Scarab sapphire review

So firstly this colour "Scarab sapphire" is stunning. It has a deep blue with an undertone of purple. Almost microglittlers when you see it applied. The creamy and  soft pencil gives a clean and comfortable application. It applies to the waterline really well and is a beautiful colour payoff. 

There are pictures showing the pencils can be buffed out, then apply eyeshadow on top. I would love to try blending out the colour to look beautiful, especially with a taupe, silver and grey. This would be  a lovely duo chrome effect, as its so jewel toned that you won't need to use a shimmer. Plus with it being blended it can be used during the day, with neutral eyeshadow shades on top. The pop of fall colour will come through with this beautiful jewel base. 

 I have used the goddess pencil in the waterline for my look. I feel it makes the blue hues in the eyeshadow really stand out. The goddess line of eye pencils are so impressive, if you struggle to find sensitive eyeliner then look no further. I love the goddess pencils that i own and i cannot wait for the eyeshadow palettes to come to the UK. Its the most exciting makeup line, i look forward to new items coming out as the quality is exquisite. The natural makeup from Eye of Horus is excellent and i do encourage anyone looking for a natural line to try them.

Packaging : 

So the packaging for Eye of Horus products is beautiful. Comes wrapped in a black bag with embossed hyroglifics down the middle. The paper inside also is black with gold logos and writing printed. 

Goddess pencil consistency :

Is an extremely smooth and creamy pencil which is paraben, cruelty free using only natural ingredients. Made up of Moringa oils and natural ingredients, perfect if your on the look for sensitive friendly cosmetics. I didn't need to warm the pencil to do my swatch, it was a simple back and forward motion. It did not pull nor cause skin irritation, plus extremely pigmented.

Lazuli blue review ;

The pencil is extremely pigmented. I would say its a beautiful jewelled light blue. It comes with a smudger which gives a duel purpose, to be used as a shadow or an eyeliner. I would advise to do an eye at a time, if you wish to use as a shadow. I used brushes, as they were more gentle for eye smudging. I found the colour was beautiful for under the eye, to highlight the natural colour. I love the pencils as they are stunning colours. They are perfect for the waterline and don't move. Most pencils in my experience need reapplication, due to gradual fading in the day. The Eye if Horus products do not need reapplication.  *(It my personal preference as I find sponges drag no matter how soft.)
