Eyeshadows and blushes as lippies

I know that there are certain pigments that aren't safe for use on the lips, but as much multiuse products as I can get the better. Is it possible to use some of the eyeshadows on the lips as well? TIA!

It is possible. On Sunday I did the simplest look - used Hug Me as a one wash color on my lids, and also applied it on my lips. Topped it with a clear balm and it was ok. If some color is not lip safe it is written in the description. As far as I remember :-)

The colors with ultramarines are not lip safe. Usually, they are used for coloring matte purples and blues, and some pinks.

I also think ferric ferocyanide (typically in blues, greens and purples) is not lip safe.


If I think of any more, I will add them.

I do not think there is any problem using eyeshades on the lips as well. I personally use Hug me. There could also be other products as well but do note that if the product isn’t safe for the lips, it would be written right there in the description.I am planning to take a lifestyle lift for looking more younger, has anyone tried out them?

Thanks for this info. Believe it or not, but I actually have my eye on Safety (matte orange eyeshadow) to use on my lips. For some reason I'm kind of wanting a carrot/pumpkin/calendula orange color also. A true orange. I tried Palace blush on my lips out of curosity, but it comes out too dark. Safety ingredients list: Mica, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, magnesium myristate, magnesium stearate, boron nitride, silica. Also contains: iron oxides, tin oxide

I'm expecting an order with Excite ALG...maybe that will help somehow.

I'm also looking into the green eyeshadows for a potential lip color blend.
