Maybelline - Colour Tattoo Metal - 24hr Eyeshadow - Barely Branded



This is a light champagne coloured, metallic, cream eye shadow.

Over the Chella highligher pencil as a base.

I probably should have gone for a darker shade, but it does give a kind of doll-like look.

It is a bit prone to creasing, especially if a base isn't used.

Price: 4/5 ($11.95 for 4g)
Scent: 2.5/5 (no real scent)
Effectiveness: 3.5/5

Red Earth - Metallic Eye Shadow - Silver


This is a silver eye shadow that I don't have a lot of confidence in, it looks very dry.

Over the Eye of Horus eye liner in 'Selenite'

Whelp, it is actually amazing!
Good colour payoff, minimal fall out, and it is easy to just apply with a dry brush.

Price: 1/5 (~$20 for 1.5g, but no longer sold)
Scent: 2.5/5 (no scent)
Effectiveness: 5/5

Effectiveness: 3/5

Austrais - Metallix Cream Eyeshadow - Guns and Rose Petals


Liquid metal eyeshadows are so hot right now, and this gives the desired effect!


It claims to be a rose gold, but is really more of a gold.
It looks like a foil on the skin, which is lovely.


However, it does crease a lot on me and shifts, but if you have less oily skin than me then it may sit still for you.
Cream eyeshadows are not my friends

Also, it is best to apply it with a finger. I couldn't pick any of the product with a (Ecotools) brush.

Price: 3/5 ($9.49 for one)
Scent: 2.5/5 (no scent)
Effectiveness: 4/5
