product amounts on product pages?

Post by eve » Sun May 10, 2009 5:33 am

The new things like the peptide serums don't have that info and I think it would just be useful information. Some of the other items don't have amounts listed either. Maybe just one page with say blushes: 4g, eyeshadows:2g and what not.

I was shocked when I got the vit c serum and it was so small, I thought I'd ordered a sample by mistake lol. But having used it, I know a tiny bit goes a long way. Still, it's always good to be in the know.

I'd also love some work approriate shadows. matte, light colours would be wonderful. Most of the mattes are darker shades.

Eve,

I checked the product pages, and the amount for the Vitamin C serum is there. I can bold, change the color, or italic that text for that information if you think that will help others find the information more easily.

On the blushes and eyeshadows amounts are listed at the headers (the space just above the product box) for the main blush and eyeshadow pages. I can make the text bigger and change the color if you think that will help. Also, I can add that text to the individual color category headers.
I probably won't get to it until Monday.

There is a thread on the matte shadows. My best suggestion there is to keep that thread going! ;)

They are usually on the top of the category listing- or in the case of skin care they're in the actual description. Net weights are always difficult because we package everything by volume- and each product has a different net weight per teaspoon. I'll go in and double check some things tomorrow.

Some of the serums, and the microderm cream seem a little small when you get them- but they are very very concentrated so that you're getting a good value, and saving a bit on shipping. Generally I try to package at least a 2 month supply in each bottle.

Oooh I see them Jen. For some reason I can't ever remember seeing them before - it'd be great if they were bolded or something. Maybe even put on a separate page for reference would be awesome, though I know that's more work for you busy ladies. Thanks for clearing it up!

The thing I love about the product pages are the huge amounts of information (specifically on the Vit C serum page) but it does make smaller details harder to find.

And it's very well priced for what you get, I really believe that Karen. I just didn't have the instant smaller package relate to the one ounce, maybe because of the lack of product picture, I'm not sure. Anyhoo, I've been using it daily for the past few days and I'm really loving it. I will definintely be reordering.

I couldn't find a volume on the perfecting glow, I'm probably being a bit blind, but how much do we get in them? Thanks!

Perfecting Glow comes in a 10 gram jar. I think there is a teaspoon and a half, the same as blush. I will look into making sure the amounts on those pages.

If anyones sees anything else, I am happy to fix it, or make it more clear, so that the shopping experience is better for everyone.
