Lumiere Cosmetics Review and Tutorial

Jul27

Hi Guys & Dolls! So  a few weeks ago, Lumiere Cosmetics asked me if I would be interested in trying their eyeshadow, and after checking out their really pro looking site, I was excited to try them out. When I got my package, I was so surprised it knocked my socks off! Just have a look for yourself! They sell their 2gram loose mineral shadows for $8 and their 3gram Pressed shadows for $9. The have pretty good swatches of all of their shadows on their website, which REALLY helps when buying online. The Customer service is GREAT, and overall, I’m quite impressed with this company.  GO LUMIERE! More Pictures and Swatches after the jump

Edit: I just found out that they sell 1 Gram jars for $5, and they sell 5 1/4 sample baggies for a penny! One more thing I though of, is these are more like a “grown up” mineral eyeshaodw. they have MUCH better “cling” than other mineral e/s I’ve used,  and they are less-sparkly, and the colors are too-loud. (ok, some are). just wanted to add that.

Hey Guys and Dolls! So, I recently received a few Paint FX cosmetics eye shadows to review and I wanted to share them with you.  They sell their E/S in different sizes, which is GREAT if you want to try a color. Their Sample baggies are only .85 cents!! These are all swatched over their Stickum Primer which I recommend for brightening up Mineral/loose eyeshadows. In the following looks I only used the Stickum Primer as a base. You can check out Paint FX Here
