Eye Shimmer in Violet and Emerald Available at The Body Shop
My first purchase from the Body Shop is their Mango Body Butter cream. Then I was introduced to the Body Shop Tea Tree oil, their pocket size mini brush set....and now..their e/s! I wouldn't think I would ever buy their e/s. Don't get me wrong, I know they have really good cosmetic lines but I just haven't heard much about their eye shadows.
They went on sale for last month and I can't help but take a look on where I can spend my moolah to! Cause I have a lot of cash LOL <--- guys, you do know that it's a joke right? Please believe me, it's a JOKE! lol Anyways, at first, I was looking through the neutrals and the regular colors. But something caught my eye, it's called the EYE SHIMMER. I checked on the tester, swabbed it once with my fingers and put it on my lids. VOILA! I was expecting my hubby to laugh, I was more surprised when he said "uhhmm..it's different, but it's very pretty!" WHOAH?!? SO I had to check my reflection and I was surprised coz I'm loving it!
I bought 2 shades right away, the super shimmery pink and super shimmery green. But since they are quite new, they are only on for 10%. While the rest are 20-30% off!

The Body Shop Says ---
Highly pearlescent shimmering powders, with a soft, smooth texture, that provides strong coverage. Light diffusing particles and pearl pigments add sparkle while helping to disguise fine lines on the eyelids. Perfect for any occasion, day or night.

No, as you don't use much of this tiny pot so this will last a long time..until expiration! lol
**note: applied no base, just the Body Shop e/s swiped 2x each eye
If you want a very dramatic shimmery look, this is the BEST
I have tried. But if you want subtle shimmer, you won't like this much!

Pros
- cute, tiny packaging
- very pigmented
- perfect to be used alone
- easy to apply with fingers, without much effort needed
- delivers the "Impact" especially the emerald!
Cons
- pricey
- it creases! with or without UDPP
- the sparkle could get into your eyes (believe me, it got in mine in the middle of the day LOL)
- if used all over the lid, your eyes will look puffy and people will believe there's Alien existing
Askmewhats Tips ---
- IMO (in my opinion) I would use the Body Shop eye shimmers with my fingers, I tried using a brush and it doesn't look as good at swiping the color over your lids with your pinkie!
- You can have your regular smokey look, and swab on once or twice on the lower lids (only) , you will create a very dramatic effect!
- Use this alone with a black kohl pencil, vavavoom!
