Newsflash!! You want the new Max Factor Excess Shimmer Eye Shadows!

I attended a media day recently where I was introduced to these beauties and my heart skipped a beat when I saw them. I have to get my hands on (at least) Bronze and Copper Light. I swatched them at the launch and they are beautiful.

Almost 100 years after Mr. Max Factor first started selling eye shadow in
1916 – Max Factor continues to innovate with the launch of NEW gel-based
Excess Shimmer Eye Shadows.

Available in 6 shades, these super-blendable shimmery shadows are designed for women who want to achieve on-trend metallic eye looks, but have difficulty creating them using traditional pressed powder eye shadows which fail to build up colour. New Excess Shimmer Eye Shadows makes it ultra-easy, thanks to their smart 3D silicone gel formula which holds its high-impact metallic colour pigments in place for up to 12 hours, for intense luminosity and a smooth colour finish.

These pots of gorgeousness are available at selected Clicks stores and retail for R130. Hurry… before I beat you to it ;)

Happy shopping.

Revlon PhotoReady Eye Art – Review and Swatches

Giddy. That’s what I felt when I opened a parcel containing 3 must-haves from the new Revlon PhotoReady Eye Art Lid + Line + Lash range.

‘Dabble in makeup artistry with the NEW Revlon PhotoReady Eye Art Lid + Line + Lash – dual-ended liquid shadows that sparkle and shine for an eye look that’s all your own. You control the look you want, and how you want to wear it. Go bold, go glam, go bling – it’s all in your hands.’

These new dual sided eye shadow wands have a cream shadow on the one end and a glitter shadow on the other. They come in an array of bright and intense colours, but it was the more neutral toned ones that grabbed my attention.

My heart really almost skipped a beat when I saw pics of Topaz Twinkle on the web.

The glitter shadows are super fun to play with, but the quality of the cream shadows are superb and more than enough reason to pop these in your basket. The cream shadows are easy to apply, stay put the whole day, crease minimally and the shades are beautifully vibrant. I can go on and on, but I think the swatches speak for themselves.

All three of the below shades are gorgeous, but Topaz Twinkle is utterly beautiful and, trust me, if you are into taupes, you must have it.
