-
Should I try Shimarz! if I have sensitive skin?
If you know that you have very sensitive skin, I recommend that before you try Shimarz products, take the list of our ingredients to your doctor and make sure you’re not allergic to any of them.
Then if you decide to give our products a go, test them first! Apply a little to your wrist or behind your knee before putting any on your face to make sure you don’t have a reaction.
To view product ingredients simply by clicking on any products page on shimarz.com and scroll down.

Which Shimarz Product should I try first?
Go for what attracts you the most.
We really recommend our Liquid Foundation and Concealer first. Hundreds of our customers love the Liquid Foundation. In fact they love all our products!

What is the cost of shipping, and why?
Flat rate shipping is $6.00 for anywhere inside the continental United States and is available for any shipment under 1lb. This flat rate shipping generally takes between 8-10 business days.
For faster shipping of shipments weighing under 1lb, we also offer priority shipping for $10.00, which generally takes between 3-5 business days.
For even faster shipping of shipments weighing under 1lb, we also offer priority shipping for $17.00, which generally takes between 1-2 business days.
Many customers ask why we charge these amounts, and our answer is simple: We charge exactly what is charged to us. We never add any additional fees for shipping.
We use a shipping company that guarantees on time delivery and allows you to track both shipment options. We chose this company for their fantastic service, because how they treat our customers matters to us.
We would love to offer shipping at a lower cost, and we are always looking for options to provide the best possible delivery service. As Shimarz grows and we begin to get discounted rates from our shipping service, we will always pass this savings onto you. It’s our promise to you.

Are our products tested for Lead?
All minerals (Titanium Dioxide, Iron Oxides, Zinc Oxide and Mica) used in Shimarz cosmetic products are completely tested for Cadmium, Antimony, Arsenic, Lead and Mercury. Thus, customers can rest confident that our products do not contain heavy metals in any detectable amounts.
What does "[+/- May Contain]: Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891) Zinc Oxide (CI 77947), Iron Oxides (CI 77491, 77492, 77499" mean in your ingredient labels?
Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891) Zinc Oxide (CI 77947) and Iron Oxides (CI77491, 77492, 77499) are colorants that are also providing sun protection.
Some natural lines use fruit based pigments for color, however our feeling (as well as many other natural lines), is that this does not offer a rich enough pigment for our shades. Our pigments are minerals. Minerals are found in nature, naturally occurring from earth and purified in a lab before use.
Our products contain between 1 - 9% depending on the shade.
All the above minerals are natural.
