Captive Aura Review

I was contacted on my Makeup Junkie FB Blog inquiring whether I would do a review of some Captive Aura mineral shadow pigments.  I was sent 6 sample baggies, each with 1/8 teaspoon of pigment and three 5 gram jars, each loaded with pigment.

Top Row:  Left to Right:  Foggy Dawn, Flowers at Dusk, Heat Lightening
Bottom Row:  Left to Right:  Desolate Eden, Flora, and Butterfly Garden

This swatch is the same colors as noted above but after using a brush to blend to see how much color sweeps away.  They did blend pretty good but Foggy Dawn blended away a bit more than the others did.

These are the full sized jars.  Left to Right:  Leviathan's Eye, Meteor Shower, and Rose Garden.  All three of these are really pretty. Rose Garden is super bright and very highly pigmented.  Meteor Shower is a very pigmented pigmented black with multicolored glitter.  Leviathan's Eye is a pretty lavender.

This last pic is post blending brush.  You can see that Leviathan's Eye blended almost entirely away as did Meteor Shower.  Rose Garden did much better with leaving color behind.  I did not blend very much to lose the color off of my arm.
