Pixi Holiday Lid Last Shadow Pen Duo

it decided to POUR rain this morning, so we weren't able to have our horseback riding lesson this morning... which means no show this weekend! i'm a bit bummed, but that's how life goes. i guess it will be 2013 before i debut my pink saddle pad :D

today i have photos and swatches for the Pixi Holiday Lid Last Shadow Pen Duo! i was planning on posting them along with the Early Bird palette... but that turned out to be loads more photos than i had anticipated. so, tomorrow's post will be Early Bird :)

this duo comes with Shell Sheen and Brun Beam. Shell Sheen is a light pink that is slightly shimmery, but not in a glittery, coarse way... sheen really is a great description! Brun Beam is a dark brown, it makes me think of black coffee. both are creamy and easy to apply! you can use these by themselves or as a base for eye shadow, they dry down to a powdery finish. they are free of parabens, triclosan, sulfates and pthalates; but, they have Vitamin E in them to help protect your lids!

this is the packaging...

and the pens themselves!

and finally, the swatches :)

the Pixi Lid Last Shadow Pen Duo retails for $12 and can be found at Target stores and Target.com, and also PixiBeaty.com!

i hope everyone is having a fantastic week! Ria :)
