PRIIA's Mineral Foundation and Primer You Tube Review!

I received a text the other day from a friend who asked me if I'd seen the You Tube product review for PRIIA's Essential Cover Mineral Foundation & HydraPrime oily skin primer.  I hadn't seen the review yet, but my friend said it was really good.  As soon as I got back to the office, I went to this blog, AGRLCANMAC, and was totally giddy after watching her video review of my products!  Here it is below:

 

You can read the rest of Milan's review along with her picture wearing PRIIA here.  She's gorgeous to begin with, but her complexion looks positively radiant while wearing PRIIA!

Thanks Milan for the stellar review!  I'm thrilled you're loving your PRIIA goodies. ;-)

PRIIA Cosmetics Loves Customer Feedback & Here's Why...

The other night as I was finishing up emails for the evening, a message entered my inbox with the subject line: "Your foundation is awesome!!!"

I smiled and immediately began reading the email.  Here's what it said...

"Hi Kelley,

I don't know if you remember me, but I had left you a message on Facebook around a month ago telling you how much I love your foundation, but that I needed a color match.  I found it!  Amber matches my skin perfectly and brightens up my skin!  I absolutely love it!  It is really good at controlling oil on my face too; I rarely have to touch up or blot my face when I use your makeup.  It looks freash all day.  I received my sample of Amber, and I found I was reaching for it more than my $60 foundation.  When I used up my sample completely, I felt completely at a loss!  I immediately placed my order for the foundation, and I noticed it just shipped.  I am absolutely impressed with your makeup.  I am also planning on starting my own beauty blog soon (the only thing stopping me is I can't find the perfect name!), and if it's ok with you, I would love my first post to be about PRIIA makeup."

Thank you!
Priya Naidu

I was absolutely thrilled when I read Priya's message.  There's such a sense of satisfaction I get when I know my products have helped another person feel great about themselves and the purchase they've made with PRIIA Cosmetics.

If you haven't tried PRIIA for yourself yet, I hope you will.  It's unlike other mineral makeup brands you've tried- we guarantee it.  ;-)

Women of Color...PRIIA Cosmetics Has Got YOUR Color!

When I formulated the mineral foundation colors for PRIIA Cosmetics, I was determined to have shades that would work well for women of color.  Why?  Because most foundation shades being sold to women of color DON'T WORK!  They're either too red, too orange, and/or look gray & ashy once they're applied. 

As an esthetician & makeup artist, having a limited amount of colors in my kit was more than frustrating!  Every time I had a women of color in my chair for a makeover or cosmetic consultation, I was soooo limited in the choices I had to use on her skin.  So, when I was creating PRIIA, I was bound and determined NOT to have to deal with these issues any longer.  If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself...

At PRIIA Cosmetics, we offer 28 shades of mineral foundation of which 13 are specifically for women of color!  Our range starts with the softest honey tone and follows through to the deepest ebony.  None of which will make your skin look ashy or pasty.  The coverage is amazing and it will give your skin a beautiful, radiant luminosity without looking shiny or sparkly. 

 

But don't take our word for it.  Below is an email our staff received the other day from a VERY satisfied customer who happens to be a woman of color.  I wanted to share this email because it really touched my heart.  Read on...

Date: 5/13/09
From: Jacqueline Wilson
Subject: Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!

Dear Kelley,

I found out about your line from Todra.  So I took the plunge and placed a sample order.  Highly skeptical, but eagerly anticipating their arrival.

I have to tip my hat to you, my dear.  As an African American woman who has searched high and low for the perfect mineral makeup.  I have purchased, returned and thrown away so many minerals it's ridiculous.  But now, I can finally say that my search is Ova, finito, done!  In the past I had issues with irritation, redness, gray or ashy tones.  However, with PRIIA, those issues are a thing of the past.  I love the slight glow from the foundation and the pumped up glow from the Satin Complexion Enhancers.

Thank you so much for the quality mineral makeup.  I have passed the word on to my friends and family- they've all complimented me on my 'new' glow. :)

Keep up the good work & continued success.  I look foward to being a long time customer.

-Jacqueline Wilson

WOW!  Was than an incredible testimonial or what??!  We're tickled pink that our customers have finally found a product that really works and lives up to its promises.

So, have YOU tried PRIIA yet?  What are you waiting for?  Makeup mistakes are a thing of the past when you're a PRIIA Cosmetics customer!  We offer inexpensive sample sizes to test drive before committing to a full-size purchase.  You can find your exact shade without breaking the bank!

Customers Are Talking About PRIIA Cosmetics

To me, nothing is more gratifying than when a customer tells you how much they're enjoying your product and/or service.

As you many know, PRIIA Cosmetics opened its "doors" on March 15th, 2009.  Orders came in and we shipped them right out, not really expecting to hear back from these customers right away.  Wow, was I surprised (and delighted) when I received the following emails...

"I got my first shipment yesterday and I was surprised at how beautiful the eye shadows were- the web site doesn't do the colors justice.  I've NEVER had any makeup so silky and smooth.  The best makeup I have ever worn!  It felt like I had none on at all, yet it made me look gorgeous!  All without clogging my pores and making me breakout.  The mineral foundation is AMAZING.  I will DEFINTELY stick with PRIIA!" - E. Reis, Pennsylvania

"I arrived home today after work to find my box of samples from PRIIA Cosmetics in the mailbox.  First off, they arrived pronto!  I didn't expect them until next week, but they were there and beckoning me to try them.

Every product that I put on my skin- cleanser, toner, foundation, blush, eye shadow, lip products- the whole shebang- felt like I was infusing my pores with nutrients long missing from my arsenal of skin care products.  My skin felt so fresh after using the Fruit Smoothie Exfoliating Serum, and the cosmetic powders are milled to such a fine consistency, that my skin looks silky and smooth (and it's really not).

The eye shadow colors are terrific and they go on so well.  I love the colors: Truffle, Gold Finger, Snowfall and Dusty Lilac.  I have them all on at once and they are subtle and beautiful!  I've only started to play with these products, and I'll be having a great weekend trying out all the color combinations.  Dear PRIIA (and Kelley), thank you so much!  You've created a very high quality line, and I am delighted.  YAY!" - L. Turnage, L.E., Nirvana Skin Care, New Hampshire

You can imagine my delight when I opened and read these wonderful testimonials.  They're sort of a validation to me that all of the hard work and sweat equity that goes into making PRIIA Cosmetics is appreciated by those who are using and enjoying the products.

So, have YOU tried PRIIA yet?  Visit www.priia.com and get your hands on these incredible products now and save 10% too!  Just enter this discount code at checkout: PRIIA

But, you better hurry...PRIIA's Grand Opening Sale ends on March 31st, 2009!
