Mineral makeup strikes again! I picked up Revlon’s ColorStay Mineral Eye Shadow in Sunlit Jade, which has shimmery creme, bronze and olive colors. Revlon’s ColorStay 12 Hour shadow is very popular and long-wearing, so I was hopeful about the talc-free version. Most of the shades are so neutral, they’d work for most skin tones, but I really didn’t love the olive color this one came with. Plus, I wish they’d offered more of the cah-razy colors Buns loves to wear. Sigh…no one is flamboyant like me.
On the plus side, the texture feels great - it’s ultra smooth and silky feeling. The colors blend really well with each other, and I was able to smooth out most of the olive color without redoing my makeup (yay!) Also, the product seemed to last well like its 12-hour counterpart - they stayed true and fresh looking for a good 4 hours or so. (Don’t judge it because of that - the 12 hour thing’s a lie too.)
The verdict: 3/5 stars - great for an everyday pick, but the lack of color selection took away something from this shadow.
Revlon ColorStay Mineral Eye Shadowsells at Drugstore.com for $8.49.
