Almay Intense I-Color Eye Shadow Trio for Greens - Product Review

A. Kairi
I went through my makeup case a few weeks ago and was bored by its contents. I, like many people, had slipped into the habit of buying mostly the same colors of cosmetics. Therefore, the next time I went shopping I decided I wanted to try something different. It did not take long for Almay intense i-color eye shadow to catch my attention.

Almay intense i-color eye shadow comes with three colors per palette and there is an Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for green eyes, blue eyes, brown eyes and hazel eyes. I was a little disappointed that the choice of palettes was limited to four.

My eyes are a very deep green with a just few flecks of brown so I felt like my eye color fell between the Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio choices since hazel is a very broad, if not vague definition of eye color that doesn't really fit me.

I ultimately chose Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens since that is my dominant eye color. The Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens contains three vivid and quite bold colors including a bright yet pale green, deep hunter green and an almost smoky purple color best described as amethyst. The Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens compact also came with optional instructions for using the trio to complement green eyes.

I initially followed the instructions that came with the Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens. I used the pale green as an all over color, the amethyst near my lash line and lower eyelid and the deep hunter green in the crease of my eyelid.

I was absolutely stunned by the effect I achieved with the Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens. I liked it a lot, but it is not something I would have come up with on my own. The effect of the Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens went beyond "intense". The overall look was stunning, but Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens is not for the faint of heart and certainly not for someone who prefers to be reserved with cosmetics.

However, the results I got with Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens were very pretty. If you like dramatic make-up that will bring a lot of attention to your eyes then you will probably enjoy Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens.

I also noticed immediately that Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens lived up to its promise of really bringing out the green in my eyes. Since my eyes are a very dark green and I wear eyeglasses people often think that my eyes are brown. The first day that I wore Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens to a party a few of my friends said things like: "wow! Your eyes are really green! I never noticed before."

Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens costs about 7.00 per compact depending on where you purchase it and weighs .13 ounces. Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens is a bit more expensive than the average eye shadow compact, but I discovered that the Almay intense i-color eye shadow is quite concentrated. So much so, that it is very easy to apply too much if you are not careful. I feel that this makes Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens an excellent value.

I was also impressed by how long lasting Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens was after I applied it. Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens stayed put all day without smudging or creasing yet came off easily with a little bit of cleanser and a washcloth.

Overall, I liked Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens very much. I do not often wear all three colors of eye shadow the way the instructions Almay included say to, I tend to mix and match with other colors of eye shadow to tone the effect down a little while still bringing out the green in my eyes.

I will definitely buy Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for greens again and may even buy the Almay intense i-color eye shadow trio for hazel eyes also and mix and match those colors with the trio for greens eye shadow to see if I can come up with something just right for my eye color.

I recommend Almay intense i-color trio for greens eye shadow to anyone looking for a "glam" or "high drama" look and to anyone looking for eye shadow that will bring out the green in their eyes.
