Hold onto your eyelash curlers beauty buddies as I think you’ll fully appreciate today’s post… did someone say rose gold?! *ahh hmm* FOILED METALLIC ROSE GOLD?!
I could do the whole let’s play it cool thing and work my way up to telling you how bloody awesome this little pot of lid lustre really is but let’s just cut to the chase. I didn’t think I could love Makeup Revolution any more than I already did (thanks to Iconic 2 AND Mermaids Forever *happy sigh*) however my latest discovery has proven me wrong as there seems to be plenty more room for even more shadow swooning. However enough of me singing Makeup Revolution’s praises as we get down to business.
Fancy smearing your lids in rose-gold goodness? Then you’ve come to the right place…
TELL ME MORE
Who: Makeup Revolution
What: Awesome Metals Foil Finish Eyeshadow
Where: Superdrug or MUR Online Store
How much: £4
.
WHAT’S THE SELLING POINTS?
Full metallic foil finish
Liquid Primer makes it all day wear
Build up for a more intense look
Under £5
Easy to mix & apply
.
WHAT’S IN THE BOX?
1 Pot of Awesome Metals Eyeshadow
1 Bottle Awesome Liquid Eye Primer
1 Mixing Tray
.
HOW DO I USE IT?
1) Put a small drop of the liquid eye primer into the mixing tray
2) Add a small amount of your Awesome Metals Colour into the tray
3) Mix it all together (I used a sponge applicator to smush everything up) and then apply directly onto your lid.
*If building the colour add in light layers as opposed to heavy applications all at once*
.
WHAT’S TO LOVE?
Everything! Yep, EVERYTHING. The packaging is funky, the product is super easy to use, great to apply, love the formula, totally buildable, looks PHENOMENAL and of course the pocket friendly price tag adds a great big cherry on top 😉 I also can’t wait to top up my collection with the other gorgeous shades too… Black Diamond, Pure Platinum & Emerald Goddess.
What I adore is the subtle colour of the shade, yet the vibrancy of the metallic finish. The colour isn’t overly coppery on one application however the more layers are added the stronger the shade becomes which makes it perfect to work with if you only want a hint of rose gold OR if you’re up for the full copper experience!
.
WHAT’S TO LOATHE?
Honestly, nothing. Nada. Zilch. Personally I adore everything about this cute little kit. Okay the products may be a tad compact but unless you’ve eyelids like hammocks it’s going to last a super long time (depending of course on how often you apply!)
THE FINISHED LOOK:

It does look amazing! But what about wastage? Once it’s been mixed does it have to go in then bin? Are the components available separately and can you use the shadow on its own, without the primer?
LikeLiked by 1 person
Wastage is super minimal as you’ll only need to scoop out what you use (a small amount at a time I would imagine)
Nope, components just sold as a kit box but everything would probably run down at the same time so would more than likely make sense to buy it all at once 🙂 For £4 though it’s awesome and probably wouldn’t be worth the money selling it separately. You could indeed use the shadow on it’s own (if you wanted too) though the primer is there to keep it crease free and adhered on the lid for as long as possible, so best to utilise it as it was intended 🙂 Lovely kit, just wish they would extend into a purple shades – that would be awesome 😀 Hope you’re keeping well XXXX
