Mineral makeup used to be dull: I mean "why even bother putting it on". For a split second I got overwhelmed by main stream brands and found myself in indie town. Guess what? There is a new sheriff in town: Concrete Minerals.
Indie brands have amazing products in every category; In fact, they are the trendsetters. This brand has been in the market quite sometime now and for all the good reasons. Their Electric Eye Primer is amazing and I don't want to shut up about it. It works like a dream with all sorts of eye shadows and it is going to have it's dedicated video pretty soon. In summary, you have to have it if you use any type of shimmer or metallic eye shadows. Natasha Denona should sell this products together with hers. I mean this has to be a prerequisite to buy one of her products. I told you I do not shut up about it.
Now to the eye shadows. I first saw the application of these by BIOHAZARDOUS BEAUTY
She is an amazing youtuber and have a closet full of indie eye shadows. She is the eye model for this brand and has a discount code TORI20
I loved her looks with these eye shadows and wanted to try right away.
Well, they are different for me. Mineral makeup is a whole new concept to me. The first time I used these eye shadow, I was almost disappointed. However, they grow on me the very first time I wear them. These eyeshadows look incredible in broad day light. They are not obnoxiously metallic but they show their true potential when mixed with the oils on your skin. During application, you may not think highly of them but check your makeup in 15 min, in an hour or 2 and they will put a smile on your face. So, the wear of makeup is very different with mineral eye shadows. The more you carry them, the better they get. Also, it does not feel like you are wearing makeup. They are weightless. I know it is funny to say this. How much an eye shadow can weigh. But you will really feel it if you are using very emollient metallic shades.
I am still mesmerized by my Inglot AMC pigments but they sit in a drawer while I use my Concrete Mineral eyeshadows daily. I really want to try their matte formulation. It is going to happen soon. I am still experimenting with these eyeshadows and more looks will follow.
Yay!!!!
