    I only found out about this product a couple of months ago and fell in love with it. I had to have it so a long search began and I did get my hands on it in the end. It's roughly the same price as...

    I have to add my two cents on Black Ore Solar Bits. I had to really work to get my hands on this, but dang was it worth the effort! Black Ore is a super shimmery dark gunmetal black infused with...

    The Solar Bits are loose pigment powder but don't apply smoothly like pigments, because the consistency is that of little chunks of mineral ore. The chunks must be crushed and spread if you want a...

    Black Ore Solar Bits is just gorgeous. I was so wary of it, I basically bought it because of the hype. When it arrived in the mail I couldn't get over how tiny the packaging was. The cost is...
