Wedding reception, not mine! Stila Magnificent Metals foil finish eye shadow - review

So a Wedding Reception party, and time to get glam.  An evening do, I couldn't wait to try out this new eyeshadow I have recently purchased... Stila Magnificent Metals foil finish eyeshadow in Comex Platinum.  So by now you probably realise that I am not averse to the odd silver shadow. In fact its a bit of an obsession.  I am always on hunt for that perfect sparkle...!




 
 

I wanted big eyes and not much else.    I would think that I would look like a bit of a prat with bright lips too, so I opted for a nude.  But hey, I probably look like a prat anyway, lol!!!  The eyeshadow has lots of gizmos to go with it and actually looks a bit scientific.  Way too complex for me, but I gave it my best shot...




A shadow in a pot, a vial of gluey stuff, a pipette and a mixing tray.  Idea is you mix the shadow with the liquid and apply.  And that's it!  Again, with this one I used no base and it seemed to work fine.  It lasted ok, but I let dry and reapplied several times to get that wow factor...



In my humble opinion, it looks a bit patchy in this shot, but I assure you, not patchy at all in the flesh.  It does literally look like foil on your eyes.  Its a little bit different to anything else I own, so will defo keep it safe.  Take a look, see what you think... xxx
