The Though Occurred to us..

there have been so many people asking "What are Foils?" We will be creating a video on Foilers and what they do and how to create that stunning look on your eyes! but until then we will try to explain it in Text form.

FOILERS!- Any of A-FaM's Glimmery Eyeshadows can be used as a foiler, now when we speak of foilers think of aluminium foil.. how shiny it is, the reflections it creates. This holds true with our glimmer eyeshadows!

Now, here is where you decide how you want to create the look...
A-FaM has a mixing medium which hydrates your eyes all day long! We have specially formulated it to make sure it is safe, and actually serves more than the foiling purpose! Now, some people use regular tap water, which we don't recommend this! and here is why, our eyeshadows don't have harsh chemicals in it, (unlike commercial brands) our eyeshadows last for up to 5 years! but adding water to your brush when creating a foil presents the harsh reality that you are introducing bacteria into the mix, not to mention, you are introducing bacteria onto your eyes! MAJOR HAZARD! So, it is our responsibility to inform you to not do this! So, once again we only recommend using our mixing medium, now with that said, lets continue!

get your glimmer eyeshadow, whether it be loose power form, pressed powder form or whatever.
Get the mixing medium, shake it well, to get the ingredients to mix up in the bottle.
pour a little bit on your brush (saturate it!) a little bit goes a long way!

Get your eyeshadow of choice, if it is a loose powder, which this works the best, sprinkle a little bit in the lid, get your brush and mix it up, you will see the dust liquefy a bit then apply it like a normal eyeshadow! and you can see the difference between regular glimmer eyeshadows compared to when they are foiled! No one can get over how well the POP!
another plus side to this is your foiled eyeshadow will last ALL DAY!!! Now that to me is wonderful! Don't you hate that creased look?!
