I'd been itching to play with mattes for a while, so yesterday I gave it a shot. I was amazed at the staying power of the colors I used, it seems like matte colors last better than their frosty/shimmery/glittery friends. By the time I had them on for about 10 hours, they still looked as bright as they did when I first applied. I had my makeup on for a total of 16 hours, and these really STAYED the whole time.What I used:
Concrete Minerals eye primer
Slimy, by Detrivore (inner lid)
Seaweed/431 by Beauties Factory (outer lid)
Banana Taffy, by Suds N Sass (crease)
Feel the Heat, by High Voltage (highlight)
Jordana Fabuliner in black
Urban Decay 24/7 pencil in Zero
Maybelline Falsies Mascara
Covergirl Liquiline Blast pencil in Green Glow (under waterline)
I really loved how the mattes looked. I just ordered a sample set of the Aromaleigh Hi-Fi Mattes collection, so I'm excited to test out those. I'd also like to try out more of the gorgeous mattes from Beauties Factory.
