Cherryculture.com is a great one-stop destination for sought-after, hard-to-find brands. Most people can't pass up their massive selection of NYX (they carry pretty much the full line!), but there's much more. High- and mid-end brands include Beautyblender, Sugar, Bloom, Jelly Pong Pong, Eyeko, Crazylibellule, Pinky Swear, and Poppies and Freeze 24/7. and more. They also carry amazingly cheap brands many of us have never heard of - Amuse, Santee, Kleancolor, Starry, Splash - but most people who have ordered these products report that they're quite satisfied with the quality. Watch for frequent sales - Cherryculture usually posts its current promotion right on its front page, so you don't need to go digging through coupon sites for the latest news.

About Face cosmetics, sold at theshespace.com, is a small company that sells great loose eye shadow and more. You can easily create looks that range from simple sophistication to daring dazzlers. Colors can be boldly pigmented or sheer washes (that can be spruced up by using wet). There is a wide array of shades to choose from. The owner has great customer service and ships within 2-4 days. If you have a question about anything she is great at responding in a timely matter. Samples come in bags with enough to use quite a few times. Full size jars are 3 grams, and only $4.

Fyrinnae.com is well loved on the board for its wonderful loose eyeshadows!  They have fantastic wet AND dry swatch pictures of each of their many colors.  The color shown is their most popular color, "Fyre & Ice".  Their eyeshadow samples are very inexpensive and come in convenient jars instead of baggies.  Many on the board also love their rice powder foundation primer for oily skin!  Be aware, however, that their processing time is usually very very long as they are a small company with a HUGE fanbase!
