Pro Makeup Tip – Our organic eye shadows can be used dry or wet. Take care to use a tiny bit of water on a small brush. Wet a corner of the shadow cake. This makes for a whole new way to use the shadow. Also, go ahead and mix with our luminizer for even more shimmer & impact.
Set yourself up for success and always start with a great primer. An eye shadow close in tone to your skin color makes for the best primer. If you tend to have oily eyelids, use our pressed mineral powder for a long lasting base. Then it will serve double duty for setting your liquid foundation or powdering your nose later in the day.
How To Apply Eye Shadow
Choose your tools carefully, because a successful eye makeup application relies on blending and always using the right brushes. Start with the lightest color and build more color upon that. Once the shadows are applied, you can move onto an eyeliner and mascara. Gently clean mistakes with a sponge or a q-tip.
Sometimes eye shadows can be dusted away with a little mineral powder. For the best application, do not use your fingers. Brushes are key to a great makeup application. If you are new to wearing eye makeup, then save a complex smokey look for when you have the time for a lesson, so you don’t get frustrated with the process.
Makeup looks easy, but it’s an art.

The Shay color is the perfect neutral-ivory base for my light skin. After applying other colors, I sometimes add a another layer of Shay on my lids and brow bone for extra pop. The color is a perfect matte, not drying, stays well and is buildable.
This is a new basic for me. I was having trouble finding a non-toxic, soft matte, well-pigmented shadow to replace my lightest MAC eyeshadow and this is the winner.

Although these eyeshadows are hugely pigmented with an outstanding colour payoff, I was really disappointed with the colours. None of the 3 shades I bought reflect the online colour description and swatches.
1) Edie is described as a ‘deepest shade of twinkling Black, but this is not the blackest black out there and the online swatch shows a completely matte colour. Ok, the description says ‘twinkling’ but in reality you have chunks of glitter that look garrish and make the shadow unsuitable for smoking out.
2) Endora is described as ‘a twinkling shade of Aqua’ – the online swatch shows a cool blue aqua, but in reality it’s a green aqua. The twinkle here isn’t glittery anymore, but a sheen.
3) Nikki – this one is my favourite and is the closest to the description, though again not matching the online swatches. But at least it’s not as far off as the previous two colours.
Since each eyeshadow was $24 I did a lot of research before ordering to see how the colours actually look in swatches, both on the hushdotti website and instagram and they’re nothing like that. I also paid to have these delivered to the UK and paid a $26 customs tax on top, so you can understand my disappointment.

Truly 5/5 eyeshadow. Can’t find cons. The powder has 9 strong colors and easy to apply. Also is pressed well. Would suggest anyone to try it out~

I love H&D’s eye shadows! They are long lasting, don’t crease, and the colors are great.

I was looking to replace a neutral cream-colored eye shadow and this is perfect. I really love the color and texture, goes on smoothly and lasts all day with no creasing or fading.

I bought the Frida. It really is a nice copper shade with a bint of shimmer. Totally appropriate for day-time wear or a nice out if you make it heavier. Also looks good on darker skin (I wear the Coco Ono foundation shade).

Beautiful Colors that look natural and stay on!

Gidge eye shadow – you make me smile. Builds beautifully to your desired look. I have been wearing this color with a couple coats of mascara and the shadow still looked fresh after my yoga class…that says something! Look forward to future purchases.

Lighter than I expected but a great undertone
Aimee R. verified buyer
Absolutely love!!!! It is SO pigmented. I love that. A lot of organic eye shadows aren’t and you have to layer and blend but not this one!!! Couldn’t be more happy with this purchase. The eyeshadows alone will keep my business with Hush + Dotti.
Jennifer S. verified buyer
Purchased Roxxy and love it! Looks paler than I expected in the pot, but absolutely perfect when applied. It is matte like noted and is a nice light pink that doesn’t look childish. Goes on smooth and blends very well!

The eye shadow is awesome and I really like all the colors that I have bought. They are lightweight and easy to blend.

Powder is a little too loose for my liking, but otherwise nice.

I have very oily lids and it doesn’t matter with this shadow. It lasts all day and doesn’t crease. Love it!
Shelley H. verified buyer
I got the coppery shade (Frida?) to try. This is a great product. It stays on well which has been a problem for me in the past with other eye shadow. It has a very nice texture. I plan on gradually switching out all my eye shadow for this Hush+Dotti shadow. It’s so nice to be toxin free.

Great pigmentation!

This color is so beautiful! It’s a light shimmery copper/brown. I was hesitant to buy at first as I thought it might be too dark on my light skin, but it’s not at all! I wish I would have bought it sooner – it’s definitely my fav now and a good everyday color. Looks great paired with the Sandy’s tawny brown cheek tint and Gabs lipstick.

This is a beautiful, deep blue that I have been using as a liner. The color is saturated and intense and stays on well.

Perfect Smokey eye color. Also tried it as Eyeliner and it was devine

Beautiful formula, beautiful color. I am no make-up artist, but I found these to be high performance—soft, blendable. Much better than other natural brands I have tried! Looking forward to trying more colors!
