I have been interested in this product
for a while now and I always held off buying one as I already own Stila and
HUDA BEAUTY versions and I don’t often use them. I finally decided to order one
in a beautiful green shade. It is the one that appealed to me the most and
looking at the swatches online, it seems like the most opaque one. I don’t have
a colour like it in my Stila or HUDA BEAUTY ones.
Malachite - emerald green shimmer
This liquid eyeshadow is mean’t to be
long lasting, creamy and leave you with an ultra-metallic finish that doesn’t
smudge, fade or crease. You can wear it alone or over other products and it can
be used on your eyes, lips and cheeks. It also comes in a variety of glitter
and metallic shades and it is cruelty-free and vegan. You can purchase them for
£6.00 (4.5ml) each from BeautyBay.com.
My First Impressions
It has a paddle brush stick applicator
just like the Stila and HUDA BEAUTY versions. The formula is thinner in consistency
than the Stila ones. It is very easy to apply and it is very metallic and
reflective. You need to do a couple of coats to get a fully opaque look. The
colour Malachite is gorgeous and it
has some micro sequins in it. It’s strange because there are not a lot of them
and you don’t get them every time you dip in, you may only get one per eye. I
don’t mind this as I wasn’t expecting there to be little sequins anyway. You
need to wait for it to dry on your eye before you move. I have hooded eyes, so
when I fully opened my eyes before the product had fully dried it transferred to
my crease and just above my crease. It is easy to layer and I didn’t notice any
cracking or congealing. I am yet to wear it for a long period of time, so I can’t
really comment on the longevity, fading or creasing. I did try rubbing my eyes
and it didn’t really smudge, but I did end up with glitter on my fingers. I
only tried it on my eyes. It is not the sort of colour I would want on my lips
or cheeks! It was extremely easy to remove, just one swipe with a warm wet flannel
and it was gone. So far, I am impressed with this product and I would look at
ordering more shades. They are a hell of a lot cheaper than the Stila or HUDA
BEAUTY versions!
