The Body Shop Color Crush Eyeshadows Brownie & Clyde, Moonlight Kiss Review, Swatches

I had mentioned about my The Body Shop Haul HERE..I am reviewing those two color crush eye shadows today.What the Company claims: An intensely pigmented, eye-shadow with a silky-soft texture. It’s easy to blend and great for building layers of colour. Dermatalogically and Ophthalmologically tested. Suitable for contact lens wearers.

Intense colour
Matte finish
Silky-soft texture
Available in 11 shades.
Use wet or dry

Shades Available: Berry Cheeky, Berry Cute, Blackcurrent Affair, Blue Over You, Moonlight Kiss, Brownie & Clyde, Sugar Glaze, Sand by Me, Chat-Up-Lime, Caramel Flirt, Boyfriend Jeans

MRP: Rs.695/- for 1.5g

This comes in a small single pan plastic packaging..but its quite sturdy and clicks shut…the eyeshadow pan can always be depotted if you wish to..

225 Brownie & Clyde is a pearl finish taupe brown..a perfect everyday neutral shade..you can wear to work..and add some smokiness or smudge a kohl beneath for turning it to a night look..

015 Moonlight Kiss is a perfect matte black..super duper pigmented..and stays for hours..no fall outs, no creasing..

Why a perfect matte black eye shadow is an absolute necessity in your makeup kit ?

  • For black smokey eyes ofcourse
  • For any smokey eyes..to intensify the smokiness in the outer corners.
  • To be used as a liner…with a slanted angular brush
  • To set your kohl and make it stay all day..just use a cotton bud and dip into your matte black eyeshadow and layer the kohl with it..this would absorb the moisture and kohl stays longer.
  • For easy soft smokey eyes, just smudge some kohl and a matte black eyeshadow lightly.

These are silky smooth in texture and super duper pigmented..especially the Moonlight Kiss..do not crease and stay put whole day !

Here are the swatches..

Pros:

1. Super smooth texture.

2. Amazing pigmentation.
3. Does not crease or fade.
4. Stays put whole day.
5. Available in 11 shades.
6. Can be used both wet and dry..and more rich when used wet.

Cons:

1. A little expensive but if I compare them to MAC..these are quite affordable.

Overall I love these..both these shades are my absolute favorites..Sugar Glaze and Caramel Flirt are pretty too..I love taupes so chose Brownie & Clyde..a good everyday neutral and a rich matte black eyeshadow every girl should have and I found my black ! Highly recommend these..Moonlight Kiss is much better in terms of texture and pigmentation compared to MAC Carbon eyeshadow..and both are 1.5g.

Matte Me RRP £4.99 or $6.99 each

Today I am reviewing the shades 438 Kiss & Tell and 439 Cranberry Crush in Gloss Me and 433 Rioja Red in Matte Me

Comes in a regular square transparent gloss packaging with a black cap..has a doe foot applicator.

Kiss & Tell is bright orangey blue toned red with silver bluish shimmer and Cranberry Crush is a sheerer watermelon pink with silver shimmer again.

Rioja Red is a bright blue toned true red.

Gloss Me are loaded with shimmer and sticky in formula..though they stay well and are good in pigmentation..I would say these are like any other normal glosses..nothing too different..

On the other hand, Matte Me are amazing..completely matte but yet non drying, full opaque coverage..and stays well..but ya they do flake a little with eating and drinking and needs to be reapplied…and one has to apply neatly with a brush and work before it sets which is about in a few minutes..


Swatches..my mehendi is peeping in :p

T-B: Rioja Red, Kiss & Tell, Cranberry Crush

Here is it on me..

L-R: Kiss & Tell, Cranberry Crush, Rioja Red

I made the mistake of not using a lip brush for Matte Me..and sorry for the uneven application..I would suggest using a lip brush for Matte Me for a neat, even and proper application..it takes some time to set..but once set is completely matte.

Overall I loved the Matte Me..and found the Gloss Me pretty ok..good in pigmentation and staying power..I would have preferred less stickiness and shimmer though..
