Virgin coconut oil for intensive moisturization. Monolaurin for skin-safe disinfection. Titanium dioxide + iron oxide pigments for added sun protection. Intense color, a beautiful blend and skincredibly kind.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Start with lighter shade: sweep onto entire lid from lashline to brow bone. Apply deeper shade as needed to contour (usually on crease, at outer third of the lid, and above lashline). Blend well.
Definitely not a budget-friendly one, but given its long list of good benefits to our skin plus the quality of the pigment itself, I think we're just paying it right. 1490Php for an eyeshadow duo, that is astoundingly expensive, way more expensive than Mac but for those people who are very reactive with chemicals that are used in conventional eyeshadows, this will be their best shot. This is the first time I heard of an eyeshadow with skin care benefits. Vmv had included some magical potions to keep our eyelids fresh and healthy. So we're not just plainly adding pigment to it, we're also feeding it good nutrients to further nourish and enhance our eyelids.
24 duo shades to choose from, I got the shade in Chalet. The lighter one is a white shimmering pearl while the other one is kinda unique in color. The darker shadow is more of a burgundy shade but definitely has deep chocolate brown and slight purplish sprinkle to it. It has some shimmers but barely noticeable.
Blends easily, highly pigmented, long-wearing and not too powdery, this is definitely a great buy. But there are also tons of choices of eyeshadows that works perfectly fine as Two True Hues that are way cheaper. So it depends whether you like some added skin care benefits to your eyeshadows or you may not need any of it and a plain eyeshadow would do just fine. :)
