Au Naturale Cosmetics Let It Snow Eyes That Twinkle Holiday Gift Set Review + Swatches!

Let It Snow Eyes Gift Set has gray, silver, white and a complex taupe that can help eyes shine and sparkle.


Getting down to basics can be a beautiful thing.  If you are determined to find healthier alternatives to chemicals, then Au Naturale Cosmetics takes the guesswork out of what could be in your makeup with their purer mineral formulations like with the Let It Snow Eyes That Twinkle Holiday Eye Gift Set for some sensational holiday glamour.

This gift set is strictly vegan without any animal bi-products and formulated in the United States with no synthetic preservatives, nano particles, gluten, parabens, fillers, dyes or toxins.  The Let It Snow Set has two Cremes de la Cream Shadow sticks in White Quartz and Vintage along with two Super Fine Eye Shadows in Luna and Slate for a soft, but polished sexy look.

Luna is the pale pearly, gray silver and Slate is the more intense silver.


The Creme de la Cream Shadow in White Quartz is a glistening white.  The Vintage Cream Shadow is described as pink patina gold, but this is a lovely, complicated taupe underlying with pink, brown, gold, and mossy green within its depths.  These cream shadow sticks glide nicely and blend well.  They do crease after a while alone without a primer, but do hold up longer when topped with the Super Fine Eye Shadow.

Starting on the right is White Quartz, Vintage, Luna, and then just a trace of Slate on the left.


The Super Fine Eye Shadows have roller-ball design to disperse the eye shadow powder.  These gleaming shades include Luna, a pearly light gray and a cool metallic, deeper silver with some blue to it called Slate.  Though gorgeous, the roller-ball can be problematic.  Luna rolled out, but Slate refused to budge no matter how many times I rolled.  Eventually, I  removed the roller-ball so I could dip my brush in, which made all the difference.

Au Naturale Cosmetics also has another color option for this eye set called Merry & Bright that has more vibrant gemstone colors.  Super Fine Eye Shadows are as follows with Dark Opal, a dusty pearlescent cranberry rose and Old Flame, a rusty orange with subtle bronze luminosity.  The two Cremes de la Cream Shadow consist of Galaxy, a deep smokey cobalt blue and Bora Bora,  bright aquamarine blue. 

Starting on November 15, 2017, Au Naturale’s Let It Snow or the Merry & Bright Eyes Gift Sets ($50.00 with a $78.00 value) will be available at Whole Foods, Amazon or at Au Naturale’s website.  Check it out because these can dress up your eyes in style besides being wonderful to give as a gift.

Au Naturale Cosmetics Lips That Shine Holiday Gift Set Review – Vibrant Lip Glam to Dress Up the Holidays

This is one of those perfect reds with enough pink for most complexions to carry it off.


My feeling is beauty is even better if you don’t have to worry about the safety of the makeup that you put on your face.  Au Naturale Cosmetics meets the bill with no synthetic preservatives, nano particles, parabens, fillers, dyes, gluten, or animal bi-products in their healthier, toxic-free organic makeup.  

Earlier on, I reviewed their cream foundations, cream blushes and cream bronzers, which I really liked for performance and convenience to simplify doing your makeup when rushed.  However, I never sampled any of their lips products until this Lips That Shine Holiday Gift Set arrived.

The set includes Eternity Lipstick in VIP ($25), a statement making red-pink and High Luster Lip Gloss ($18.00) in Opulence to finish the lips with an opal luster that is luminous.   

This lipstick feels smooth  and cushions the lips in moisturizing comfort for a few hours until I needed to reapply after eating.  It is creamy, but does have a slight waxiness to it.

This gloss can work magic over top any lipstick with its magic.


A gorgeous effect was using the High Luster Lip Gloss that I applied over top that lipstick.  It was like coating my lips with liquid reflective pearls.  It is not too heavy, sticky or greasy, but wonderfully in between.

Starting on November 15, 2017, Au Naturale’s Holiday Gift Sets like this Lips That Shine will be available at Whole Foods, Amazon or at Au Naturale’s website.  Check it out because it makes an ideal way to glam up for holiday parties or give as a gift.
