I just found out last night that PMUP is discontinued.

I'm wondering how it compares to Benefit's Powderflage, but I think THAT has been discontinued, too, but I saw there were some (supposed) dupes for the Powderflage.

I'm super bummed. I only have my itty bitty containers. I know they'll last a while, but they won't last forever.

I hereby formally request a dupe.



Oxana - do you happen to know the ratio of Sunlight to Pearl Beige (or remember, after so long)?

I'm going to try Flattery, and Sleep in a Jar Extra Light Peach. Hopefully one of those will suffice, but I sure do wish they would dupe the EDM stuff. I can't believe EDM stopped making them.

I think Karen doesn't dupe EDM because it's an indie company (or was, i suppose one could argue it stopped being "indie" quite some time ago...) and it's kind of in bad taste to dupe another indie company. It's one thing to take an expensive mainstream product and make a non-chemical version of it. It's another to make the exact same product and just undercut the people who created it/made it popular (even if their customer service isn't nearly as great as Karen's)


Have any of you tried something like cherry blossom shadow in place of pick me up pink?

That would be somewhat true, if EDM still made the products. But then there is the whole customer service nightmare that made some of us swear off ever buying from EDM again.

I was wondering about a shadow - thanks for the input - going to check it out now...
