Just a few weeks ago, I posted a photo of Black Radiance Eyeshadow palette on my Instagram account. I’ve seen this brand for quite sometime now but I never really paid much attention to it.

However, I was intrigued by this eyeshadow as it looks very similar to the Wet n Wild Color Icon Eye Shadow Collection.  

Now, let me show you what I’m talking about.

Black Radiance EYE APPEAL SHADOW COLLECTION comes in eight gorgeous shades and are very pigmented too. I picked up this Downtown Browns palette because I find it very useful for an everyday look. It comes in neutrals, dark and some shimmers as well.

“Black Radiance® empowers and inspires women of color through beauty.We recognize and understand the needs across a diverse range of ethnic skin tones. By combining high style with the latest technology, Black Radiance® offers a variety of sheer to vivid lip and eye color, plus, exclusively formulated face cosmetics that meet the distinct needs of her skin type and not just skin color.”

Here are some swatches.. 🙂

 If you like the pigmentation of the Wet n Wild’s eyeshadow collection then you will love this for sure.This eyeshadow is very smooth, super silky and you can mix and match to create a different looks or you can even use it just by itself.

Another thing that I discovered about this brand is that they are both distributed by Markwins Beauty Products, Inc. and that’s probably the reason why they look very much alike.

Now, what’s my verdict on this Black Radiance Eye Appeal Shadow Collection?

• The pigmentation and shade options are great!
• Price wise, I will purchase the Wet n Wild eyeshadow palette since both are similar in almost all aspects though Wet n Wild is much cheaper.
• But all in all, I’m pleased with this purchase.

well…That’s it! 🙂

Until next time…
