I had never heard Cailyn Just Mineral
Eye Polish, either the brand or the product, prior to receiving it in
Ipsy. It is a powder mineral eyeshadow that is self-contained in
what looks kind of like a plastic nail polish bottle. When you
unscrew it, it has its own sponge applicator where the brush would be
in nail polish. (I was really surprised the first time I tried this
to find out that the sponge applicator is black.)
I found that this applies really well
for a loose powder eyeshadow, and I think the packaging is a major
help with that. If you start the application process by patting it
onto the lids, I find I can follow by sweeping, all with minimal
fallout. To get the coverage I prefer for an all-over-the-lid look,
I usually need two dips of the applicator per eye. I have found
that, when I re-dip the applicator into the container, I have the
best results when I fully screw it back in and gently shake it.
This is a shimmery, light pinky violet
color that I find easy to wear as a single color with some eyeliner
and mascara. I haven't had the chance yet to try it in too many
combinations, but the little I did, it seemed to blend fairly well.
I think this could also make an interesting accent shade to add some
shine to a look.
Overall, I'm pretty pleased with this
product. I do need to work with it more, but I find it easier to
work with than most loose eyeshadows. The applicator is a little
awkward, though, since I find I have to dip multiple times.
