Mattify! Cosmetics Eye Shadows Review

Mattify!TM Long Lasting Eye Shadow

FREE shipping on all eye shadows

Ever notice that your eyeshadow disappears half way through the day? If
you have oily skin, this is a common problem. Without the proper base, eyeshadow does not adhere to the skin & as a result, you get streaky shadow that fades fast. Mattify! Long Lasting Eye Shadows all contain the same Kaolin Clay mixture as Mattify! Original Powder – giving them a superb oil absorbing base and staying power.

One Product – Four Different Uses!
There has never been a cosmetic item that multi-tasks like this.
Each Mattify! Long Lasting Eye Shadow can be worn as:

Eye Shadow
Eye Liner
Lip Gloss
Nail Polish

To create Eye Liner: Dip a skinny applicator into water and tap away excess. Dip applicator into Mattify! Eye Shadow, and again, tap away excess. The powder shadow will instantly liquefy, allowing you to use it as a liquid eye liner.

To create Lip Gloss:Dispense a small amount of Mattify! Eye Shadow onto a thick piece of paper. Remove lip gloss wand from container, and dab into the eye shadow. Brush onto lips until desired color opacity is achieved.

To create Nail Polish: Dispense a small amount of Mattify! Eye Shadow onto a thick piece of paper. Take the brush out of the jar of nail polish, and dab into the eye shadow. Brush onto nail until color completely covers the nail. Allow to dry and apply a clear or glittery top coat.

Application:
Several different looks can be achieved with Mattify! Eye Shadow. Use lighter colors to highlight and brighten, and darker colors for liner or to create sexy smoky eyes.

Always start by inverting the jar (with lid still attached) and tapping a few times to bring shadow through the sifter holes. Turn jar right side up & then remove lid.

Sheer Color Wash: Dab one side of the eyeshadow applicator into color. Tap applicator on side of jar, or gently blow on applicator remove excess. Gently brush applicator over desired eye area. This will obtain a sheer color wash.

Opaque coloring: In a circular motion, swirl one side of the eyeshadow applicator into color, making sure to saturate it with quite a bit of shadow. Tap or blow on applicator to remove excess. PAT the applicator onto desired area. **It’s important to use patting motions to achieve an opaque effect – otherwise you will spread the color too thin and end up with more of a sheer coloring. Depending on the desired level of opacity, you may want to go over the area a couple of times.

Smokey eye: Using the opaque coloring technique described above, apply shadow toward the outer corners of eye lids. Next, use the applicator to grab the heavy coloring on outer corners inwards toward the center of your eye. The color should be darkest at the outer most corner of lids, and begin to lighten toward the center of lids. Lightly dab a pale complimentary color to the inner corners of the eye.

I am reviewing the shades Midnight Train, Snow Bunny and Summer Storm.

From site

Midnight Train is a sultry deep blue with silvery flecks and metallic shine. Creates the perfect smoky eye & is a sexy alternative to basic black liner.

Summer Storm is a hazy medium grey with bright sheen – creates a beautiful smoky eye when used dry, or an awesome foiled metallic liner when applied wet.

Snow Bunny is a semi opaque white with shimmer that sparkles on your eye lids, like sunshine dancing across the snow. Makes a great accent color to lighten and brighten corners of eyes and under brow bones.
