Dawn Eyes Cosmetics

   I was a bit overwhelmed when I was to pick 10 shadows for samples to try out when I visited Dawn Eyes Cosmetics website. I have never seen so many different shades of loose pigments on an online store. And imagine my surprise when they had arrived in the mail!! The pictures taken for each of the colors on http://www.dawneyescosmetics.com/ truly do not do the pigments justice! Such gorgeous shimmers!!! I am actually looking forward to the day when our family is set and I can use my personal blow money to buy them out each month!

"Dewy Moss" using  Holographic White, Glittering Aquamarine, Take Your Teal, and Dew Drops for this look.


   A STATEMENT FROM DAWN EYES ABOUT THEIR PRODUCTS: "Dawn Eyes Cosmetics is a very small mineral makeup start-up located in mid-Missouri, USA. The inspiration for Dawn Eyes Cosmetics was the closing of a mineral makeup company from which I used to purchase all of my eye shadows. An investment in raw ingredients from the closing company brought more than I could possibly use in a lifetime, and so I started making eye shadows for friends and family. Once I had started I couldn't get enough of creating gorgeous shades: simple day-to-day shades, pearly and soft shimmering shades, and all-out glittery creations that I love to wear day or night.
I started giving away samples to anyone who was the least bit interested and soon I had people asking for specific colors they wanted me to create or for full sized jars of sample colors they'd been given. Up to a point, this worked fairly well, but then I discovered that my friends were giving some of their samples to their friends, and were even being asked by acquaintances and co-workers where they'd gotten the lovely shades, so somehow I had to reach those people too! Well, no one is anyone unless they have a website, so after much thought (I originally hadn't intended to make a business out ot it) and making sure that I had the blessing of the owner of my former favorite place, as well as checking on available names, Dawn Eyes Cosmetics was born." (http://www.dawneyescosmetics.com/about_us.html)

  Their colors are just BREATHTAKING!!! This is definitely a store I want to keep tabs on for purchases in the future! Perfect for everyday. The shadows do not "lose" their shimmer when applied. They have many soft neutral colors, and a some really bold bright colors. A store that has everything for everyone. I will be working on a tutorial in future for the Dewy Moss (and prehaps others as time allows, using the other samples they sent). But for now here are photos of Dewy Moss and swatches of other colors sent. I was sent the samples in baggies; I have 5 gram eyeshadow jars I use to pot samples, thus making it easier to handle the products without spilling.
