MAKE UP FOR EVER Diamond Powder

Diamond Powder combines both the pearly iridescence of Star Powder and the brightness of Glitter. It is almost entirely composed of pure synthetic mother-of-pearl. The particles are finer and literally radiate extreme brilliance as soon as they are applied.Sephora is the exclusive beauty retailer for this product.

Gorgeous shimmer
-04.23.13
The shimmer powder is so finely ground that it is amazing! I have it in 4 colors now! I recommend the glitter glue first so as to decrease any fall-off, but it is so shimmery without being blatant glitter; I've never seen anything like it.

Eye Bling

Quick Take: blends easily
Love the sparkle effect. Need to apply after eye primer or it will not stick. Put on your shadow then use your finger tip to apply where needed.

Twinkly and WONDERFUL!
-02.23.13
Quick Take: blends easily, crease resistant, fine, good quality, made in france, pretty, super sparkly!
This glitter sparkles like nothing else I've tried! A little goes a long way. IT's milled so fine and comes in charming colours. I have a few different colours myself and I tell you, they are worth the $$. You will get tons of complements each time you wear it! I sure do! PS: It's made in, France.

Adds just the right amount of sparkle to plain eye shadows without looking trashy, perfect for spicing up your everyday eye make up for a night out.

Do not buy...
-01.23.13
If you want to look like a fairy go ahead this product is for you. If you want to look like Melissa Gorga this is NOT for you (because this is not the shimmer/glitter she uses.) It is very very small and will get everywhere and then some. There are better products out there.

Very, very small
-01.14.13
Quick Take: rip off
This product is so small you may mistake it for a sample. There is no applicator, and you have to be careful when removing the plastic film so as not to spill the expensive and precious content. I expected it to be much, much larger.

Wish it had staying power
-01.13.13
Quick Take: pretty but ineffective
I love the look but I think you need crazy glue to keep this on LOL. I wish it came in a formula that helped it stay put over eyeshadow - it just falls right off. Very pretty but I have no clue how to get it to stay on over shadow.

Very, very small
-01.10.13
Quick Take: very very small
It's difficult to use. There is a small plastic cover over the holes that must be removed. It doesn't come with a brush or pad of any sort so you scramble around to find something with which to apply it. It's .07 ounce, which means VERY, VERY SMALL. Smaller than you can imagine. Looks like a sample.

Gorgeous, but expensive.
-12.08.12
Quick Take: blends easily, highly pigmented
I gave this product 4/5 stars because it is a gorgeous product, but it is a VERY VERY small amount for the price. The whole thing is the size of a quarter. Don't get me wrong, it is BEAUTIFUL, and every now and then a girls gotta splurge on something fun. I have it in the Light Mauve, which is a lavender like color. You will not find anything nearly compatible at the drug store. The sheerness but sparkle is one of a kind. Save the purchase for a day where Sephora is having a sale and you will be happy! I got it during the 20% off sale they had last month.

Beautiful!
-12.06.12
Quick Take: highly pigmented
I love a little glitter, especially when I go out for the night. I use this to pretty much double my eyeshadows - I now have a shimmery version of my favorite shades! :) The diamond powder is absolutely beautiful and the quality is excellent. The ONLY reason why I'm giving it 3 stars is because it is ridiculously expensive for the teeny tiny amount that you get. Even though I'm happy with the product and the quality is excellent, I can't help but to think that I was ripped off. :-/

Tinkerbell's PIXIDUST!
-10.13.12
Quick Take: highly pigmented, sparkly intense glamorous
I LOVE, LOVE this product! I have two in white gold and gold. It's like specks of actual diamond dust that is not overwhelming at all! It is quite beautiful, glitzy, glam and the works! It's refined glitter for those sophisticated ladies out there looking for that something extra for a special night out & holiday festivities! Do not mistaken this for an eyeshadow, because its NOT. The best way to use it, I think, would be to use your ring finger & DAB a little product (bc a little goes a long way) onto your lids in order for it to adhere over something. Therefore it's best to use a primer or some kind of eyeshadow base before applying this product. It's expensive, but well worth the money! Will be looking forward into purchasing the taupe one next! (:

Too Expensive for what you get!
-09.29.12
It's tiny... Like really tiny. Go find Jesse's Girl eye glitter at the drugstore for $3.00 and get the same, fine, glitter for so much less!!!

Finely Milled Sparkle and Shine
-09.01.12
Quick Take: age appropriate sparkles
These little babies are the finest milled sparkly glitters I have ever seen! This allows a much wider age range to wear without looking as if Tinkerbell sneezed on your face. Just light dabs with your ring finger and voila!

Glitter spills everywhere
-07.11.12
Not only did this product not stay on my eyes and end up under my eyes and all over my face even when I wore an eye primer, but even after I closed it tightly it opened up and spilled everywhere inside my purse. There's $25 I will never see again after only one use. Im sure there is a good glitter out there but this isn't it. I would never waste money on this again.

Sparkle!
-06.30.12
Quick Take: highly pigmented, sparkle
I Love this eyeshadow! It is so sparkly but it is hard to put on the eyes because it doesn't go on very well but it is so pretty. Just have to work a little harder to get it on thicker.
