Hey guys and welcome back to another review (what else is new?). We love doing these and hunting down new products to share with you all and these are actually not that new at the drugstore but its taken me a while to write a review for it (because I'm lazy :D ). So here are the Covergirl Bombshell Shineshadows.
I'm not a huge fan of Covergirl I've only really tried their foundations. I have some eyeshadow quads and trios but they aren't that great compared to the other drugstore brands. I've never even tried a mascara from them and apparently they are really awesome! Mental reminder: need to try Covergirl mascara's out. Anyone have any suggestions? I like volumizing mascara's the best. Leave a comment down below!
Now back to the product, these came out I think around early January with the whole "bombshell" collection and I just happened upon these at a display at Target. I had no intention of buying these but they looked actually very interesting and I figured it was time to try out more Covergirl products.
The colors I have are 325 Copper Fling (on the left) and 310 Platinum Club (on the right). These were the two colors I was most interested in. There are a total of six shine shadows, a white, a gold, a green, and a lilac. I have the other two.
Here's what Covergirl claims: Transform your eyes into bombshell sexy. Each shiny or shimmery Bombshell Shineshadow by LashBlast contains reflective pigments so your eyes dazzle when light hits your face. It is a long lasting cream shadow, blendable formula, and has easy breezy application.
Lots of wonderful claims Covergirl! So let's get with the review.
Up first is the shineshadow in 310 Platinum Club. It is this gorgeous purple and silver iridescent shadow. These shadows apply on smoothly and evenly and with one coat, perfect pigmentation. The name definitely speaks for it because this looks great with a smoky eye.
Here is the other color I bought, 325 Copper Fling. Again, the same formula so it has the same qualities as platinum club. Now this is actually more of a pinky copper instead of like a brass copper. It doesn't have that much brown undertones. The pink pops through a lot more. Regardless, I love the color. This is more of an everyday kind of shadow.
I cannot express how much I love these shineshadows because they are absolutely amazing. This is a perfect addition to the part of my makeup collection I like to call the "lazy girl makeup". It is super easy to blend and you just need the smallest amount to cover an eyelid. As the saying goes, a little goes a long way.
I would suggest wearing a primer with these shadows. I didn't see too much creasing but after the end to a long day, there definitely will be. These did last for a really long time. It was great for a whole "work" day which is about eight hours.
Pros:
- Packaging fits in the palm of my hand, travel friendly, and is a squeeze tube meaning hygienic
- A little goes a long way! You'll have these forever!
- Super pigmented and smooth
- Easy to blend
- Pretty long-lasting
Cons:
- Does crease a little bit at the end of the day, so you'll need a primer
Overall Thoughts:
Overall, this is an amazing buy. The colors are gorgeously pigmented and it is such an easy wear. I love to just bring these around in my travel makeup bag and in my everyday makeup bag. They are just super convenient! I would totally recommend this for anyone to try out.
