Orglamix is an etsy shop filled with all natural mineral makeup. I’m pretty set when it comes to mineral powder and blushes, but I couldn’t resist the saturated kaleidoscope of their eyeshadow color range. I’m not crazy adventurous when it comes to vivid colors, so you’ll see that I didn’t veer too far from my usual brown palette, but nevertheless, the colors I chose are unique and stunning.

Let’s start with Teak, a color that falls into my modus operandi. It’s a soft cocoa brown with a touch of pink and golden shimmer that looks really rich on the lower lash line when paired with a chocolate brown eyeliner. It adds a subtle flash of sparkle to an otherwise neutral look. Perfect for day and work.

Cranberry on the otherhand is not a color I would bust out during the workweek. It’s a bold violet eyeshadow that leans red and is less brown and more purple on me than what is pictured at right (from the website). But it is undeniably beautiful and I love it for evening on my lower and upper lashlines with a black kohl liner.

Freesia is another purple eyeshadow, but it plays with blue tones rather than the reddish-brown of Cranberry. This lovely lavenderish eyeshadow gives a hologram effect when used as a wash as the cool tones frolic with the warm shimmers. When applied as a wash over the entire eyelid, it’s very pretty and unique, but in my world, best suited for evening. When I have experimented with Freesia during the day, I’ve found that a light application around on the upper and lower lash lines give a hint of color while still being work appropriate as it’s very easy to blend out.

Staying with the purple theme, Fig was another beauty that caught my eye. Fig is not so much purple but rather a brownish plum that is nicely complemented by Teak. As usual, I wear Fig as an eyeliner on the upper and lower lashlines, a look entirely suited for day wear and work.

Aside from offering fabulous colors, Orglamix eyeshadows last the day, have flexible coverage, easy blendabilty and a smooth application. I also love that Orglamix products are free of parabens, sulfates, synthetic fragrances, synthetic dyes, petro-chemicals and phthalates. The above photos are from the Orglamix website and the swatches below were taken by me in natural light.
