I order 7thDayShine because nothing is available in person in my Jewish corridor. I prefer the ingredients in that line (she sent me a list). I also have a cart with Shabbos Brushups ready to go, but have not yet pulled the trigger. 7thDayShine has been my choice for Shabbat and Yom Tovs this year.

Are you happy with what you got?

I’m very happy with what I bought. Bracha is amazing to work with. She answered all of my questions thoroughly and in a day. And she voluntarily sent me a basic ingredient list and invited me to ask questions about specific colors if I had them (I didn’t have more specific questions about colors; my question was about base ingredients and preservatives, if any). I started with a foundation sample pack, which helped me pick my perfect shade and thoroughly test it before investing. I felt very comfortable with my purchase when I made it, and I’m about to purchase a third time when the product I’m looking for is restocked so I’m only paying once more for shipping for a while, for a few more products I want to buy.

Shabbos Brushups looks like it has better packaging, but there are things about that line that I’m not as enthusiastic about. And for the price and non-return-ability, I need to be careful. Buying from these frum businesses isn’t like buying from department stores with more liberal return policies.

Also, it seems like 7thDayShine is more quickly expanding their distribution, which is a very positive sign.

Whose Bracha ?
Did you have to pay a lot for shipping?

The American dollar is outrageously high now. As I mentioned I live in Canada.
I keep holding off buying the makeup as it’s obviously not a necessity.
But on shabbos I look so pale & bla

Bracha is the owner of 7thDayShine, along with her husband. You can choose different shipping speeds at checkout, which cost different amounts. You can also buy this line from The Address online store, with free shipping, but a $200 minimum order. I recommend getting a foundation sample pack from the 7thDayShine website; I believe it ships free if that is all you are getting. You can use that as a guide for other products if you are unsure.

I love 7thDayShine so much, the foundation and shimmer powder are also my daily face makeup. The powder layers well, and conceals better and more natural-looking than any non-Shabbos concealer makeup I’ve used before. I have two brush sets, one for Shabbos (the 7thDayShine brush set, plus a Static foundation brush because I prefer that one, with flat bristles and a long handle), and another one for weekday makeup. But I use Shabbos foundation and blush for weekday and Shabbos because I love the product and formulation.

I wouldn’t be surprised if some large cosmetics company wants to buy either 7thDayShine or Shabbos Brushups one of these years. 7thDayShine seems to be growing with retail locations.

I got 7th Day Shine and am really happy. When I ordered I needed it for Shabbos and unfortunately it came too close to Shabbos or even on Shabbos (I went out of town earlier so missed the delivery either way). The owner helped me find someone locally who sells from her home who ubered it to me Erev Shabbos, and then I was able to return my order after Shabbos for a full refund. That is Customer Service at its finest!
