I received some as free gifts from doing some of the incentives with BeautiConrol through recruiting, sales, etc. A couple I have bought for demo/personal use.
Keep in mind, all are swatched using the BeautiControl Shadow Control Crème in Natural as a primer base. This has mica in the ingredients, so there still is a little shimmer. Some prefer to just use this as an eye shadow all by itself. There is also a pink tinted one and brown…kind of like the Indelible shadows that I love!
Here’s a picture with just the primer on—it’s light and natural with a slight shimmer.
THIS IS A PICTURE HEAVY POST
Onto the eyeshadows!!
Color Intense After Midnight:
I hate photobucket—It didn’t upload the other three pictures so I will have to redo this, but here’s a general idea of the color(s).
The first color (white) on inner third and browbone
The second color (Bright blue) on middle third, as well as halfway lined on bottom lashline
Third color (navy blue matte) in outer third winged, as well as second outer half on bottom lashline
I am in love with the blue, and since it's a shimmer, I can use PIXIE EPOXY!!!
Color Intense Drama Queen:
First color (purple/mauve matte) above crease
Second color (pinkish/coral) on lid
Third color (dark purple with copper/pink sparks) crease and winged
I LOVE the dark color in this trio, it almost reminds me of EvilShades Raven’s Song from the Halloween Collection
Color Intense Mirage:
First color (golden off-white) inner corner of eyes and browbone
Second color (teal) lid
Third color (grey matte) blended with teal and winged out
This is my FAVORITE TRIO ever! I go to this one more often than the others—this reminds me of a darker-toned Aromaleigh Caribe, and the best thing is this teal looks excellent with Pixie Epoxy :)
Here's a bonus pic of me with Mirage on my right eye and After Midnight on my left (I did one eye of each color to make swatching faster/easier lol!)
Color Intense Red Carpet Ready:
First color (lighter copper) inner third of lid
Second color (darker copper) outer two-thirds of lid and winged
Third color (brown matte) used as a dry liner on upper and lower lashlines!
I can see these being a total “Cleopatra” must have!
Rainforest:
First color (light yellow shimmer) inside corners of eyes
Second color (yellowish green) lid
Third color (dark green) crease
I wish there was a little extra punch in the shimmer/drama of these colors, but these are still gorgeous.
Uptown Girl:
First color (beige) on browbone
Second color (purple) above crease, into crease
Third color (taupe) on lid
This one is hard to capture, but the taupe is a pretty color! My friend Tina described it like Aromaleigh’s Tapestry without the blue/black sparks.
The colors I have to show come in pressed trios and are $18 each. They are mineral-based eye shadows, as is all of their makeup. It also comes with a little shadow applicator, in which I prefer to use brushes anyway, so I took them out of my cases.
I do and don't like the fac tthat some of the trios have mattes. I do like the mattes because it helps create different more toned-down looks, but then I don't because then I cannot use my pixie epoxy to it's full extent--and I like SPARKLE =/
BeautiControl tends to stay away from sulfates, parabens, and all products are hypoallergenic tested, which is why I decided to become a rep!
If you are interested in buying these or anything else Iw ill be reviewing soon, please buy from me and have it directly shipped to you!
