Did You Know that the Wadjet (or Ujat, meaning “Whole One”) is a powerful symbol of protection in ancient Egypt also known as the “Eye of Horus” and the “all seeing eye”?
Horus was the son of Osiris, the God of Air and Earth and Isis, the goddess of Magic and Giver of Life. Osiris, Horus’s father, was killed by his brother Seth in order to seize his throne. When Horus reached manhood he began a war with Seth, because the throne was his. In this war Horus lost one eye. The Gods intervened and decided, that the throne was for Horus and that Seth had to restore Horus eye.
But to honour the memory of his father, Osiris, Horus offered the recovered eye to his father. At last, Osiris transferred his power to his son Horus and retired to the world of the blessed. Thus Horus became the King of Egypt.
The Eye of Horus was believed to have healing and protective power, and it was used as a protective amulet.
It is seen as a very forceful symbol of protection, and all seeing wisdom, and within the eye itself there is perfect unity and spiritual power.
In the beginning, suffering from sensitive eyes and fine, brittle lashes Eye of Horus researched how the Ancient Egyptians used natural waxes and oils in their iconic eye products. Now, Brand "Eye of Horus" which is now in The Philippines, used this ancient formula as a basis for their eye makeup range to provide products that are all natural, non-irritating, nourishing and great for sensitivities. Check the different eye products that Eye of Horus are offering, starting with the mascara and note the oils they use for their products. See also some techniques on how you can achieve a goddess application of pigments on your eyes through their visuals.
I have tried the mascara and eyeliners (colored ones) and so far, the pigments are working well on my eyes - full reviews coming up very soon!
I love all these visuals and If you are checking out my Instagram page, I'm sure you'll know that these will be frequently used for my Hunger Games features!
