This follows up to my earlier post about Simply Naturals' multi-use mineral makeup (visit Simply Naturals' website), but while that one provided overall impressions of the company and a general review of their line, this one provides details about the specific colors. My personal favorite colors (so far) are Gypsy, Blaze, Plum Tree, and Plum Shimmer.

Some background on the "model": I have fair skin, blue eyes, and light brown hair. The BE foundation that works best for me is 9 grams of Fair (1.0) mixed with 2 grams of Light (2.0).

Similar to: name of similar Bare Escentuals eyeshadows/glimpses/glimmers. I own over 60 BE eyecolors, and BE is a well-known brand, so this just provides another point of reference. (I don't own any Aromaleigh, Signature Minerals, Sheer Cover, or any of the other loose-powder lines, so can't accurately compare. If someone who does own these wants to make a one-to-one comparison of the Simply Naturals colors and provide the matchups, email me and I'll list the information as well as credit the donor.)

Description: my impression of the colors - its characteristics, quirks, special traits, some suggested uses.

Color listings

This isn't an exhaustive list of all colors available from Simply Naturals. This is just the ones I have, or have tried as samples, as of June 2008. Visit their site to view all their colors, as well as their other products.

Alphabetical


Colors

Some of the colors are listed in two groups. That's because, to my eye, the color could fall into either category.

Pinks / Reds Peaches / Oranges Golds / Yellows
Greens Blues Purples
Blacks / Greys / Whites Browns / Tans
