Review
I was so excited to receive a set of free samples from Cheri of Orglamix last week – I was sent this eyeshadow set, for brown eyes. At first glance I was concerned that the eyeshadows might be a bit too iridescent, but was pleasantly surprised when I tried them – they had just the right amount of shimmer. I first tried out Cardamom, the dark brown eye shadow. It was a nice color, but had red/pink undertones – so wasn’t a good all over color for my fair skin. I had much better results when using Violette – this ended up being an excellent all over color and looked really pretty on my eyes, perfect for Spring. When applied the color softened to a lovely light grey/light brown color with a hint of violet. I added Cardamom on the outer lid, and that looked nice – with Chamomile swept on above the crease I was ready to head out. All of the eyeshadows were easy to apply, had a nice texture, great staying power, yet still washed off easily with water.
Why is mineral make-up so wonderful you ask? Cheri takes special care to ensure that her makeup is free from the harmful ingredients you’ll find in most makeup at your local drugstore – her line is professional quality, made from 100% natural ingredients and has no chemical additives. Further to that Cheri is a proud member of Peta and none of her products are ever tested on animals. Orglamix has quickly built up a cult following and we’re happy to hear Cheri is currently developing lots of new products!

I love that all of Orglamix’s products are Vegan and eco.
I really like the Refillable Dispensing Mineral Makeup Brush. I use mineral makeup and I that would be great to throw in my purse.
But if I’d have to pick an Orglamix makeup product I choose either the Peppermint or Acai Berry Pure Mineral Eye Color. I think those would look radiant on my skin tone.
I love the Cardamom – Pure Mineral Eye Color

I have been looking for a reasonably priced line of mineral make-up to try and I think I have found it – I would love to sample the Orglamix Pure Mineral Powder Newbie Kit for Light Skin Tones but would be happy to add an eyeshadow or two for fun. Thanks for the great tip!
