I had always wanted to be Sensual Feminine and Seductive
Creating black smokey eye look is one of the essential
BUT
I can never pass through the messy-powder drops all over the face look
Powder shadow is a wee that bit messy with them falling and dirtying the look
Cream shadow can sometimes be too rich and difficult to blend
I have oily eye lids and color do not sit although I have prep with eye primer
Oh Well

Am I to bear with the messy dirty smokey eye look?
Especially when time is not on my side?
I was invited to Make Up For Ever Black Tango Fall Collection 2012
And
I am not only Impressed but totally Sold
Make Up For Ever Black Tango Palette
It is a Limited Edition Aqua Cream Palette
Consisting of FOUR new Aqua Cream shades
A harmony of Blacks with Red, Green, Blue and Ivory
The subtle and intense reflections are powerful potions of Seduction
The colors are rich and intense, highly pigmented
They are creamy but not oily
They are easily spread with fingers and even much easier with the attached brush
I do not even need to set them with powder colors at all
Not only the color stays all day, in the sun with the sweat
And even under water, in the pool
I have tried 2 looks using the Black Tango Palette
Closed Eye
Open Eyes
After - Before
Can you see how the eyes are enlarged with the contouring and falsies
Only a dab of color (Green + Blue) is blended at the corner of the eyes to give it some depth and lift
You can blend the color till the outer corner of the iris, about 1/3 of the length of your eyelid
I use Ivory under the brow bone and the inner corner, 2/3 of the eyelid for some contrast
The brush in the palette makes it much easier to blend with the firm nylon fibre bristles
Another new product from the Black Tango Collection
would be the Aqua Cream Matt Black
which is my Super Love
It has the same formula as the Aqua Cream range
But
offers a unique difference with a Matt finishing
It is also waterproof with impeccable hold
I pick up the color with my liner brush and draw an eyeliner
Remember that my eyelid is disgustingly oily
and
NO eyeliner could have stay put throughout the day without transfering colors
BUT
This little pot is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G
The liner stays put and does not run nor smudge
This is my Holy Grail
I tried another Intense look with Aqua Cream Matt Black
Eye Closed
Eye Open
After - Before
You can see that the color stays obediently at the correct place,
Does Not run, Does Not smudge, Does Not transfer
AND
the color Does Not Crease!!!
Yes, the color is Matt
And
You might think that the color will crease and difficult to blend or spread
BUT
You are awfully wrong
Because of the same formula as Aqua Cream Range
Aqua Cream Matt Black is easy to blend
As easy as Aqua Cream Range
The color is Intense, Rich and Super pigmented
Aqua Cream Matt Black is one which you cannot afford to miss
It can be used BOTH as an Eyeliner or Smokey Eye Look

Ok, the packaging is super pretty..but the product itself is BLAH...it may be because of the quality of the pictures but the colors are MUDDY..everything is too dark.
ReplyDeleteIMHO You can get the same or even BETTER color payoff (where we can see the diff. among dark blue, dark green and black) at a much cheaper price.
