Sweet Libertine Mineral Eye Shadow Review

Hey everyone!

This is a review on Sweet Libertine Cosmetics’ Mineral Eye Shadows in the shades: Burnin’ Love, Forever Jung, Cleopatra, Lounge Act, Nutmeg, Kierkegaardian Angel, Rope Burn, Fortress of Solitude, Hellraiser, and Tasseled Pasties!


Sweet Libertine Mineral Cosmetics is an independent mineral makeup company owned and operated by Sarah Waller. Fed up by the expensive yet inferior cosmetics readily available, Sarah set about spending some time experimenting in her super-secret laboratory. Raising a big middle finger to conventional beauty standards, Sweet Libertine was finally ready to be unleashed on the world. Specializing in offbeat styles and catering to off-kilter women and men, Sweet Libertine set about challenging every preconceived notion of how a cosmetics company could and should be run.


Sweet Libertine's vibrantly colored mineral eye shadows have fun; witty names that add character to them. Their silky, smooth textures blend effortlessly to  enhance sparkles without creasing, while having little to no fallout. 

Beauty Tip: Use a little eye shadow for a light wash of color during the day, or build up the intensity to create a more dramatic look for evening.


From Left to Right:

Fortress of Solitude won’t have you lonely for long with its magical white frosty color that shimmers blue, pink and purple!

Kierkegaardian Angel’s iridescent hue is heavenly.

Nutmeg serves up a savory dish with its rich copper and light golden shimmer!

Tasseled Pasties is a sparkly turquoise eye shadow that puts the tease in striptease with its gorgeous silver shimmer!

Rope Burn’s glittering dirty copper hue leaves your eyes bedazzled!

Hellraiser’s eye-popping deep copper color is chillingly awesome!

Burnin’ Love is a guaranteed show stopper with its stunning mauve shade and multi-colored sparkles, Viva la Elvis!

Lounge Act’s seductive sheer teal with slight purple shimmer and striking silver glitter makes for a Class Act!

Cleopatra’s brassy gold eye shadow is so villainously gorgeous; you might just get arrested sugah!

Forever Jung is a shimmering peach elixir that will keep you Jung at Heart!

Pros:
~Stunning, rich colors
~Easy to apply and wear
~Fun, unique names
~Great for travel

Cons:
~Absolutely none!

Overall, I rate these eye shadows at 5 out of 5 sugarcubes! Sarah Waller, mad impresario or creative genius with her funky, off-the-wall colored mineral eye shadows, you decide?

XoXo,
Whitney

~Sweet Libertine Mineral Cosmetics Eye Shadow Review!~

Hey everyone!


Here is my review of the Sweet Libertine Mineral Eye Shadows!

Sweet Libertine mineral eye shadows are vibrant with color and have fun, witty names. If you are like me, then the names of products are very important to you! I know that I am way more likely to purchase a product that has a name that catches my eye.

The colors that Sarah sent to me are absolutely gorgeous, and very pigmented. My absolute favorite one is called Café Au Lait, and I have been wearing it almost every day. I wear Café Au Lait as a lid color with Smokey Joe in the outer corner and crease.

The textures of the eye shadows are very silky and smooth, and blend effortlessly as well as enhance one another. In addition, they have a beautiful sheen to them that last all day. This gives your eyes a sparkle without creasing and little to no fallout. Just remember, to give a good tap to your makeup brush (or finger if you are like me, and in a hurry)! You can apply a light wash of color, or build up the eye shadow for a more dramatic look, because you never know when you might meet a really cute guy, so it’s important to always look great!

Sweet Libertine mineral eye shadows are smaller than your average mineral eye shadow containers, but I find this to be a plus. The smaller containers make for easy storage in my makeup bag, and I know that I can actually finish them!

Unfortunately, I have found that larger eye shadow containers can end up being around for years; until they are used up or worst yet, thrown away due to caking, or just plain out of date colors.

Pros:
~Beautiful colors
~Easy to apply
~Little to no fall out
~Smaller jar size
~Silky, smooth texture
~Does not crease

Cons (there is only one!):
~Large shifter holes (which can lead to powder spilling over and being messy)


From left to right the colors are: Smokey Joe (a beautiful purple, grey color with silver glitter), Cafe Au Lait (a gorgeous deep copper color), and Endor (an amazing rich emerald green color).

From left to right the colors are: Tan Line (a beautiful brown/copper color with gold flecks), Manhattan Project (a gorgeous mint/mossy green color), Seven Below (an amazing ice blue with a silver sheen), Satin Sheets (a rich, vibrant purple with a gold tint), and Forbidden Fruit (an elegant gold fairy dust color) .


Overall, I rate these eye shadows at 5 out of 5 sugarcubes! I love these eye shadows, they are high quality and absolutely gorgeous! They will always be an essential in my makeup bag!
