This is
supposed to be a review post only, but decided to add a little more twist to
it. Given that the product I am featuring is an eyeshadow, an EOTD will show a
much better judgment from you. If I am correct, this is my very first eotd
post. I do love playing with my eyeshadows, but didn’t think of posting an EOTD
until now! Just what am I doing during those playful days?
Firstly, I
will introduce you to the star eyeshadow that I used for this EOTD, Nyx Ultra Peal
Mania Eyeshadow in Walnut. This was included in the few things that I got from Dr. Poison
Ivy’s beauty blog when we have made a makeup swap before. Can you believe that
after all these months, I just opened this one? Yeah, the thing is, I’ve
forgotten that I do have this eyeshadow. And FYI, it was stocked in my products-that-are-not-yet-photographed
box. So, you really can’t blame me. LOL
Nyx Ultra Pearl Mania is an eyshadow in loose-powder type. It has a striking
shimmering bronze color with a really great color payoff. And with a great color
payoff I mean it is a much Pigmented (yes, Pigmented with a capital P) eyeshadow!
You can use it alone or with other shades and it will still look good. A
perfect brown bronze shade to use for smoky eye makeup and compliments all skin
tone.
The texture
is really smooth and very easy to apply. It is recommended to use it wet for
lesser fall out. Also, the staying power is very impressive; it stays on all
day and is water resistant! The packaging, on the other hand is the letdown.
Imagine how you’ll use this eyeshadow without being messy if it is packed in a
very ridiculous tiny plastic bottle? Huh?!? Anyway, we can always transfer it
in a much better container. Nonetheless, this is cheap and all. J
Now, lets move on to my simple yet glamorous eotd~
There~ I
created a single color smoky eyeshadow look using Nyx Ultra Pearl Mania in
Walnut. See how dramatic it looks? Even I, myself, was shocked with the outcome
of this elated.
I decided to
do a winged eyeshadow and eyeliner for this eotd. At first, I only lined my upper
lid, but after taking some pictures I noticed that there is something missing and
viola~ my lower eye water line need some eyeliner too!
This eotd is
very easy! Grab your most pigmented brown eyeshadow, black eyeliner, false
eyelashes, and mascara, then and do the look yourself.
ARE YOU INTO SMOKY EYE MAKEUP TOO?
