REVIEW: MaXfactor Earth Spirits Eye Shadow in Rose Petal
MaXfactor Earth Spirits Eye Shadow Rose Petal 733: I went shopping yesterday as is evident from my yesterday’s post on IMBB 🙂 and so I thought this would be the ideal time to review this eye shadow that I picked up from maXfactor… I was out looking for a matte black shadow and so I approached the maXfactor counter… They did have a matte black but that was a part of a palette that went way beyond my budget… So the SA sensing my inner turmoil very kindly showed me these tiny “dibbis” of eye shadow with screw-on lids and I was floored… I am a sucker for cute dibbis, dabbas, containers, boxes and the like and this container looked so cute that I had to have one of these shadows 😛
So I went browsing for a nice color and finally zero-ed in on to this shade… Totally loved the candyfloss pink that it imparted and I immediately bought it!
Let me review it for you guys now…
CONTAINER
Like I said, it has the cutest container ever with a screw-on lid. It is very convenient to carry around in your handbag or even a clutch purse and it even looks cute on the dresser. Imagine having a plethora of these containers with different shades of shadows in them all lying on your dresser… Cute huh? 😉
Seriously, the container looks pretty sturdy as well and doesn’t look like it will disappoint you 🙂
COLOR & PIGMENTATION
Well, the eyeshadow has pretty high pigmentation and the texture is ultra smooth and soft. A swatch for your benefit is as follows:
Oh it doesn’t even have a tiny bit of glitter and is totally matte! I so love it for that 🙂 btw, Maxfactor has a darkest grey shade with fine glitter in it and I am so eyeing that next 😉
PRICE
This cute dibbi costed me Rs.395/- and I think it was all worth spending on it…
STAYING POWER
I put it on yesterday and went out for the evening… It stayed put all evening without even fading a bit! It has the longest staying power as compared to any other brand of eye shadow I have used.
APPLICATION
The application is simple enough. It is to be applied as you would apply any eye shadow 😉 but it gives best results when using a brush… It doesn’t have any fall-off, very very negligible actually…
HOW IT LOOKS ON THE EYE
Here’s a tiny glimpse of how it looked on my eye yesterday…
It’s the pink shade.. not the purple 😛
Oh btw, I also got a couple of samples of a new foundation maXfactor has launched called the SECOND SKIN foundation… Pics of which are here…
I’ll post a review for them as well…
Ok now to summarize lemme list out the PROs and CONs…
Pros of MaXfactor Earth Spirits Eye Shadow
- Good pigmentation
- Smooth and soft texture
- Very long staying
- Cute and sturdy container
- Zero fall-off
- Odorless

CONs of MaXfactor Earth Spirits Eye Shadow
Excepting the fact that they don’t have a matte black in this dibbi style, I can’t really think of any . 🙂
Will I purchase it again??? Oh yes… All shades that I can possible lay my hands on 😉
