Hello everyone! It has been a little while since I did an eyeshadow review, so today, I will review a dual eyeshadow by the Korean brand A’PIEU. This is their Mineral Mono Dual-Color Eyeshadow Palette.

Cost: $4.50 – $6.00, depending on where you buy it.

Amount of Product: You get 1 gram of each eyeshadow.

This dual eyeshadow palette is made in Korea.

Shades: A’Pieu has 20 dual eyeshadows available. I purchased #10 Tiramisu Time.

A’PIEU has several dual-color eyeshadows in this line that range from mattes, shimmers, to glitters. The brand states that these eyeshadows can also be used as highlighters.

Ingredients: Each eyeshadow will have a slightly different formula, but the A’PIEU eyeshadows in this Mineral Mono Eyeshadow Line are mineral-based, so they contain healing ingredients including beeswax, sal tree seed butter, coconut oil, macadamia seed oil, castor oil, and aloe vera leaf extract.

How Do These Eyeshadows Look On The Eyes?

Dark Coffee Brown Espresso Shade

This is a matte dark coffee brown espresso shade that is very pigmented in just one swatch. This eyeshadow applied easily and smoothly with a makeup brush, but you can also apply it with your fingers.

Yellow Gold Shade

This eyeshadow is a soft yellow gold glitter shade. Unlike the dark brown shade above, this eyeshadow did not apply well with a brush, so I had to use my fingers to apply it. However, it was very easy and quick to apply using my fingers.

This eyeshadow has some fallout because of the glitter particles in it, and you do need to use an eye primer with it because it is not very pigmented alone. However, even with an eye primer, several layers are still needed to get good pigmentation with this eyeshadow. Compared to most glitter and shimmer eyeshadows, this one is not as pigmented.

Hypoallergenic for Sensitive Eyes: Neither of these eyeshadows irritated my eyes, so this is good. Sometimes glitter eyeshadows will irritate the eyes if the glitter particles are too big and not refined enough, so the fact that this glitter eyeshadow did not bother me, is a good sign about the formula.

Final Thoughts

Both of these eyeshadows are soft gentle colors. They are pigmented, but they are more natural colors that you can wear on a daily basis or in the workplace. They are soft enough that they would appeal to Japanese women, as well as those into natural makeup styles.

Both eyeshadows are easy to apply, the price point is great, and the formula is mineral-based, so these eyeshadows are great for those with sensitive eyes. Considering the price, the formula, and the fact that you get two eyeshadows, I think that these eyeshadows are of good quality. I plan to check out more A’PIEU cosmetics in the future!

DL's Health & Beauty

Enter the realm of health, wellness, beauty, makeup, and fashion. The world is full of so many different forms of beauty. Every culture has its own unique beauty, but one thing that all of them have in common is that healthy is always beautiful. But health is not constant or instant in life. Health is part of the life journey that we are all on until our time is up.

We all have a unique health journey. My health journey started in college when I studied human health and disease at The University of The District of Columbia. Later, I studied health and psychology at The University of Maryland University College. After college, I continued following medical breakthroughs around the world, from India to the UK. I soon realized that there was so much health knowledge out there, but so few people had access to it. Thus, I turned to writing. My goal is to share valuable health breakthroughs with the world and connect health to beauty and multiculturalism; that is how this site came to life.

Wherever you are in your health and wellness journey, there is always more to learn and there is beauty to be found everywhere in various forms. So, let's walk this path together and discover fully what the realm of health and beauty has to offer!
