I Do The Details

HELLO my dear friends,

SO glad you are spending your valuable time today reading my latest FEATURED FRIDAY post, Edition #17.  It is WELL worth it, trust me darling! Because today, I am honored to announce my new February GIVEAWAY sponsor- Orglamix!! What is this wonderful company you might be asking??- They are an artisan crafted 100% pure mineral makeup company.

Basically this makeup is formulated WITHOUT: Nano Particles, Bismuth Oxychloride, Synthetic Dyes, Parabens, Synthetic Fragrances, Petrochemicals, Parabens. AND Orglamix is a proud member of PETA! How great is that?

I am incredibly picky about my eyeshadow selections and I/we SHOULD be ladies! It MUST last hours, show no greasy creases and at ALL times, especially on your wedding day, be flawless in photos. If a shadow fails even just one of the criteria above- TOSS IT NOW. You deserve more than a sucky shadow.

What fabulous shade from Orglamix did I have the privilege to review this week?? WELL…

Frosting Taupe- from the Here Comes The Bride Collection (of course!)

The Frosting Taupe eyeshadow even arrived in this sweet little black satin case with a special note attached- it already stole my heart and made me feel extra special. What lady doesn’t adore that feeling? Upon first glance, I was already excited to see the subtle and innocent shimmer gleaming from inside the case. All Orglamix products are packaged in clear jars with a sifter and sold by weight, not volume, so you get more product. SCORE!

Another perk is the ♥ Orglamix 100% Guarantee- which basically guarantees you’ll LOVE this company and their products. If you’re not satisfied with the color, the packaging, the whatever, simply return the item within 14 days of your purchase and they will give you a full refund. Doesn’t that just make you feel good to know that instead of spending money and not falling head over heels in love with it- it’s OK…you can choose something else or get your money back. Now that’s a solid company policy.

So now back to my personal shadow experience/review of Orglamix.. I applied Frosting Taupe at 7:30AM prior to my work day. I have to tell you that I even enjoyed the applying experience. When you dab your brush into the container it doesn’t fly all over, it really sticks nicely onto the brush. As I rubbed the brush and shadow over my eye lid, it went on evenly and with instant shimmer..but just a touch- not to bling bling at all. And it wasn’t heavy, just enough went on.

It lasted ALL day, still shining and the tone did not change throughout my day. Sometimes I put on a light green shadow and by days end, once the stale office air sets in..the then once light green is olive due to eye lid grease! boo. This eyeshadow did not change colors one bit. Side tip, to avoid that greasy crease you can also dab a bit of foundation powder upon you lid before applying the shadow..that helps alot.

In conclusion, I love this color, eyeshadow and give it 2 THUMBS UP! I will definitely be purchasing some new and wonderful eyeshadow from Orglamix for sure! My trial was a success and I know you’ll love this makeup too!!
