For Summer 2014, Make Up For Ever released a range of smudge-proof, crease-proof, and highly pigmented eye shadow pencils called the Aqua Matics. Today I have the shade "Iridescent Electric Blue I-22" to review and swatch for y'all, to check it out, click.......What it is:
-Long-lasting, high-intensity eye colors with a lightweight finish
-Glides easily, formulated with silica, oils, and polymer that lock in color and guarantee all-day-wear
-Available in 10 shades, ranging from neutral metallics to bright satins or iridescent finishes
Packaging:
The Aqua Matic comes in a twist up crayon dispenser. There is a nifty little sharpener tucked away at the bottom of the crayon. To use it, simply pull it out and sharpen away!
The color I have here is a beautiful, bold, cobalt blue with a subtle shimmer. The pigmentation is very intense and the formulation is smooth and glides beautifully across the lids.
The tip of the pencil is sharp enough that it can be used as a liner. The product can also be blended to create a smoky effect. However, the color does set quite quickly so be sure to work fast.
Make Up For Ever is not exaggerating when they say that the Aqua Matics provide all day wear. The eye shadow pencil literally becomes smudge-proof immediately after it sets. I even tried to really smudge it with my hands and the product will not budge!
I am in love! The Aqua Matic Eye Shadow Pencil not only has a superb formulation that glides smoothly, the color literally will last all day until you take it off (it comes off easily with an oil-based remover). I think these are perfect for the humid, hot, summer weather but the more neutral colors from the range will work well all year round. Two thumbs up, this product is awesome!
