Medusa Makeup Eye Dusts are definitely my favorite product from this brand, when I first ordered from them I got the Electro Eye Shadow Collection (as shown in a previous review) and two of the Eye Dusts to try them out; Big Bird and Purple Rain which I feel in love with especially with Big Bird since it’s really a great vibrant pigmented yellow color true to the name and it applied smooth and opaque. So from there I knew I needed to have the whole set which I ended up picking up.
At the time when I ordered the Eye Dust collection it actually came with the Neon Pink acrylic 48 hole lightning bolt stand (as pictured) which I really love since it makes for easy storage and keeps them all organized together nicely and in a nice rainbow order so for me I personally dislike that the pink acrylic holder no longer comes with the set especially since I feel like if your purchasing the entire set the holder makes for a great incentive and better deal… plus since they’re now only selling the stand separately I think the price tag of $49.00 is a bit outrageous and perhaps overpriced…
But as far as the Eye Dusts I really love them and find that they are some of my favorite pigments, some of the colors from the set that I especially love are Purple Rain, Big Bird, Comet, Wasabe, and Cupcake.
Medusa Makeup Eye Dusts can be applied to the eyes, lips and face. And is $7.00 each for 1.5 grams net wt.
The packaging on these are as to be expected in comparison to other brand pigments, they come in clear round acrylic screw top jars with the company name printed on the top and on the bottom a sticker showing the name of the shade along with ingredients. They do not come with sifters which may be a downside but I actually prefer not having the sifters since I can get to the product easier but for those of you that prefer them they do sell sifter inserts separately for $3.00 for a bag of 6.
They all have really great pigmentation and the texture is soft and smooth, these also would be best applied over a primer for a more long lasting wear and to help with any fall out which is usually a concern when working with pigments. They work great when applied wet more a more intense and opaque coverage, but either way I think they would work well for anyone looking for either a more sheered out or bold look.
