#ASH AND EMBER EYE SOOT SWATCHES CRACK#

And unlike traditional pressed eye shadows, you don't have to be delicate with your Eye Soots as the product can't crack or shatter. With either fingertips or brushes, apply vertical pressure think pressing, rather than just swiping. The color transfers and applies much better this way. As these are unusual products unlike anything else, and they have a totally different texture than shadows and liners you may be used to, you will want to pick up the color differently too. The packaging gently guides you toward the best way to use your Eye Soot: though you might be used to swiping horizontally, Eye Soots should be picked up with vertical pressure instead. Though it may surprise you when you open your first jar, this is by design.

You might notice that the opening of the jars seems small compared to what you may expect from a standard eye shadow or gel liner. The colors will maintain their vibrancy and stay where applied for a remarkably long time. No wax in the formulas also means that they will not melt with the warmth of your skin, making them highly resistant to creasing and fading.

All of this must be done by hand as they don't contain any waxes, so they cannot simply be melted and poured into their jars like a standard cream shadow or liner. The secret is in how they are mixed and filled, using artistry and technique that creates their unique texture. Instead, they are a carefully balanced, extremely minimal formulation based on just natural pigment and a touch of oil. These beautiful pots of color can be used as a liner, a shadow or a primer, but they are not formulated like any of those. Unique to Rituel de Fille, Ash and Ember Eye Soots are dense, extraordinarily pigmented, long-wearing eye colors with a texture between a powder and cream.
