For my second installment of the Rock & Republic eyeshadow swatches, I chose Exile. So for a quick recap, I bought these off of Hautelook for $8.40 USD $24.00 USD each and they each come with 0.11oz/3g of product. Each eyeshadow is encased in a weighty solid plastic/metal container and are housed in black cylindrical packaging. The company logo is embossed anywhere to be found and all of the information on the product is found on the lower portion of the packaging and on the lower portion of the container. The eyeshadow flips up to reveal a mirror on the side with a plastic protective sheet covering the shadow.
The eyeshadows when swatched are very silky, smooth and glide onto the skin with much ease. Although they applied fairly pigmented dry, the colors became ever much more so prominent when applied with primer or wet.
Exile is a soft rose-gold copper base with many gold micro-shimmers. It’s a beautiful neutral shade that can be used all over the eyelid or on the inner corners and lower lid as a highlight. I’d definitely recommed this color for first time shoppers of the cosmetics line as it is very easy to work with and not much blended is required to smooth out the color. Below are swatches when applied dry, with primer and wet. Enjoy!
