Beautiful Brown Eyeshadow

  • 1/4 tsp Base mix

To make it more shimmery use treated sericite or satin mica instead of the base mix

  • 1/4 tsp Brown oxide
  • 1/4 tsp Black satin mica
  • 1/8 tsp Oriental beige mica
  • (optional – 10 – 15 drops jojoba oil or 5 drops dimethicone/5 drops jojoba oil)

In a small zip lock bag (4×4) mix the base mix with the oxide and or pigments. Rub together shaking and rubbing until well blended. You can also use a mortar and pestle for this. A coffee grinder is too large for this small amount.

Add the mica and repeat the rubbing until blended.

Apply a small amount to your hand. If you are getting any streaking keep blending. If it is good but too dark add more sericite, too light add a timy bit of black mica. If using ‐ add 10 drops of oil or dimethicone and oil blended to the bag and rub until well mixed and is not stuck to the bag. Empty contents into a 10g sifter jar or similar. If you wish to have a compressed eye shadow fit a bottle, coin whatever fits your container and press hard, remove and now you have cake shadow.
