After posting pictures and swatches of the Color Explosion Amethyst Ablazed shadows, I was eager to try these out. I was quite surprised by the result when applying these shadows. Even though the texture is similar to the EyeStudio shadows, these Color Explosion shadows were looking very matte on the eyes.
The EyeStudio shadows I own are so very shimmery and look amazing on the eyes. These Color Explosion shadows had to grow on me a bit once I put them on.
The sparkly top coat adds a glittery look that gave me a what I like to call a “showgirl” effect. I think this topcoat is what finally sealed the deal for me. This may not be for everyone but I ALWAYS prefer a shimmer/sparkle over any other look. If you prefer to go without the topcoat you would still have a great matte shadow look with Amethyst Ablazed!
Overall, I did end up really liking these shadows and the final look even though I didn’t love them when I first put them on!
Don’t forget, check my previous post for pictures, swatches, and a comparison of the Color Explosion to the EyeStudio shadows!
Do YOU have a favorite from the Color Explosion shadows yet?
