FACE ATELIER EYE SHIMMER POTS!!!!

Sat, 02/18/2006 - 8:03pm
  • Eyes


I know that I need to have drop-dead, fantastic eye make-up. It's true. Everyone whose anyone is sporting the heavy eye-shadow and muted lip mouth. This appears to be a trend that's not going away anytime soon. What's going to happen to us all in a decade? Is it going to be a flashback to when we all thought socks pulled over our jeans were so great? Are we going to say "Oh God. You know it's 2006 with that eye make-up"? My intuition says a big "yup". Since we are all on the rollercoaster we may as well all go for the ride! Open up those pots and lather the color on! Party like it's 2006! Here's what Face's Shimmer Pots Claim "Glisten, glitter, gleam. Sexy, sultry, sinful. &nbspColor your eye in ways you never dreamed using these ultra-fine, perfectly pigmented loose shimmers.Non-creasing and long lasting.Thirteen shades in two color collections.
PRO tips
· mix them with FACE atelier Transforming Gel to create a custom paint that sets and makes a lasting impression
· add a touch of shimmer to your favorite body moisturizer for an overall glow
· add a little shimmer to FACE atelier Clear Lip Glaze for a custom lip gloss".

Ladies, do these products make you want to hairspray your bangs to the ceiling? Please Post your findings!!

I too LOVE these eyeshadows! When I first applyed, I used the SOV6 first (I also made a bit of a mess when I dipped my brush in too much)and when I applied it it was green on the bottem of my lids and brown on the top lids, I really liked this look, the really great part is it looked as though I had tried really hard to get the two colors this way, when it was SO easy!These are my new favorite make-up. I also love the gold one. It looks nice during the day with a nice shimmery lip gloss. Thanks for the brush tip powderpuffnstuff, the brush really does make all the difference.

One of the colors was wrong for my skin tone. But the other two I had fun with. I like the pearly shade of SPR3 for all over the lid than to contrast with SOV2 on the outer corners. Even though the are shimmery (which I like for night time) they go on sheer. However you do have to be careful with application, like with any loose powder for eyes. Maybe Meg could come up with some great tip for teaching us how to apply loose powder correctly!

The key is in the brush and tapping! Like some of the other girls when trying it the first couple of times I had shadow every where, even ended up on Miss Blu. I tried a smaller brush, tapped, tapped and the love affair began. The SOV6 is my favorite.

I have a confession. I used the silver lip glaze on my eyelids. Guess what? It turned out really well. It gave me a really cool evening look. I kmnow it sounds crazy but it really worked.

I love, love, love these eyeshadows! I love all the colors.The shimmer really accents my eyes.I think the purple is my favorite. The loose powder can be tricky. Whoever wrote using a small brush and only dipping the brush in one time for both eyelids was right. What a difference a small brush makes.

I have one of these shimmer pots: SPR5 Soft Bronze and I love it! There is lots of pigment in this product. Very little is needed to do the job. Just pat sparingly in the area you need it and use a fluff brush to blend. I've used this color for shadow and mixed it with gloss with beautiful results each time. This particular pot was given to me as a gift but I can't wait to order some of the other colors and see how they will mix in with body lotions or nail polishes - perhaps even alone as a cheek color? Who knows? They look extremely versatile. Would I recommend this product? Definitely!

Really beautiful colors, in particular S0V6 kind of looks like a beetle, green at some angles, brown from others. That color alone makes this line worth checking out. But these didn't do it for me. Way too shimmery. I'm more of a fan of just a bit of sparkle in a more solid color base. Plus, they made an absolute mess of my vanity. Glitter everywhere. It looked like French whorehouse! A small brush helped with this situation. But I just don't think I'm a loose eye shadow fan. I'd like to try some other things from their line though.

I have heard nothing but great things about the Face Atelier line! I'm definitely a sucker for loose eyeshadows and will probably end up investing in some of these! I don't think they ship to NZ.. but I know camerareadycosmetics have some of their products and they definitely ship to NZ :D

I really don't care for shimmery eye make-up anymore.  Seems to accentuate the not so positive.  Loose pigment pots are nice though.  I have heard some good things about this brand.  If you are into loose pot shimmers, these sound like they are worth checking out.  Thanks for the nice review.

I still haven't tried loose powder, but I've been meaning to. This eyeshadow looks like a great place to start.

I hate that these types of products are messy, because they are my favorite kind of eyeshadow. Although I have not tried this specific item, I would love to. Shimmer powder shadows seem to go on with the perfect glimmer of color, and I love them.

I've never tried anything from FaceAtelier, given that they seem to be a pretty professional MUA brand that aren't easily accessible in Australia. I hear good things about their Transforming gel though :D
