Today we are going to take a look at Anna Sui's "Eye Color Crayon's" which are basically a self sharpening eye colour that will add shimmer and dimension to any eye look. These eye crayons are created with a "STAY FIT OIL" so they wear seamlessly all day.
The first colour is 900- This is a nice aquatic blue with a gorgeous shimmer sure to make the eyes pop. You can wear this alone or with your favorite eyeshadow combination.

It almost looks more minty under the light, but I assure you it's a richer blue as you will see in the next picture
This is definitely a great colour for those warm sunny days at the beach. If you like to wear a bit of colour to the beach you can wear it confidently knowing it will stay on even if you go in the water.
The next colour is more dramatic and will work great for a late night out dancing and give you that sexy smokey glimmer to the eye. This is #002
This colour has some what of a duochrome finish. It appears black, but the flash is an inky purple tone that is quite nice because it's a step up from the norm of just the basic black kohl look.
The only downside to these color crayons is when its time to take it off you will notice significant shimmer left behind on the skin. You may have to work at it a little more to get it all off.
However for the lover of all things shimmer I do recommend these as they do have nice colour payoff and the staying power is excellent. Also the colour selection itself is decent.
You get 1.5g/.05oz for between $20-30 depending on where you shop.
Next up is the "DOUBLE EYE COLOR." This is a dual ended pen style product that offers two complimentary eye shadows in a travel friendly application. You can blend, define and line with this product and give your eyes beautiful washes of colour.
As you can see these colours are bright and richly pigmented. The one pen comes with the pink and pearl white and the other is the yellow and mint.
The mint colour has quickly become a favorite of mine and seems to apply the easiest out of all the colours. All though the pink swatched well I find it a challenge to apply to the eye and get the colour amped up.
The mint colour reminds me of a softer version of NARS larger than life eyeliner called "Barrow Street."
However for the amount that you pay there is very little product in these duo's coming in at a mere
0.8g/.02oz and your looking at $30-35 OUCH! big price, small amount of product. Don't get me wrong the colours are lovely and if your in a position to purchase these then go for it, I for one would not pay that for any eyeliner or shadow especially when you don't get much and there are so many equally great products out there for a fraction of the price.
So I hope you discovered a product here today that you may want to try and I hope your all enjoying the beginning's of your summer. Thanks for reading.
Stay tuned as part 3 of my Anna Sui haul continues with Lip products coming soon to
