I was at Walgreens picking up some toiletries the other day when I spotted this little guy:
How cute and convenient is this? A chubby little shadow pencil that you can keep in your bag to create evening eyes in just seconds! It also doubles as shadow AND liner!
I wanted to try it out first before buying all the colors, so I chose the one I thought was prettiest, a color called Distressed. It's a gorgeous shade of midnight blue with a satiny shimmer finish. I just went ahead and drew a fat wing on my upper eyelid as well as lining my bottom lash line.
The formula is ultra-creamy and pigmented and glides on like a dream. I barely had to use any pressure while I was using it. I could have finished here, but since it was supposed to be about 90 degrees on campus today, I decided to set it with matching-colored shadow as a precaution to prevent any melting or smudging. Luckily, Wet N Wild's Blue Had Me At Hello palette had the perfect shade:
I just layered it over the Idol Eyes pencil and voila! One minute makeup, you just gotta love it! :D
I know, it's a little dramatic for 9am class, but I just couldn't wait to use it! Made me feel pretty all day. The color did fade ever so slightly, but after 8 hours in extreme heat I wouldn't have expected any eye product to perform any better. I can't wait to get the rest of the colors!
Wow pretty! I wouldn't dare to try wearing that color though, it's pretty intense! I've always been scared to go out of the house such dramatic colors on. :/ I'll have to work up the courage someday!
ReplyDeleteNice look though! Love the deep blue!
Thank you! Yeah, I felt a little ostentatious wearing this to class, it was still fun though! Maybe you could pull it off for a fun evening look or even Halloween! :D
