Honeybee Gardens Cosmopolitan Palette, Lip pencil, and Physician's Formula Fakeout Mascara

I am so excited about the Honeybee Gardens Cosmopolitan Eye Shadow Palette.  The color pay off is great for they are very pigmented and the colors I think would work on many skin colors.   I wore them with the Jane Iredale champagne eye gloss as a primer and they lasted all day.  The palette's  colors are:
 Kashmir a matte brown
Satin Sheets a sparkly gold
PS Pink a matte medium pink
Angelic a sparkly pale pink
It also brings a bamboo brush-sponge

I love that it scores a 2 on the cosmetic database.  It retails for $29.95 but I was able to get mine half off so watch out for sales.  

I also got the Honeybee Gardens lip pencil in island spice. This is a very versatile neutral brown.  I can use it with different shades of lipstick.  I like the texture.  It's not too hard nor too soft.  I love that it scores a 1 on the cosmetic database.  

The last product I tried was the Physician's Formula Fakeout mascara.  I like that the ingredients are pretty green.  Unfortunately it leaves me with raccoon eyes.  I find myself having to wipe under my eyes constantly trying to avoid this but usually fail miserably.  I don't think I will be repurchasing this product unless I can't find another cost effective and "clean" alternative.  Any "clean" mascaras and that perform well please leave suggestions below.  My go to mascara is Jane Iredale's longest lash thickening and lengthening mascara.  The cost is $33 and I would like something that would cost less and if possible perform better.  I did like the combination of both of these mascaras together, but again I don't want to go around with raccoon eyes.
