Revlon CustomEyes Shadow Giveaway

03.25.11 | 83 Comments

*****THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED*****

There seems to be a glut of loose eye shadows on the market right now. While mineral shadows do create fantastic, highly-pigmented colors, they are kind of a pain to work with. They are messy, hard to travel with, and they get in your eyes if you’re not careful. So I was happy to test out the new Revlon CustomEyes Shadow & Liner–an old school cake shadow, just being all chill & stationary! Plus, Revlon is probably my favorite drugstore makeup brand–they offer pretty consistently high-quality products. (What is your favorite?)

The Basics: With this kit, you get four shadows and one liner. There are easy to follow instructions on how to create and customize different eye looks depending on which shadow you buy. It also comes with a dual ended applicator for shading and lining. The applicator is not terrible for smudging, but as with all drugstore applicators, you’d be better served using your own brush. I tried a few of the colors, but my favorite by far was Naturally Glamorous. All the shadows are very pigmented but also blendable. The darker shades work nicely as powder liners, wet or dry.

The lucky winner is #48! Congrats Liza!!

I never could get the hang of loose powder shadows. Seems like most of it went everywhere but on the eyelid. Love the colors of the one you featured.
