FAQs

Is the formula cruelty-free?

Yes, Chantecaille is committed to cruelty-free practices and does not test on animals.

Does this eyeshadow crease?

The formula is designed for a lightweight, skin-melting finish; however, using an eyelid primer is recommended if you have naturally oily lids to prevent creasing.

Can this be used as a highlighter?

Due to its pearlescent and shimmery finish, Selenkay can certainly be used as a subtle highlighter on the high points of the cheeks.

How does this support lion conservation?

A portion of the proceeds from the Lion Collection is donated to the Lion Guardians, a group dedicated to protecting lions in Kenya.

What is the best way to apply this shadow?

A soft, fluffy brush is best for a sheer wash, while a flat brush or fingertip is ideal for building intensity.

Troubleshooting

Shadow appears too subtle on the eyelid

Use a damp synthetic brush to pack the product onto the lid for more concentrated pigment payoff.

Fallout during application

Tap off excess powder from the brush before application, or apply the eyeshadow before your foundation to easily wipe away any stray shimmer.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, start with a clean, primed eyelid to ensure the pearlescent pigments adhere properly. The shadow is compatible with both cream and powder-based primers. To maintain the integrity of the finely milled powder, store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. When cleaning your brushes, ensure they are completely dry before picking up the powder to avoid hardening the surface of the shadow.
