This is a master post for Aromaleigh - Everyday Minerals color comparisons.
(In chart above, Everyday Minerals is on left, Aromaleigh on right).
Everyday Minerals closed down a few months ago, leaving their customers looking for options. I see some obvious parallels between the two brands in that we both specialized in paler skin tones, and offered different formulas based on skin type.

Here's a comparison of the two products from Skinsort.com:
May 2026 Graphic Swatch recommendations can be found below. Everyday Minerals swatches are on left, they are official brand images whenever possible, with Aromaleigh potentials on the right. All recommendations are "ballpark", meaning they are a starting place for you to try some affordable sample baggies of Aromaleigh, to find your match. I don't have the EM product in my physical possession, so all of these matches are done on the computer screen, comparing the two product shade ranges.
I am in the midst of a shade expansion, into the deeper end of my range. The level 4 deep range will be expanded, and there will be a level 3.5 introduced, as well as level 5 options.
EM's 0-3 Rosy shades are all very pale in appearance from these swatches. Aromaleigh offers a wider range of cool to pink shades with linen (beige) and neutral undertones. I've shown my level 1 Ivory and level 2 Light options. Remember, all Aromaleigh loose powder products are available in affordable sample baggies so that you can try before you invest in full sizes.
EM's 4-7 Rosy shades are paler than I expected, given how pale levels 0-3 already are. I'm still seeing matches to these in my Level 2 Light range. I also see some potential matches in my Level 3 Medium. As of May 2026, I'm currently in the midst of a major shade expansion which will include Levels 3.5, 4 and 5 - all deeper options than what is shown here, so I'm sure I'll ultimately have a good match for 7C Rosy Bronze.
EM's Neutral range in 0-3 has some good potential matches for Aromaleigh shades in 00, Level 1 Neutral, Warm Linen and Yellow Linen. EM 2N appears a good match to Aromaleigh 2N. and EM 3N appears a good potential match to Aromaleigh 2 Neutral Beige, 2 Neutral Cool and 2 Cool Linen.
EM's Neutral range in 4-7N has some good potential matches for Aromaleigh shades in the Light Neutrals and Medium Neutrals. At this time, I don't have a potential match for EM 7N Bronze Neutral, but hope to ultimately have one when my 2026 shade expansion is complete!
EM's 0W-3W golden (warm) tones all appear to run quite pale. I've been able to recommend a range of my warm, warm/linen, warm olive, neutral olive, and neutral warm shades in Level 2 Light and Level 3 Medium. Two of my neutrals also look like they could be potential matches to Golden Light 2W, as this EM shade's swatches look to have some peach tones in them.
EM's Golden (Warm) range in levels 4-7 has been a bit more challenging to visually match. Part of that is because while these shades are described as Golden, they have a lot more peach tones in them than the same Golden rage does in the paler levels. 4W Golden Medium, for example- looks most similar to my Cool Linen, Neutral Beige and Neutral Cool. It doesn't match my warm or yellow (olive) tones at all. 5W Golden Tan seems a good match for 3NW, 3WL or 3NO, but when I get to levels 6W and 7W, these EM shades again have a lot of peach tones in them and at this time, I can't offer a match. Ultimately, I hope to be able to when my 2026 shade expansion is completed.
Ordering samples is easy via the top bar menu on desktop, or side bar menu on mobile. Go to MINERAL MAKEUP > Mineral Foundation > Scroll down and you will see my 3 foundation formulas shown in rows, with 4 different sizes.
On the MINERAL FOUNDATION page, you will see I have denoted the sample ordering option in red. Click on the formula you'd like to order samples of.
Choose the shades you'd like to sample, and add them to your cart individually.
Below is the 2024 chart I created. I'm leaving this up even though above this you'll find graphic color swatch charts created in May of 2026.
Some of the suggestions may be combinations of two Aromaleigh shades. Mixing and matching isn't uncommon with loose powder minerals. Please note that the pink (P) and pink/linen (PL) shades ranges are available only in my GOSSAMER formula. This is my most popular formula. Should a pronounced need for the P and PL shades be met, I will consider adding them to the Dewdrop formula.
Note: There are very few comparables with Aromaleigh's Y and Y/L series, which are yellow and olive tones. These were created specifically for Asian and Mediterranean skin undertones.
In the chart below, first find your LEVEL (how light to dark your skin is), then scroll down further to view the TONES (how warm, cool, pink, beige, etc your skin is). Combine those two together to get a general idea of some Aromaleigh shades to try

3PL/3N
By EM's description of "Golden Medium"- this would be an Aromaleigh 3W, 3WL or 3N. Their photo just doesn't match the description they give the shade. So I am unsure of the accuracy of this comparable.
|
| 4C - Rosy Medium (Medium) |
This is a light, cool tone with some beige undertones. Very similar to their 3C Rosy Beige, so suggestions will be similar.

this shade is darker and more saturated than my shade range. You might be able to use Aromaleigh 4N or 4WL and add a contour powder such as Bacchic Revelry to it. Or, a matte Saga eyeshadow such as Beyla, Frigg or Verdandi.

| 6W - Golden Almond (Tan) | This seems closest to Aromaleigh 4N or 4WL. |
