My experience with Essence Eyeshadow Blockbuster
Packaging –
This eye shadow comes in a plastic packaging, without a box. The shadow is sealed by a plastic covering with ensures the quality of the product you receive. Although the packaging doesn’t look very sturdy, after using it a few times, I find that it is quite decent. It is tight and will not open in your makeup bag if you carry it with you.
Colour –
If your are of Light to Medium skin tone, this eye shadow will perfectly match your concealer. So the color make it a perfect shade for setting your eye base. It can also be used on the lid as well as be used for blending deeper brown shades.
Pigmentation –
The pigmentation of this eye shadow is average. It gives a completely matte look, which is great.
Application –
This eyeshadow can be applied with a brush or with a finger. You can use whichever you are comfortable with. The finished look is the same in both the cases.
Experience –
I mostly use this eye shadow as a setting powder for my eye base but it can definitely be used as a lid color. I like the matte finish and how easily my eyeshadow blends after I apply this eyeshadow.
