Tona Michelle Cosmetics Mineral Eyeshadow Review:
I really liked the formula of these mineral shadows; they are nicely pigmented, go on smooth, and have a great texture.
The shade Air, which is a baby blue, goes on softly on its own but when applied wet takes on a metallic-like vibrant baby blue shade. Really pretty but not a shade I normally wear on its own. It will be a good layering shade for me.
The shade Girlie, is a sweet mid-tone hot pink. I really like the color - it's more pigmented than the Air shade, as you can tell that the shade Girlie doesn't have much difference when applied wet compared to when applied dry.
The only reason I rated these 3.5 out of 5 Kisses, instead of 4 out of 5 Kisses, is because the price is a bit expensive for the amount of product you receive. To be fair, her packaging is different than most; you get a built-in brush applicator instead of just a regular jar with sifter. But I'm also not a huge fan of the packaging. It looks great, don't get me wrong, but I wouldn't use that brush applicator and then it makes it more messy for me to apply. I would rather get the color in a regular rounded jar with or without a sifter (I prefer without a sifter), so it's easier and less messy to use. Or even have the option of ordering it in a jar verses the packaging she has now, so those that do want the brush can get it and those that don't want the brush can get it too. She has a great formula on these shadows, I would just love to see a packaging change and then the price lowered a bit.
Overall, I think these are a fantastic shadow formula, and if you like the packaging then you should try them out!
