Everyday Minerals’ Jane Austen collection

These colors, released in seasonal rotation, have just a bit less eyeshadow than a sample jar (an EDM 5-gram sifter jar holds 1 gram, according to the labels; so the compacts probably have .7 gram of each color). The colors were first released in a kit (white compact) with a mini-brush. The individual colors were then available in mini sizes (10-gram jars) through the EDM storefront.

Eventually I did get Anna Karenina - one pot from Everyday Minerals, when they finally re-released it; and one pot from a former EDM user.
