Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Kit with Eyeshadow, Eyeliner & Mascara, Nude

Before trying this brand, my allergies would cause my eyes to water literally washing away my eye make up. I've on k y had this set a few days however, already can tell it doesn't cause my eyes to water! The black eyeliner is great, the brown is less concentrated. Tue mascara is basic sonic doesn't offer thickening or lengthening but for me, it works because as I stated, it doesn't cause my eyes to water and run off. The shadows are pretty but are shimmery.

Beautiful Colors I really love the colors

I really like this so far. I take it in my work bag in case I need freshen it up at work. The smaller size is suitable for that.1) The brown mascara I used to cover gray hairs at my hairline when I was overdue for my hair appt. It worked well.2) The black mascara has an impossible wand that gooped up the second application and never recovered.3) I was pleasantly surprised at how long the eyeliner stays on. Pencils usually fade right off.4) The eyeshadow is a little too shimmery for my taste but I'm wearing it anyway, and the palette has nice color choices.NOTE: I think I should mention that I always use an eye makeup primer. Without the primer it might not be as wearable.

Its blendable textures and long-lasting wear, though some mention that the shimmer can be quite bold. If you're looking for a complete eye-enhancing kit with versatile application options, this could be a great choice.

When I ordered this kit, it was going for $13. that’s normally the price for one tube of mascara so I thought it was a deal. I should’ve read the description closer. The pallet is small and eyeshadows are travel size. They’re very shimmery and pretty. The black is not very pigmented and they’re a little bit spotty. The color is buildable, but I think it’s more so meant to be a topper and it says as much on the back of the box it came in. I’m disappointed in the black mascara, It seemed a little dried out, the brown mascara was nice and creamy. The liners had some difficulty as well. The brown liner went on easy, I found the black really hard to use on my skin and not worth using. Overall, I’d say the pallet is nice, but the rest of the kit could be better.

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!

I'm very picky about my makeup & I really like this kit. I have super dark brown eyes. I've gotten several compliments since wearing this. The mascara is really nice, too,bc it isn't clumpy. The eyeshadow is creamy, which is nice for my age since I just turned 40 bc the little ones are starting to creep in so eye shadow wants to cake on and crease.
