Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Kit

Some things I loved and some I didn't. First I applied a primer to the upper lid only and then a concealer over the lid and under the eye. I usually have very dark areas in the inner corner of my eyes and underneath. Caused by bad sinuses. I like to use the concealer in the inner corner and blend it as much as possible. For a lighter pigmented eyeshadow, I take one of the lighter colors and do the whole upper lid past the crease and just below the eyebrow area. Then I pick a medium color and do the crease and right above the crease (I'll tell you why shortly). Next I take one of the darkest colors in this case the dark brown and pat the very outer corner of my upper lid. This gives the illusion that your eyes are a little farther apart. I take a thin brush and use one of the darker shadows right under my lower lashes to about the center of the eye. Next I tried to wet line the lower eyelid with the brown but couldn't really get much color out of it. I lined both the upper and lower lids with a thin line of the black line. To finish off I used the dark mascara and then once it was dry used the lighter mascara but couldn't really see a difference. I have to say that when I was done I was very happy with the way it looked. I wore the eye makeup for about 11 hours with no issues at all and it looked just like it did when I put it on. So here's the Pros: Stays on as promised, Doesn't irritate the eyes, Nice colors for daytime, easy to pack up in a small makeup bag and take along. Cons: I ditched the sponge that came with the kit. It was hard and scratchy to me. The brown eyeliner is way too light in color. Wasn't crazy about the mascara and not sure what the beige mascara is supposed to do.I'm 67 years old and wear makeup every day. My eyes are hooded which is why I carry the centerline above the crease as it gives the illusion that your eyes are bigger and not as hooded. The same for the dark color at the outside corner - makes the eyes look further apart. After each addition of eyeshadow it's important to blend. I used a small, half circle brush to apply most of the shadow, a domed shaped fluffy brush for blending and a blunt edged brush for the lower lash line. I do like the shadows a lot and I will use them. I like the small little case the shadows are in and it's much lighter and easier to use for travel. I recommend it especially if you like playing around with shading - gives you plenty of choices! Have fun!

Great products! I wish they would make the eye shadow compact in a bigger container :)The eye liners are the best!The mascara is good but the wand is bulky. Needs to be thinner.

Love the eyeshadow and eyeliner. The mascara was all dried out.

I loved these product! I have very sensitive skin and eyes and have used Physician's Formula mascara off and on for a year. This is my first time trying the eye shadows, eye liners, and these mascaras.The eye shadows:Buttery smooth! These eye shadows offered sometimes soft, sometimes intense color depending on the specific shade. I like that. I wanted soft pinks and peaches with a warmer richer brown. And the blending! I am average talented when it comes to applying makeup. I have to get right close to the mirror to see and am not the best with blending. These shades made me feel and look a lot more professional. Are the shimmer? YES! OF-COURSE! They are labeled as such. Are these perfect for spring and summer naturally enhanced beauty looks, ABSOLUTELY! Swatches on my hand didn't last long, but am having great time on eyes, even with my oily lids, no primer or setting spray.The eye liners:Two shimmer shades. One a metallic pewter with hints of copper and the other a dark smokey grey-black with tiny flecks of glitter. Both shades have lasted a long time on the back of my hand and compliment the shadows perfectly.The mascaras:Similar in color to the eye liner, a duel ended mascara with a 2/3 section dark smokey black and a 1/3 pewter add volume and length without clumping. Applying the black mascara alone is quality good lashes. Definitely better than some other more expensive drug store brands. The pewter end applied after the black adds glamour and depth to a very pretty effect.Over all:I love this pallet. I am stunned by this price and with prime, you get the package in 2-3 days with free shipping.MY ONLY CONCERN:When I opened my package from the large brown/yellow envelope, the box was smashed a little and the top was opened. Nothing inside had been touched, but still that wasn't cool. Other than that, totally totally recommend.

I LOVE everything about it except the black eyeliner. I don't know if the formula is different from the brown or what, but the brown glides on nice and smooth and stays all day. The black is awful. It's hard a rock and does not go on easily, evenly, or smoothly. It's so dry, it pulls at my eyelid and actually physically hurts and causes irritation. It's also chunky and even breaks off into very small pieces.I tried everything I could think of. I scribbled on my hand, thinking maybe it had a waxy covering. I broke the tip off, thinking that maybe it was dry and further down would have a better texture. I warm it up between my fingers first. Nothing works. I don't know if this is standard for the black eyeliner, or perhaps I got an old one or one from a bad batch. Like I said, the brown is fantastic (as is the eyeshadow palate), so I can't imagine that the black formula is that much different. I have asked the company to send me a new one so I can see if that's how the black is or if I got a bad one. If they send me a good black eyeliner, I will definitely change my review!

I like to get up at the last possible moment before heading to work and was looking for a small kit to leave at the office so I can apply makeup there if I run out of time. I only wear eye makeup because my skin absorbs anything else I try to put on it. It was difficult finding another product that was a small kit and had only eye makeup as anything else would just be a waste. This product fit my needs exactly.It's small and easy to put in a little carrying case. It's Physician's Formula, which if you haven't used their products before I highly recommend them, so it doesn't irritate my eyes the way a lot of other products do. I spend most of my day staring at a computer monitor and many other products irritate my eyes by the end of the day. In addition, I use Cetaphyl to wash my face and remove my makeup before going to bed. Other products can sometimes be difficult to remove without using actual makeup remover. I found that the makeup in this kit is easy to remove in this way with minimal effort and fuss.The eye shadow can start to be less defined by the end of the work day so I use Urban Decay's eye primer before application and that becomes a non-issue. I typically have to use the primer no matter what brand of eye shadow I'm using as my eyelids get greasy by the end of the day. This is especially true if I'm tired so this in no way should detract from the review.I would recommend this product to a friend and would buy it again. The price was reasonable considering what you get and Physician's Formula has a long reputation for being "easy on the eyes".

Top quality, nice set

Will definitely order again.Went to take pictures today and it was very hot out. Makeup stayed in place 😁

I bought this bundle cause first I love the colors and 2nd, its hypoallergenic .

Came quickly and i liked the colours. The eye shadow is all sparkly

Muy bonitos. Me parecen que sirven de obsequio pero la calidad no la puedo medir.

Was the best combo pack I purchased ...the black eyeliner is ammaazziinngg...the brown is nice but not visible on skin tone below Ivory fais.. but useful for other purposes....the doublecolored mascara is fantastic too...the shadow palette is hyperpigmented naked pieces just the same as shown in pic n looks perfect...gives a dramatic smoky look to beautiful n soft natural look...😊
