Orglamix Organic Mineral Makeup Review & Giveaway - ENDED

Merry Christmas beauties! I'm so excited today because I'm hosting my first giveaway, thanks to the help of Cheri from Orglamix Cosmetics. She sent me 3 mineral eyeshadows and 1 mineral blush for review. One lucky winner will be able to choose 3 colors from her store!

What is it?
"The next-generation of mineral makeup: zero synthetic ingredients! Orglamix products are proudly formulated without: nano particles, bismuth oxychloride, synthetic dyes, petrochemicals or parabens. PETA approved."


My thoughts:
Ok, some of you who have been reading my blog know that:
1.I love good quality, affordable beauty/make up products
2. I love eco-friendly make up.
This is exactly what Orglamix is! I've been using Orglamix for over 6 months now, and I absolutely love their stuff. The eyeshadows are very pigmented, easy to apply, and go on silky smooth. I always use a primer (although I have not tried theirs), because I have super oily monolids. The colors stay on very nicely and does not crease throughout the day. The three eyeshadow colors that I received - Pearl, Saffron, and Obsidian - are shimmery, bold, vibrant colors. The Pepper Pink blush is a very light barbie pink color, goes on easily and stays on throughout the day. With both the eyeshadows and blush, you need to tap some onto the lid, swirl your brush, tap excess on the lid, then apply. My only "complaint" is that I wish the lids were see-through lids, so I don't have to turn them upside down to see the colors. I currently have all my Orglamix products turned sideways so I can easily spot a certain color. If you are new to the brand, Orglamix also have starter kits available.

That's the look that I created using Orglamix products. I applied Saffron all over my lid; blended Obsidian on the outer corners of lid. Then I applied Pearl to the tear duct area to make the eyes pop. I used Obsidian wet as eyeliner on upper and lower lash line. I have Pink Pepper blush on my cheeks. Lastly, I wore lip balm, and used a brush to apply Saffron on my lips.


Would I recommend this?
Yes, definitely! It's excellent quality makeup that is eco-friendly and affordable.
