Bourjois Intense Eyeshadows 03, 10 Review, Swatches


About:
Made from 87% mineral pigments, precisely measured and selected, INTENSE is highly concentrated for 2 x more coverage than a classic eyeshadow in one single application. Hypoallergenic, paraben- and fragrance-free and suitable for contact lens wearers.
Available in a wide range of 10 exclusive shades and suitable for all occasions and styles:-
The essential shades, to illuminate and sculpt the eyes (01, 02, 03, 09, 10)
The dramatic shades to intensify the eyes (04, 05, 06, 07, 08)






Packaging ~ Has really improved. In addition to the little pressable silver button, the pots are also magnetic. They close better and are less likely to get spoiled- like the old version. They are also thinner, hence fits better in your palm.

  • Bourjois Intense Extrait Eyeshadow 03 (sand rose) ~ This is so very pretty! I swatched it once and I knew I had to get it, I think it's such a fabulous color. The only downside is, like most glittery eyeshadows, it doesn't stay put & major fallout problem. However, it's a different story when it's applied with a wet brush- it clings better to the lids. I'm guessing it will work well with Inglot Duraline too.
Price ~ Rs.410

Bourjois Intense Eyeshadow 03 Swatches (dark & light)


  • Bourjois Intense Extrait Eyeshadow 10 (charcoal black) ~  One of the most pigmented, smooth and long-lasting black eyeshadows out there. It's matte, which makes it even more usable. It is even better than Stiletto from Too Faced Naked Eye Palette
Price ~ Rs.410

Bourjois Intense Eyeshadow 10 Swatches (dark & light)


I've posted this EOTD of me wearing both shades a few days back (post here). 03 looks better off camera.

Overall, Bourjois Intense Eyeshadows are awesome! Matching colored pots are uber cute, high quality eyeshadows, paraben-free...totally worth 410 bucks! Yes, now I want ALL the shades ;)  (I wish they all came in a palette though)

I ♥ finding little notes in my Vanity Case, so do drop one. I read all of them & I try my best to reply to each & every one of them [check back in 2-3 days =D] but most times it's physically impossible! Either way, I love to hear from you & really appreciate you taking the time out to share your thoughts <3

Thank you for reading! :)
