VMV HYPOALLERGENICS Skintelligent Eyeshadow Duo Review:
I was excited to try out these shadows after trying the VMV HYPOALLERGENICS Lip Gloss. The shadows are really nice and the packaging is fantastic. Although I do think it's a bit pricey, and I'm sure if the packaging was scaled back (I mean, really, when I am going to put that shadow compact back into that little pouch?), it could lower the cost on this shadow duo.

The shade I have, Bardot, features a purple/pink tone and a navy tone. Both are very pretty and the navy shade is to die for - great on its own or as liner.

Overall, another great product from VMV HYPOALLERGENICS that I'd recommend checking out!
