Cosmetic ingredients needed?

I need to find the ingredients to Sonia Kashuk eyeshadows. I've looked online and can't find anything. Any help?





Here's the situation:


My eyelids are extremely sensitive to most eye shadows--one day of wearing eye shadow, and I'm fighting a red itchy rash for two weeks.





The dermatologist diagnosed this as contact dermatitis, meaning I'm allergic to one of the ingredients of eyeshadow (Clinique, Physician's Formula, Almay, and one of the ';mineral'; styles). He advised me that if I want to identify the exact ingredient, I could have a patch test done (a 5 day allergy test where each individual commonly known allergen is ';painted'; on my back in little patches, and I'm checked for allergic reactions over the 5 days). I was going to do it, but wanted to wait until winter (you can't wash your back for the 5 day time period--ugh). Well, I just found out I'm pregnant, so no testing for me.Cosmetic ingredients needed?
