FAQs

What does 'Ombres Marines' represent?

'Ombres Marines' is a color universe inspired by nature, specifically evoking the deep, rich, and enigmatic shades found in the ocean's depths.

How do I use the different finishes (matte, satin, shimmering)?

The matte finish is ideal for base or crease definition, the satin finish for the eyelid, and the shimmering finish for added highlight or a touch of glamour. They can be used individually or layered for complex looks.

Is the eyeshadow case refillable?

Yes, the eye shadow case is designed to be refilled. Once a quartet is finished, you can simply remove the powder pan and replace it with a new refill quartet (sold separately).

Can I use my own brushes with this eyeshadow?

Absolutely. While it includes a lacquered wood applicator, you can use your preferred makeup brushes or even your fingertips for application and blending, achieving different effects based on the tool used.

How long does the eyeshadow typically last on the eyes?

Thanks to its silky texture and oil-infused formula, the eyeshadow is designed for long-lasting wear with a natural finish. Performance may vary based on individual skin type and application method.

What is the percentage of natural ingredients in the eyeshadow?

The eyeshadow quartets are composed of 98% natural ingredients.

How should I clean the included applicator brush?

You can clean the lacquered wood brush with a mild soap and water solution or a dedicated brush cleaner. Ensure it is completely dry before storing or using it again.

Troubleshooting

Eyeshadow appears patchy upon application.

Ensure eyelids are clean and free of oily residue. Apply a thin layer of eyeshadow primer beforehand. Try applying with a damp brush for more intense color payoff and smoother application.

Shimmer particles are falling onto the under-eye area.

Apply a glitter glue or a sticky eyeshadow base before applying the shimmering shade. Alternatively, apply the shimmering shade last and gently sweep away fallout with a clean brush or tape.

The product seems to have lost its blendability.

The surface of the eyeshadow might be 'pan-coated' due to oils. Gently scrape off the top layer with a clean, dry edge (like a spatula or the edge of a card) to expose fresh powder. Ensure the lid is closed tightly when not in use to prevent drying.

Colors do not appear as vibrant as expected.

Build up the color gradually by applying thin layers. For increased intensity, consider using a white or neutral eyeshadow primer underneath, or lightly mist your eyeshadow brush with a setting spray before dipping into the product.
