Primary Benefits of Motives® Pressed Eye Shadow:
Key Ingredients Found in Motives® Pressed Eye Shadow:
Ascorbyl Palmitate (Vitamin C)
Ascorbyl palmitate is a stable form of vitamin C that has similar vitamin C activity to ascorbic acid. Vitamin C is an important antioxidant vitamin that is essential for maintaining your skin’s natural collagen. By supporting your skin’s natural collagen, vitamin C helps your skin achieve a firmer, suppler and more youthful glow.
Boron Nitride
Boron nitride is a compound of the mineral boron and is used in cosmetics for its ability to help disguise fine lines. Boron nitride gives powders their soft texture and helps them wear longer. The gentleness of the mineral makes it ideal for use on sensitive skin.
Dimethicone
A silicone based polymer, dimethicone acts as a skin conditioning agent to slow water loss from the skin by forming a barrier on the skin’s surface. Dimethicone is also well known for its flow properties, which enhance the smooth application of personal care products.
Ethylhexyl Palmitate
Ethylhexyl palmitate is produced from palmitic acid, a naturally-occurring fatty acid found in plants and animals. It acts as a lubricant on the skin’s surface, giving the skin a soft and smooth appearance.
Lonicera caprifolium (Honeysuckle) and Lonicera japonica (Japanese Honeysuckle) Flower Extracts
Honeysuckle flower extracts are rich in saponins and flavonoids, especially luteolin. These natural plant-derived ingredients have antioxidant properties that might help protect and soothe the skin.
Tocopherol (Vitamin E)
Vitamin E is a powerful natural antioxidant vitamin that helps to protect and nourish your skin. Vitamin E helps to moisturize your skin while also protecting it from environmental factors, giving your skin a healthy and more youthful appearance.

These colors are absolutely the best! You can go from natural to dramatic to classic with the colors available through this line. I put my eyemake-up on at 6:00 am and it looks just as fresh at 9:00 pm when I wash it off for bed without a single touch-up during the day. I bought a purse kit of brushes to touch up my make-up on the go - I only need to reapply my lipstick throughout the day. As a woman who never wore make-up before (seriously!) except for dress-up events, I now don't leave the house without it because I just love the way it makes me feel and look!

This eyeshadow is a great, intense turquoise-blue, but the glitter in it flakes off onto your face, and gets everywhere. After I used tape to get all of the glitter off my nose and face, I was pleased with the eyeshadow--and it does last all night long, with no creasing.

I like how the heavy metal can go with any color eyeshadow. You can actually create a natural smokey colored look without it looking over done. The color also seems like it adjusts or changes depending on which color you wear underneath. One of my favorites to share with others!

I love how easy and simple these eye shadows can be applied. There all very pigmented so a little goes a long way. Beautiful colors for every skin type. Great product for the money. I love Bedroom eyes and whipped cream for my everyday look and keeping it very simple with only two colors. At night I add some Tahiti red to give it a little jazz.

These eyeshadows are wonderful. I've used a lot of 'high end' shadows, and these beat them all. The pigmentation is awesome, and you don't need much on your brush to get it to show well. They stay on all day, especially if you use the eye base, and they come off easily with remover.

These products are so easy to use. They go on smoothly and are light and airy. I've used other products but after I tried Motives, I wouldn't go back to the other products I use to use. Try them yourself and you'll see what I'm trying to tell you.
