When I transitioned to clean ingredients makeup,I discovered there are not to many brands on the market, that create clean eyeshadows, but one of them is Zao Organic Makeup, and I finally get to try one of their latest makeup palettes, Clin D’oeil 2, which means Wink, since I googled it up 😉

The name of the Palette was quite surprising to me, a French word for an Italian brand, very hard to pronounce, and really unnecessary!

PALETTE:

I’m in love with the simple bamboo case design, featuring a big mirror, and magnetic removable eyeshadows. It is very sleek, not to heavy, and is travel friendly.

PRICE:

The palette has 10 eyeshadows, and I only found this palette available to buy on the UK website, for £52.00, which is about $64 at current currency. On the website, there is also an option to buy the eyeshadows individually at £5.95, so for the full palette, you get a small discount.

Each eyeshadow weights 1.3 g and comparing to their round eyeshadow refills, these are more expensive.

COLOR OPTION: 

This palette has neutrals, warm tone and also cool tone eyeshadows, so is very versatile and you can create really a ton of makeup looks.

APPLICATION:

Do use your fingers to get a high metallic effect, or a brush for a more subtle look. These eyeshadows can’t be applied with a wet brush, since the base is an oil. You also need to prime your eyelids if they are really dry, so the eyeshadow will adhere easily. I found the brush in the palette to be useless, but I will definitely use it with other eyeshadows I have from Zao.

Let me know if any of you tried these eyeshadows and have any tips on how to apply them, since I kinda lost my mind 😉
