Fuschia Make Up eyeshadow pigments review, photos, swatches

Last week Joanne went to the AWear press show (more about that next week) and came home with a bag of Fuschia make up and like a good sister, promptly handed it over to moi.  Heads up that the brand is coming to AWear stores soon but at the moment, you can buy online, in their two standalone stores in Drogheda and Swords, or from salons around the country.  All stockists are on the website.

I'd not heard of Fuschia Make Up until I was at the Irish Beauty Trade Show earlier this year and this is the first time I'm trying out any products.  Trying new brands makes me happy.  We like Karen to be happy don't we?

Anyway, there were two pigments in the bag, neither with names on them, just numbers.  8 and 11 if that helps you pick them out when you're going swatching, and you really do need to go swatching because these are fantastic products.  €12.95 is the damage for two pots filled with loosely packed, pigmented shadows that pack a punch in terms of colour payoff.

See?  You can use them wet or dry and I'd advise either using your finger or a flat eyeshadow brush to pat the colour on, or else it'll go everywhere except your eyelid.  Of course with loose shadows like this, there'll be a bit of fall out but if you take your time and place the colour, you'll be flying and have grand eyes like these below!

I've used the two shades together, giving different looks and the colours work so well together.  But you could use them on their own too.

Yes, my two eyes were different as usual and no, nobody knocked at the door this time!  I can't wait to head to a Fuschia store and try out more of the shadows and everything else they've to offer.

Have you tried anything from Fuschia?  What do I need to try next?
