Makeup Geek Bitten Eyeshadow: Review + Swatch

This is one of the most popular Makeup Geek shadows they make, it retails for only $5.99 like all their other shadows. Currently only online, but they are doing retail locations in the future.

  • "Matte Deep Maroon Red"
  • Not as intense as it is in the pan
  • Blends really smoothly and evenly
  • True matte maroon
  • Can be a great lid shade, transition, blending shadow, or even lower lashline
  • Could be used as a darker blush if used lightly
  • Stay tuned for an upcoming tutorial using this shadow ;)
Overall,
I was intimidated when I first got this shadow in the mail, but the hype is real. Everyone says it is a must have, and it really is! Don't be like me and wait forever to buy this shadow, if you don't own any shadows like this--go ahead and order it!

Saved the best, in my opinion, for last. So far, I've reviewed Blackberry Sorbet and Pink Souffle. This is the 3rd, and final Sephora Cream Lip Stain I own. At $13, there are a few others I may eventually get, as well as continue to hope for more shades!  Same Packaging as the others Marvelous Mauve Do-foot applicator Arm Swatch A stunning mauve, just like the name Full face, it's really a beautiful color for everyone I'd call it neutral undertone, maybe a bit blue (makes teeth the same if not whiter) Lasts all day longStains, no touch ups neededSupposed dupe to Stila Patina, Every time I try to get my hands on that on it's always sold out (this was for the longest time as well)Applies very smoothly and evenlyLittle to no shimmers, unlike the other shadesDoesn't make lips look dryDoesn't dry lips outSame slight vanilla scentFlattering color, and tone Overall, If you can ever find this in stock, you need it! There is a reason why it is always sold out, and that&…

Milani has done it again! This is essentially a brow pomade. The range includes 5 shades, retailing at only $6.99.  This product is already up on the milani site, and I found mine a few weeks ago in-stores.  I bought mine in the second shade, 02 Natural Taupe "Light Taupe for Golden Blonde to Light Ash Brown Hair" Comes with it's own brush More on the"golden blonde" side
Here I used it in my brows The brushAngled side:Average angled brush, not too flimsy, great for filling in browsSpoolie side:A little harsh, not as good at spreading the brow product aroundGoes on as a creamSets into place, doesn't move throughout the dayIn some lights this shade looks a little too warm, in other lights a green tingeOverall a fairly good color matchAffordable alternative to say Dipbrow by Anastasia Beverly HillsA little product goes a long wayWon't run out for a long time Overall, This is a great brow product, at a great price! It's not the kind of product that has a…
