What you will need,
- Shea Butter
- Arrowroot powder (Cornstarch can be used as an alternative)
- Turmeric (Optional)
- Allspice (Optional)
- Dry beet powder (Optional)
- Nutmeg (Optional)
A step-by-step guide to make your natural Eye-shadow
- Take a small bowl and add a half tablespoon of arrowroot powder into it. You can slightly increase the quantity of arrowroot powder if you want a darker shade Eye-shadow. Next, you need to add a half tablespoon of Shea butter and other ingredients (powders) depending on which Eye-shadow color you want to have.
- For instance, if you want to have a light brown shade of eye shadow, you need to mix ½ tablespoon of arrowroot powder and ½ to ¼ tablespoon of Shea butter with ¾ tablespoon of cocoa powder only. And for Mauve shade, you will need to further add ¾ tablespoon of both allspice and dry beetroot powder.
- Make sure the powder you use is very fine so it can blend well with Shea butter forming a creamy texture. Mix all ingredients in the bowl properly and ensure there are no lumps at all. Use the back of a spoon for mixing process.
- Once the creamy mixture of Eye-shadow is ready, store it in a airtight small container. You can apply this 100% natural and homemade Eye-shadow like any off-the-shelf Eye-shadow out there.
