I was presented with the opportunity to review 2 of NVEY Eco's organic eyeshadow shades and brushes below. I love the concept behind their cosmetics brand. However I'm not a fan just yet based on the products I received. Dare I challenge their statement "NVEY ECO explodes the myth that going green reduces the performance and application of make-up." 

*Rose Gold #168 ( Retail Price $29.85) -  The shadow doesn't appear rose or gold. It actually appears as a light shimmery creme color. I would use it as a highlight underneath my brow. I would rate this product 6 out of 10. I don't love but at the same time I don't hate it.

*Black Gold #170 (Retail Price $29.85) - I was excited when I read the label but disappointed with this shade entirely. I felt deceived again as I did with Rose Gold. It appears on my skin as a washed-out gray and not pigmented at all. It has specks of gold within the shadow which gives the gray a shimmer effect. I imagined a bold black shadow with a hints of gold . NVEY definitely missed the mark and did not come close to "exploding" the performance myth with this shade. It actually did the complete opposite. I rate this shade a 2 out of 10.

 *Powder Brush ( Retail Price $55.00) - This brush is a keeper. The brush handle was made using a special corn resin. The cruelty-free brush hairs are made of fine and soft synthetic fibres. It's extremely soft and great for applying finishing powder.

*Large Eyeshadow Brush ( Retail Price $29.85)- Created just like the powder brush, this brush is so soft and gentle on the eyes. The bristles are just a tad bit too long and seems more like a blending brush  when applying shadow. If you have extremely large lids, add this brush to your arsenal.
