Eye shadow is a cosmetic that is applied on the eyelids and under the eyebrows. It is commonly used to make the wearer's eyes stand out or look more attractive. Eye shadow adds depth and dimension to one's eyes, complements the eye color, or simply draws attention to the eyes.
Eye shadow comes in many different colors and textures. All Signature Minerals eye shadows contain mica, which is a shiny silicate mineral with a layered structure, found as minute scales in granite and other rocks, or as crystals.
Different types of mica create different finishes. Matte is simply matte finish. Pearl and shimmer have a pearlized or shimmery appearance. Metallics look very sheen but not shimmery - like a metal finish.
Signature
mineral eye colors are crafted from all natural minerals, are non-comedogenic
and have an SPF of around 15. With Signature mineral makeup, it only
takes the tiniest amount of eye color to get beautiful results that last
all day.
Signature eye makeup can be applied wet or dry to achieve the look you
want. Many of the darker eye colors also make fantastic eye liners. Apply
them dry for a more subtle, natural look or apply them wet for a more
dramatic hard line!
Any of these colors (except greens and blues) make beautiful lip colors.
Just apply with Clear Lip Butter (or lip gloss, Chapstick, etc) OR apply
with your favorite lipstick to create a brand new shade.
