Good day everyone! Today I am going to review one of the Mary Kay eyeshadow palettes that a friend of mine who is a Mary Kay consultant sent to me to test out. The eyeshadow palette that I will review today is the Mary Kay Black Ice Eyeshadow Palette.

The Mary Kay eyeshadows cost less than $10 each. They are made in Canada, and they are mineral-based eyeshadows. This eyeshadow palette, the Black Ice Palette, is great for creating a smokey eye, as well as for fall and winter makeup looks.

Color: The Black Ice Eyeshadow Palette comes with four colors: A light brown shade, a white shade to use at the inner corner of the eye or underneath the brows to highlight and create contrast, a black shade (this shade is not the blackest black, but a lighter charcoal black shade), and the last shade is a silver shade, which is my personal favorite of all of these shades.

All of the shades in this palette have a lot of shimmer, except for the black shade. The black shade has a little bit of shimmer, but not nearly as much as the other shades.

Pigmentation: All of the shades in the Mary Kay Black Ice Eyeshadow Palette are very pigmented on their own, so you can wear them with or without eye primer. However, you will need to layer these eyeshadows to get the most pigmentation possible.

Long-Lasting: These eyeshadows last on my eyes all day long, even without eye primer.

Texture: The brown, white, and silver shades feel very soft to the touch, so they go onto the eye very smoothly and easily. The black shade is rougher in texture; it is not soft like the other shades, but it is not rough enough to pull or tug on the eye either. This black shade still applies fairly easily overall, but it will be a bit more work to smooth and blend out.

Packaging: The eyeshadows in this palette come in a small pan. The eyeshadows are not glued to the packaging, so make sure that you do not turn the eyeshadows upside down because they will fall out. I recommend putting these eyeshadows into a magnetic eyeshadow palette or keeping them upwards.

How The Eyeshadows In the Mary Kay Black Ice Eyeshadow Palette Look On The Eyes

The Brown Shade

This is a great fall 🍃 shade.

The White Shade

This shade can come out sheer, so you will need to layer it a few times to reach opacity. If you are only using this shade at the inner corner, then you will not need to layer it as much.

The Black Shade

This is not a very dark black shade. This color is on the light side; it is more of a charcoal black grey shade.

The Silver Shade

This is my absolute favorite shade in this eyeshadow palette. This shade is simply stunning!💞

Final Thoughts

Since the weather 🌅 is about to change and summer is coming, I find myself going away from smokey makeup looks and dark eyeshadow colors. Once winter comes again though, I will definitely reach for this palette a lot, especially the brown and silver shades, which really call out to me 💖.

When it comes to the formula in the Mary Kay Black Ice Eyeshadow Palette, I love that these eyeshadows are mineral-based. I love the shimmer and the pigmentation. I feel that the quality of these eyeshadows is very good. If I had to choose one con for this eyeshadow palette, it would be that the black shade is not dark black. I like black eyeshadows to be very dark, not a charcoal grey. All in all though, I like how all of these eyeshadows look on me and I can see myself using them a lot.

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!
