After some searching, I've finally found a decent UK supplier of 3g jars (I prefer 3g to 5g for some reason). I had been ordering from the US which cost a fortune in postage and usually meant a customs charge. Previously, I hadn't had much luck in finding someone selling less than 1000 in the UK and some 5g jars I had bought previously on eBay had been of low quality.
JT Shop sell 3g, 5g, 10g, 20g, and 30g jars in quantities from 2 jars up to lots of 500, with or without sifters. I ordered 50 3g jars without a sifter for £11.95 and £2.99 p&p. I ordered on a Friday night and they were here on the Monday.
They may not be as cheap as when they come from the US, but I think I'll be getting them from here in future.
I agree, I can't use samples out of those little baggies too. I'll check out this store you recommended - do they ship their products inside EU?
ReplyDelete@Babi - Looks like it, they have international shipping mentioned on their site.
ReplyDeleteI don't normally have a problem with this, as I keep all the empty little jars that mineral makeup and pigments come in. But so far I must admit that I have never received samples in baggies.
ReplyDeleteI am the same, I much prefer using a jar than the little bag that the samples/eyeshadows come in.
ReplyDeleteI ordered from their eBay shop before, and I was very pleased with the service/products.
hehe thats where i get mine from and i too prefer 3g over 5g!
ReplyDeletesince i'm from us , can you tell me where you were ordering the jars from? THANK YOU!!
ReplyDelete@spifftiff88 - I ordered from Sweetscents, I'm not sure if there is a minimum order for jars.
ReplyDeleteGreat find!
