Hello folksickles. As a makeup junkie and blogger you may have realized that I review a LOAD of eyeshadow palettes and I like to think of myself as being largely an eyeshadow junkie. In order to declutter a bit I've decided to pick out a palette or series of eyeshadows for the month and have that be my monthly selection for those instances where I'm not doing a tutorial for the blog. Every month I'll do a recap on the eyeshadows - how I feel about them and whether I'll be keeping them or giving them away (and why :P) as well as if I think it's worth its price tag.
So as you can see I created all sorts of colorful, some soft, some smoky, some glittery looks with these shadows. Generally speaking, the quality of this palette is fairly good - the shades have great color payoff and blend together easily. That said, I will be passing this palette along. The main thing that turned me off from the palette is how difficult the glitters are to work with - they're difficult to apply smoothly, even when I use a wet brush (which is usually the most efficient way for me) and tend to crease on the eyelid and cause whatever eyeshadow I applied under them to crease as well. They are also difficult to remove at the end of the day. Initially, I thought about keeping the palette and just not using the glitter shades but I really feel that I have dupes for nearly all of the shades here in other palettes that I'm more likely to reach for. So to me, it makes more sense to part ways with it.
Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
