 1300 units then the cost per unit is only $0.16 each. Add your packaging cost and you have your real cost per unit. That is an awesome return on your investment.
EXAMPLE:
Raw Material Cost: $.16
Packaging Cost: $1.00 (Estimated High as typical packaging for this size is around .25 cents)
Total: $1.16
Times Profit Margin: 250% (Normal Wholesale Makeup Margin)
Wholesale Price: $4.06
MSRP: $12 to $15
