Product details

Shade: rich, pigment-packed color

Matte finish  ·  Vegan  ·  Cruelty-free  ·  Ultra-pigmented  ·  One-swipe payoff  ·  Long-lasting

Velvet in the tube. Suede on your eyes.

This is the mousse eyeshadow that gives you time to blend — no rushing, no hard edges, no starting over. The velvety matte formula glides on with a single swipe, melts into lids, and sets to a soft-focus, suede-like finish that lasts all day without creasing or fading.

Wear it alone for an effortless everyday look. Layer it under powder shadows to make color pop. Use it as a crease-proof base that keeps everything in place — even through heat, humidity, and long days.

Why it works: Waterproof, sweat-resistant formula grips to lids without primer. Pigment-rich enough for one-swipe coverage; blendable enough for precise sculpting. Works with fingers, a brush, or both.

How to use: Before first use, flip the tube, tap gently on a surface to bring product to the nozzle. Squeeze a small amount onto the applicator or fingertip. Apply to the lid and blend immediately — the formula stays workable, giving you time to perfect placement. Always twist the cap firmly closed to keep the mousse fresh.

Product Volume: 10ml

Application tips

Apply on clean skin without concealer, foundation, or serum for maximum longevity.Use a thin layer and blend well.

Allow time to set before layering if needed, no heavy fixation required.

Texture & Removal

Texture: Suede-like with a soft-focus effect, velvety on the skin, and comfortable to wear. Enhances color payoff, especially matte and pearlescent textures, and works as a fixative for fine glitters.

Removal: Use a waterproof makeup remover for gentle and effective cleansing. Avoid wipes, soap, or abrasive materials to prevent irritation.

Application Tools & Cleaning

Tools:

  1. Choose synthetic brushes: the bristles wash clean easily and their density works well with this formula. Pick a barrel or paddle shape. For size, measure the distance from your lash line to the eyelid crease: a paddle brush should be slightly narrower than that, and a barrel or fluffy brush about half the width of your mobile lid.
  2. Fingers.

Brush Types:

  • Flat brush – for maximum coverage.
  • Fluffy brush – for a soft, smoky effect.
  • Angled brush – for precision.

Cleaning:
Use a remover designed for waterproof makeup to clean brushes and remove tint from the skin.

Ingredients & Safety Notice

ALENATOFIL product ingredients are regularly updated. Check the ingredient list before use to ensure suitability. If irritation (redness) occurs, remove immediately with warm water or makeup remover. If it persists, consult a doctor.

Thin layers work best. Start with one thin layer and let it set. If you want more depth, add one more thin layer on top. One thick layer applied at once breaks the effect instead of improving it. As with any good formula, beyond a certain point a bigger dose simply does not give a better result.

Created by Makeup Artists. Loved by Everyone.

Professional results. No professional skills required.

Looks like rich pigment, feels like silk. The cream-to-powder formula gives a layer of color that lasts until evening, with a softness your skin enjoys wearing.

All 40 shades are different: in texture, in colour, in the way they apply and blend into the skin. Think of them as 40 different eyeshadows in one family. They may look similar and share one name, but no two are alike, even among the mattes. Some are denser, some are more fluid, and the pearls have a character all their own.
