The ones I use are Gingko Biloba and Acai. I have the Gingko on-hand because I take it daily to help with circulation. I also have the Acai on-hand because I used to take it thinking it would make me look like the girl in the magazine who took it, but. . .it didn't do a thing! You can use whatever natural powder you want. Experiment! My friend, Bethany, told me that a woman on "The Doctors" TV show had used green tea powder. I really want to try that one!
Gingko happens to be a nice tannish color, and acai is purple. Either would look great on its own, but I mixed them together and created a sort of pinkish, smoky color. I also added pearl powder for shimmer. (How to make pearl powder: Buy a bag of it on eBay. . .or smash one!)
Fun Facts and Tips:
1. It lasts for several hours, even through a day of work and a work out later. There is some noticeable creasing, but that's normal. I just spread it out with my finger when that happens.
2. I like knowing that my eye shadow is good for my skin and not just something clogging my pores for no reason.
3. When I wash it off, I get a little exfoliation action.
4. Apply it with a clean brush and not your fingers.
5. Make it using only one or two supplements at a time. That should last you for up to a few months.
