Maybelline Eyeshadows as a highlight

Comparison and Review:

Maybelline Eyeshadows in Linen and Champagne Fizz

Used as a highlight for the face

Hello beauty muffins.

I first heard about the Maybelline eyeshadow in Champagne Fizz from either Elle or Blair Fowler (if you haven’t heard of them go check them out—I’ll put their youtube urls in the bottom of this post). One of them was raving about what a great product this was and how beautiful it looked as a highlight. I decided to try it out.

But when I got to the store I realized that Linen was the exact same color (essentially) only matte instead of shimmer.

I tend to have fairly oily skin and I was worried a shimmer highlight would only accentuate this so I opted for the matte color, Linen.

However I was fairly disappointed. Linen did not give me the effect I was looking for. It did highlight the areas I was trying to highlight. So when I was at the grocery store and saw that Champagne Fizz (and all the other Maybelline singles) were only $2.54 I had to get it.

I am so glad I did, because it is such a beautiful highlight.

If you’re new to makeup or a professional MUA it’s a very versatile product and would add to anyone’s collection.

for some reason I don't have a good swatch of linen. I will get one asap and add it. =]

until next time
