Happy New Year! I wanted to make sure to do a post today- that way I know I have a good chance of keeping the posts up in the new year. I thought I would start the year off with a post I have been putting off.
I bought this awhile ago in my first Danessa order. I had decided it was finally time to get my hands on some multi-chromes. And now I don't know how I did my makeup without them. I am almost always adding a bit of extra to any shadow look I do.
I watched a few reviews on this before (or after) I bought it and I did see a few criticisms but I wanted to give it a go for myself.
Danessa Myricks claims:
A multi-chrome, high-impact liquid shadow that displays an ethereal shift between two shades that complement each other
The main color that shows up is pink and there is a green shift but I never detect it on my own eyes. It could just be the angles I am looking at it but it wasn't exactly what I had in mind.
When I first got it I kept trying to put it over pink shadow looks and that way it just looked so boring. I've found that I mainly like it over a bronze slightly shimmery neutral eye. It just adds a few pops of pink and gives it a little extra while still being subtle enough. I did try it over purple, blue, and all kinds of colors and that it just my favorite.
As for the product itself...I have come to realize I prefer her powder formula. It isn't as sparkly but I like the effect of the powders. They re easier to work with and layer better with other powders. I can really concentrate the powder shadow in a way I can't with this. This will move and remove shadow under it and generally just mess up my shadow so I found the only way to apply it is to spread it out and dab it on. You get a more scattered effect that way.
Overall, it's not perfect. It isn't my favorite. It is still fun to play with but I definitely like the powder shadows over these. I would probably still try other shades if/when I finally use this all up.
