MAKE Beauty Review: Matte Finish Eyeshadow + Silk Cream Lipstick

Today I'm reviewing some product samples from MAKE Beauty, a beauty and skincare brand based right out of NYC! In this review I'll be covering two of their bestselling products: their silk cream lipstick and matte finish eyeshadow. Details ahead!

MAKE Beauty is an NYC-based beauty and skincare brand that promises to deliver paraben-free, hypoallergenic, safe-to-use products for every look and style. Additionally, they never test on animals and send 10% of their profits to the We See Beauty Foundation, a nonprofit organization that aims to help women-led businesses throughout America.

I was sent two mini samples of MAKE products to review: their silk cream lipstick in "Taffy" and their their matte finish eyeshadow in "Alabaster." Both sample products came in a simple, minimalistic bag and were well-packaged to ensure safe delivery.

I received the products in small sample-sized packages, but you can find the full-sized versions sold on their site. The lipstick and the eyeshadow both sell for $25 each, and each product also comes in a huge range of other shades and tints! 

The silk cream lipstick from MAKE comes in nearly 20 shades, featuring a combination of ingredients that provides both vivid color and intense moisturization. Formulated with natural ingredients such as aloe and chamomille extracts to nourish lips and antioxidants, rosehip, and safflower oils for extra protection, this lipstick is meant not to dry out your lips, but to enhance them.

The "Taffy" color is a medium pink shade with a touch of maroon, subtle enough for everyday wear as part of a natural look, yet also perfect for more extravagant look. The lipstick is true to its claims, very creamy and pigmented at the same time. It's not drying at all, though it definitely looks better when applied after lip primer.

The second sample I was sent to review is their matte finish eyeshadow, offered in 34 different colors ranging from soft nude tints to bright, bold hues.

The "Alabaster" shade is described on their site as an eggshell tone with hints of peach, and it certainly fits that description. With a sort of yellowy-nude color and just a pinch of light orange undertones, it's a very subtle, natural shade that's perfect for everyday looks.

MAKE's matte finish eyeshadow is strongly pigmented and applies smoothly for a super matte look. It's also formulated with Vitamins C and E, which offer antioxidants to protect your skin. I love the velvety make of this product as well as the blend-ability of the color; it's a high-quality eyeshadow that goes on well and stays on all day!

MAKE Beauty sells tons of high-quality beauty products that not only look great, but also minimize the damage to your skin, formulated with antioxidants and natural vitamins to protect and nourish your skin. I love their minimalist-style packaging and simple, no-fuss designs, and their products do exactly what they claim to achieve. Their silk cream lipstick and matte finish eyeshadow are both highly pigmented, easy-to-use products, carried in tons of varied shades and tones to suit any occasion!
