Rare minerals replacement - shopping for someone else -SOLVED
[ Edited ]

I sent a gift of travel sized products to a relative around Christmas last year.  One of the items I believe was a Rare Minerals Moisturizer that they loved.  Apparently it was her favorite of the gifts and was wondering where to buy more of it.  Tried to find a bigger size but it appears to not be on the site or anywhere besides random sites.  I think I saw a few of them still leftover at my local sephora.

 

So far from what I've found, it appears that the line got reformulated.  How much of it got changed?

 

Skimming through the reviews, not too many customers seem to match anyone around their mid 50s and up + dry skin (sensitive perhaps?  I know eye shadow bothers her eyes).  Curious if there is anyone here that would match that demographic or has a relative or friend that would know anything about either formulation.  

 

Or are there any former Rare Minerals users who have moved onto something else?  

 

Thanks in advance.

Edit:

Talked with a SA today and besides the eye cream, supposedly the products have not been reformulated.  Just the name and packaging. 

 

If anyone thinks this is false, go ahead and reply.

To find out for sure, you could always contact BE directly to ask if the products themselves have been reformulated at all. From what I read, I understood that it was only the packaging, not the product.

As put above (edited), I talked to a BE rep last week. She said only the eye cream got reformulated. Sending her all the information on how to buy the product if she still likes it. (:

Sorry -- when you said SA, I assumed that you meant Sephora associate. While many sales associates have a vast knowledge of their products, they may not know in great detail what was reformulated as opposed to just having been repackaged, which is why I suggested contacting BE directly. If you already spoke with a BE rep, then disregard :smileyhappy:

No worries. Apologies if the tone in the last comment appeared to be harsh. (:

No not at all!! I was just clarifying -- because (as I'm sure you know!) talking to a store rep and directly to the brand sometimes yields entirely different answers :smileyhappy:
