Jillian Dempsey Professional Eye Smokifier by Avon

This is a new, but also Limited Edition product by Avon. It's normal retail price is R99.95.
This product promises high pigment color which can be built up to the desired effect you want.
The applicator is very dainty, which makes for precision lining around the eyes. How long it will last though, remains to be seen. The packaging is beautiful and the end result did not look bad at all.
That being said, it is the third time I am using it today. I wore it three days in a row to see how one can get the best results from it.
The shadow, though high pigmented, isn't easy to smudge with the finger. When creating smokey eyes, it sometimes is necessary to be able to smudge a color with the fingers (unless you're a professional make-up artist). It is impossible to create a look with a lighter shade and then gradually build up to the corner of the eye. Unless you like having one black blob (I used the black one) on your eye, you will have to incorporate another color when creating your smokey eye.
Luckily, I had a dark grey color already, so it was easy for me to create the desired effect, but if you only want to make use of this one product, you may end up with a very one dimensional look.
The product is currently on special @ R69.95, so if you're interested, contact your nearest Avon rep immediately.
