Press Sample



This review is on the Milani Cosmetics Baked Eyeshadow in the shades 616 Must Have Fuchsia, 617 Copper Excess, and 618 Green Fortune I received these a while back so it was long over due for a review!

As a side note the first set of pictures were taken with my old camera because I had already swatched them before I received my new camera.

Anyway onto the photos!

Description

Marble and metallic – that’s what we’re serving up in our shadow bakery today! Crafted on Italian terracotta tiles, our super-luxe, silky-smooth eye-enhancers offer endless ways to love your lids. While the marble finish is all about complementary colors swirled gorgeously together, the metallic finish is offered in solo high-shine hues. Wear them as shadow or liner, and, for even more versatility, in two different ways: Dry, for a sheer wash of luminous color, or wet, for more “pop” and intensity.

My Rating:  9 out of 10 Feathers

Cost:  $7.99 for 0.05 oz

Availability:  www.milanicosmetics.com

Formula:  Marbled and metallic finish.

The Packaging:  Compact style with curved dual ended brush/sponge applicator.

My Final Thoughts:  These are really great shadows for the price point, all of them are very beautiful shades even my Green Fortune was despite not having as much green as some of the other swatches I've seen. I didn't have a ton of luck using these wet but that could be because of the way I was trying to apply it or even the brush I was trying to use. I opted to apply mine over the Milani eyeshadow primer and Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy which is the normal way I apply my shimmer and metallic shadows.

I never use the applicators in my shadows as I find most are very scratchy and I'm not really fond of the sponge tip ones either.

616 Must Have Fuchsia I found this shade faded a tiny bit faster than the other two shades. It was very pigmented though and the smoothness of application makes it a really nice shade over all.

617 Copper Excess I really love this one, it's a really nice almost pinky copper shade and it kind of reminds me of MAC's Melon Pigment.

618 Green Fortune It's described as a shimmering golden green, mine seemed to not have as much green to it, I have seen swatches on other sites though that lean more towards green. Even still it's a beautiful shadow with definite shimmer and sparkle.
 
Would I purchase again?  Yes! These are really smooth and pigmented shadows especially for the price point. It's a plus that you can use them dry for a softer look or wet for a more bold color payoff.





Do you own any of these? What's your favorite shade?
