Bella Eyes — super new from Milani. It’s a new line of gel powder eyeshadows available in 30 colors, $3.99 each.
Of course I had to check out the neutrals first. 🙂
Doesn’t the gold packaging look extra pretty?
In the top row, from the left to the right, that’s Bella Gold, Bella Copper, Bella Espresso and Bella Taupe.
Starting from the left in the middle row are Bella Bronze, Bella Cappuccino, Bella Caffe and Bella Sand.
Last, but not least, in the bottom row, that’s Bella Ivory and Bella Champagne.
You can find these and the rest of the Bella Eyes gel powder eyeshadow shades now at drugstores and online.

Hi Karen,
I would LOVE to hear what you think of these. I picked up 3 from Walgreens a few weeks ago (Bella Black, Bella Espresso and Bella Purple). I was really excited about the black because MAC Carbon just sometimes can’t do it, lol. I personally had a lot of fall out and was bummed to find out I couldn’t depot them. They’re baked into the packaging without a pan 🙁 I personally was disappointed and can pass on the rest, but everyone prefers something different. These were a miss for me and that stinks because they do look stunning!

I would absolutely love to try these, they look so silky and the colours are so wearable! I wish they would sell Milani here in Germany. 🙁

You can find them on ebay for a decent price and decent combined shipping. I ordered mine from seller beautyjoint.Good luck!

The top row looks really nice! I can’t wait to hear how you like them!

These colors look great! I am especially loving the copper and gold. Milani usually turns out decent eye stuff (been wearing the line since my teens), but some of it IS hit or miss. Hopefully these are more of a hit for most people. I’ve found with some of the drugstore makeup that some of it takes a bit more work to stay put.

Hi Karen! I bought 3 shades couple of weeks ago. Specifically, Espresso, Cappuccino and Sand. They swatched on my skin really nicely and seemed pigmented. However, when applying on eyes with primer, it sheered out. I heard they apply better if you wet your brush so I will try that next time. I kinda just put them away and haven’t put much thought into them. Disappointed. Curious to see how they turn out for you. 🙂

I had the same experience with Cappuccino and Champagne. Espresso was not too-too bad, but I wouldn’t have picked it up by itself, I purchased it to go with the others. I also got Ivory which is okay as well, just not very unique. Other than Cappuccino, they are not terrible, but I don’t have enough room in my makeup area to keep products that are ‘not terrible’, so out they go.

I have 7 of these and want to buy more, but I need to be able to depot them. They are too bulky to have so many. I have limited space so even having a dozen of these would take up a huge amount of space.
There aren’t many reviews out on these either so I’ll wait before I purchase anymore. I also kept my receipt just in case they wear terribly.

These look so pretty – I’m in a bout of neutral fatigue, and I *still* want to stick my fingers into the pans hand have a swatchfest! Of course, we don’t actually have Milani here, but I can live vicariously thought you Karen, right? 😀
Heather says
Are these limited edition or will they be permanent? I found them at couple different drugstores near me but each store only had a display with only 12 shades of the 30. So I’m hoping these are permanent and I’ll be able to find all shades in the Milani permanent display cases
