Almay Intense i Color Powder Shadow Review Summary

Almay Intense i Color Powder Shadow is made specifically to bring out the color of your eyes. In formulas for green, blue, brown, and hazel eyes, this mix and match palette of colors is supposed to be a mix of the perfect shades for each eye color. Most of our reviewers like this shadow and feel it is basically goof proof. Some, however, feel that color coordinated eye shadow is juvenile and prefer to choose their own shades based on their own preferences. Those who do use Almay Intense i Color Powder Shadow like the results and feel that the shades bring out the intensity of their eyes. Looking for eyeshadow that expresses who you are? Read all of our eyeshadow reviews and find a brand that's perfect for you.

Almay Intense iColor Powder Shadowreminds me of those clothes called Garanimals.  Remember those?  They were tops and bottoms with a little animal on the tag.  If the animal on the top and the bottom match, then the kids knows that he or she has a matching set.  It helps them to figure out how to...

I have heard so many good things about Almay Intense i Color Eye Shadow that I just had to try it out for myself.  I'm a sucker for advertising and the claim to "bring out the blue" in my eyes sounded very appealing.  Who doesn't want prettier looking eyes, right?

Almay says: "Intensify your eye color with expertly coordinated, enhancing shades.  All day wear; color that won't crease or fade."

Almay Intense i Color Eye Shadow comes in two different styles: 1) "Bring out" the color of your eyes and 2) "Play Up" the color of your eyes.  Each style is available for eye colors: blue, brown, green...

This product in a nutshell: is a fabulous trio of shadows that really make my eyes POP!  The three shades are specifically designed to bring out the color of your eyes...this product does that and more.

I purchased Almay Intense I-Color Powder Shadow in the trio for hazels right before I was to be a bridesmaid in my best friend's wedding.  I wanted to get some new makeup, so I would look nice for the big day, and I was very pleased with the results!  My makeup looked like it had been professionally applied at the salon where I got my hair done.  The 3 shades of eye shadow in the compact look...

I have always been told that I have a very unique eye color. Also considering my eyes are my best facial feature, I strive to use products that compliment them. Almay has always been a favorite brand of mine and this "intense i-color" powder shadow has proved itself to stand up to the Almay quality that I count on.

First off, I will tell you that when I was young, my eyes were a defined brown. When I got into my teen years, they started changing colors, going from a dark brown to every shade of green and then even to gold. Now in my adult life, my eyes are an olive green with brown and gold specks...

I have been using the Almay Intense I color for brown eyes.  I'm pale, strawberry-blond and very sensitive.  I've had no problems using Almay's eye products.   I was worried at first that the colors would be too much for my pale self, but as long as I use a light hand with the dark brown in the crease, I'm good.  

I normally wear a pale champagne color on my eyes, but I'll pull out the Almay when I have more time to get ready.  I've found that whenever I wear the Almay colors, I get complements on my eyes.   

The applicator provided is absolutely useless.  I toss it immediately.  I...

I have very dark brown eyes and an olive skin tone (I'm Italian) and the lilac really brings out the brown and makes my eyes really pop.  The finish on my eyes is a matte finish and doesn't look pearly or shimmery.  It's just right.  Of course, I can't speak to the other eye colors...but if you have dark eyes and olive skin...try it.  And don't forget the eyeliner that goes with the eye color.  I was amazed at how well these colors looked on me...I would have never guessed!

This eye shadow from Almay is possibly the worst make-up that I have ever come across. I have extremely sensitive skin so I decided to try this product because it claims that it is prefect for people like myself. I, later, ended up regreting trying this product. From the time I put it on until the time I took it off (a few minutes later), I wanted to tear my face off. The irritation that I recieved from this product was totally unacceptable. After I finally managed to get this product off of my eyes, I spent the next few hours continuously placing cool towels on my eyes trying to get rid of the... review »

     I have purchased the Almay intense i-color powder shadow Trio for hazels.  Being a hazel, I decided to pick it up.  I'm a nut for eye makeup, so I think if your eyes don't pop, what's the point?  This certainly does as it says.  I took photos after applying it to see how effective it was. 
     I like a more natural look, so i didn't cake it on.  Also, I applied it directly on top of the foundation, so it stuck on the eyelid very well.  The trio consists of three colors: A slightly off-white, a warm grey, and a smoky cool grey.  In my application, i put the midtone (warm grey) from...

I have always been a big fan of Almay products.  They work well and are sold at a affordable price.  Almays Intense Color Powder Shadow comes in a variet y of different colors and stay on your eye lids all day long.  Unlike some eye shadows, Almay's eye shadows show up well and are easy to apply.  If you happen to get a peice in your eye, you won't have to worry about your eyes burning in pain.  What I like the most about Almay's eye shadows is they come in colors to match your shade of eye color.  I reccommend this product to anyone because it works so well and does not drain your pocket. ... review »

Almay Intense i color really worked for me and my hazel eyes. I wear glasses and found it hard to do makeup in a way that would still have my eyes 'pop'. Since I've been wearing this makeup (complete with the eyeliner and mascara) I have had so many compliments I can't believe it.

The colors are totally adaptable too. I go light during the day and darken it up a bit at night. I can be confident I can go from work to out with the girls in two minutes flat by just adding a little bit and all of a sudden have sexy sultry eyes. No redo needed!

This eyeshadow was like magic for me.

I have blue-green eyes, and most shadows make my eyes appear dull because the color is overwhelming. I use bring out the green eyeshadows, and they make my eyes pop with olive green color! Whenever I wear it, I am complimented on how much attention is drawn to my bright eyes. I can wear this blend of colors in many different ways, and they all make me feel fantastic about the way i look! It is also very simple to apply and looks great with the "raisin" colored mascara sold to complement it.

I absolutely LOVE this Almay eye intense collection it has made shopping for makeup so easy and not a headache any more!  I know nothing about how to figure out what color would look or does look good on me so now with these shadows I feel comfortable and goodwhen I put it on and go into puclic, I don't feel anyone is looking at me like I am a clown, but people actually compliment me on my makeup which is great!  Also I don't have a lot of time to put myself together so this package of what goes with what is awesome for me

I like a tinted moisturizer, some gloss, and mascara.  I hardly ever trouble with eyeshadow, mainly because of allergies.  I have really enjoyed these because they are hypoallergenic and I feel like they have done a great job of creating color combinations that really do work well with your eye color.  The directions on the box weren't all that helpful, but I worked it out and it looks really great!
