Chrome eye shadows by Annabelle Cosmetics

In the cosmetic world, glitters are everyone's worst enemy. They're pretty but...they always gets everywhere. The floor, your clothes, the carpet. And, an accident arrives so fast! If you love the look of glitters but can't commit to cleaning up the mess they leave behind, these single Chrome eye shadows by Annabelle Cosmetics are you you. There isn't a lot of shades - only five - and I'll admit that they are 'comfort colors' but, you can do a handful of looks with them. 

The packaging of these Chrome eye shadows reminded me of the similar ones by Stila - the ones you have to mix in a liquid with. Be careful, these dries fast and if you don't want to throw them out before you make a dent in the pot, you better close the lid fast after you use them and keep it tight. The texture is very creamy and glides on easily on the lid. After trying with a brush and with my fingers, the latter is when I got the best results. It gets more products on the lid and, if you want to be more precise (ex: inner corner), you can always use a small brush to push/blend the product there. The Chrome eye shadow pots catch the light easily when you wear them and will make any eye look stand out. The wear time was fairly great for glitters, these don,t end up on your cheeks or all over your face throughout the day. I wore them to shows and they lasted trough the whole evening - very surprising. They made my makeup look poppin in photos! (Thanks Annabelle!) I hope they come out with more shades and expand to brighter colors like blues, reds, purple or oranges/peach. Those would be nice.

Gold is a champagne gold that goes with every looks. This shade is my favorite of the bunch. I wear it so much I made a dent in it - no shame. It stands out against any eye shadows you pair it with. My favorite way to wear it is with a smokey eye or, just a simple brown/bronzer shade (I love the one from the Love Contours All by NYX, it's the best for this look) in the crease. And, it pairs with every lip shades too. If you're planning on getting only one, this gold shade is the one to go!

Annabelle Cosmetics single Chrome eye shadows in Rose Gold

Rose Gold is, in my opinion, less sparkly than the silver and gold shade. Personally, I wouldn't qualify this shade as 'rose gold'. It's more of a light brown shade with a pink hue. I love pairing this with my red tones eye shadows like Bitten, Cherry Cola and Americano from Makeup Geek. Makes the perfect red/cranberry halo eye.

Silver is very bright and sparkly. It literally looks like aluminum foil. When you're working with cool tones, silver is your best friend if you want a pop of glitters. In the middle for a halo eye or simply all over the lid, this silver shade will make any look stand out. Perfect for Christmas parties and holiday looks!
