Since discovering the wonders that one can achieve using Pearl Ex
Pigment Powder, I stopped buying eyeshadow all together. You see Pearl
Ex delivers the most beautiful colors in decent size plastic tubs, and
yes, they can be used as eyeshadow.
More recently though I came across a decent sized container of eye
dust from Jesse's Girl. I fell in love with their liquid crystal glosses
a few months ago, and when I came across Secret Weapon Eye Dust from
Jesse's Girl I was pretty confident that this eye dust would work just
as wonderfully as my all time favorites Pearl Ex.
Secret Weapon is pigment powder just like Pearl Ex, and they come in a
nice assortment of colors. I went with Secret Weapon because from what I
could see it was a mix of a lovely light blue, with a silver like hue. I
usually seek out pigments that give off more than 1 color, and Secret
Weapon seemed to do just that. I would not know though, how well it
worked till I got home to actually use it.
My Use:
I first applied my base color to my eyelid, which is a smokey gray. I
then add the color of my choice and blend for a 3 hue effect that always
grabs compliments.
Secret Weapon worked just as I had imagined; flawlessly. The color it
gives off it a beautiful shiny light blue. It's like a color you would
find in a fairytale, beautiful, attention grabbing yet and soft and
subtle at the same time. The silver hues show when you move around
giving this color exactly what I had wanted from it. 2 hues in 1. Like a
hypnotic little show for your eyelids.
Overall:
Jesse's Girl Eye Dust in Secret Weapon is a beautiful color, it is
light yet bright and attention grabbing. The color also lasts and does
not crease up in your eyelids. What makes it really neat besides its
double hue in color, is that if you wet the eye dust you can use it as
eyeliner, or an eyeliner topping to really play with different makeup
techniques. Like a 2 in 1. Dry as eyeshadow, and wet a thin brush to use
it as a liner.
It comes to $3.99 and you can find it mostly at drugstores like Rite Aide. It's definitely worth seeking out.
