Mineral Eyeshadow

The best part about eyeshadow is its versatility. You can wear one of our bronze-y vegan eyeshadow shades for an easy daytime look, or go bold with something smokey and dark at night. Our mineral eyeshadows come in a range of colors and formulas–but each one is a talc free eyeshadow that delivers beautiful color and blends like a dream.

Cream eyeshadow is a waxy, often highly pigmented, eyeshadow that doesn’t require much build up. Because of this, you can apply cream eyeshadow with your finger directly to your lid–and voila! Your eye makeup is complete. Loose eyeshadow on the other hand has the potential for more dimension as you can layer up the intensity with an eyeshadow brush. Both are great options to keep your daily makeup bag!

Eyeshadow palettes are a great way to experience several shadow shades in one product. Our Mineralist eyeshadow palette, for example, comes in several different color stories–Warmth, Stonewashed, Ultranatural and Eco-Beautiful. Each of these mineral eyeshadow palettes feature six richly pigmented, ultra-blendable shades with a range of finishes, so you can create the eye look of your dreams.

There are a few steps to follow to get a complete eye look. Begin by priming your eyelids to ensure longevity. Apply a light eyeshadow shade on the lid as a base. Use a medium shade in the crease to add dimension, and a darker shade on the outer corner for depth. Blend the colors seamlessly for a gradient effect. Apply eyeliner along the lash line and finish with mascara to define your lashes.

To apply eyeshadow, start with a clean lid and a primer. Choose your desired shades and apply the lightest color on the lid. Apply the medium shade in the crease and the darker shade on the outer corner. Blend using gentle back-and-forth motions. Highlight the brow bone and inner corner with a light shade.

Yes, you can use eyeshadow as lipstick in a pinch. Mix the eyeshadow with a clear lip balm or gloss to create a custom lip color. However, keep in mind that eyeshadows are formulated for the delicate eye area and might not have the same staying power or comfort as actual lip products.

Talc-free eyeshadow is important for those who are sensitive or allergic to talc. Talc-free formulas are also considered safer, as talc can potentially be contaminated with asbestos. Talc-free eyeshadows provide a safer option without compromising on color payoff or blendability.

To fix broken eyeshadow, crush the broken pieces into a fine powder. Add a few drops of rubbing alcohol and mix until it forms a paste. Press the paste back into the eyeshadow pan and allow it to dry. Once dry, the eyeshadow will be usable again.

White eyeshadow can be used to highlight the inner corner of your eyes or the brow bone for a brightening effect. It can also be applied to the center of the eyelid to make the eyes appear larger.

Complementary warm shades like gold, copper, peach, and warm browns can make blue eyes pop. Shades of purple, especially those with reddish undertones, can also accentuate blue eyes.

Brown eyes can pull off a variety of colors. Earthy tones like warm browns, bronze, and rich greens can enhance brown eyes. Shades of purple, including plums and mauves, can also bring out the warmth in brown eyes.

Green eyes can be complemented with warm shades like peach, coral, gold, and reddish-browns. Purple eyeshadows, especially those with reddish undertones, can also enhance the green tones in the eyes.

BareMinerals mineral eyeshadow is formulated without harsh chemicals, fragrances, or synthetic dyes. It's gentle on sensitive skin and can provide buildable color. Mineral eyeshadows are also known for their blendability and can be suitable for various skin types.

To get a matte eyeshadow look, one must use shades without any shimmer or shine. Follow the steps for applying eyeshadow, but only using matte shades to create depth and definition. Matte eyeshadows are great for a more natural or subtle look.

The lifespan of eyeshadow palettes varies depending on usage and quality. Well-cared-for palettes can last for a couple of years. However, the texture and performance of the eyeshadows may degrade over time.

To clean an eyeshadow palette, gently wipe the surface of each eyeshadow with a clean tissue or cotton pad to remove excess product. To clean your eyeshadow brushes, you can also lightly spritz a makeup brush cleaner onto a clean tissue and then gently swipe your brushes over the tissue.
