The Balm Nude'tude Eyeshadow Palette Review

Hello Beauties I hope you are all well :) 
Ok I have a wee confession, incase you havent noticed I have a little obsession with eyeshadows :)  
I just cant resist them at all.  I love makeup so so much the eyes are my favourite part and when it comes to eyeshadows especially palettes (in my eyes) you can never have too much.  
This palette in particular I have wanted in my life for such a long time and I finally got my hands on it.  There is a number of reasons why I wanted it so much starting with 
  1. You can safely say Youtube and Bloggers made me do it.  :)   I have seen so many people on Youtube boasting about this palette and giving it A1 reviews and as of beauty bloggers well swatches and picture confirmed I NEEDED IT 
  2. The shade selection :) These shades are exactly what we need in our lives for bothe day time and night time looks 
  3. Of course the packaging I mean seriously The Balm have really made their packaging too attractive for us to pass am I right 

This beautiful palette comes in a card board covering much like the actualy palette it slides out of the covering to reveal this very slim light weight palette.  The lid of the palette is closed with a little magnet :)  
Inside you will find a slim mirror (Always handy for travelling)  
You will also see 10 beautiful shadows each on named (Love it) and also a double ended brush.  Not a sponge tipped applicator!  You are getting on one end your are getting an angled eyeshadow brush and on the other end you are getting and eyeliner brush :)  Again LOVE IT !!!!!

Do I hear Angels singing ?? Ok Ok my obsession might be a little more than OTT but you have to admit this palette looks Beautiful already doesnt it :)  Well let me give you a closer look :) 

Did you say closer Ok if you insist :) 

Ok lets get on with the shades shall we :) 
We have 
Sassy:  A Stunning shimmery white eyeshadow a perfect highlight for under the brows or in the inner corner to open up tired eyes :)  This shade is gorgeous and very pigmented.  Its so easy to blend and feels like silk :) Love it 

Stubborn:  A beautiful shimmer baby pink.  The shimmers are silver and a little chunky but nothing a bit of blending wont change :)  A stunning all over the lid shade :) :) 

Selfish:  A stunning taupe with golden shimmer :) The more you build this shade the more silver it looks its beautiful and very pigmented :)  A little goes a long way :) 

Sophisticated:  A Stunning medium brown with golden shimmers :)  Again very pigmented and soft.  Its also very easy to blend :) 

Sexy:  Love this shade :)  Its our first Matte of the palette a deep burgundy a stunning crease shade for those darker smokey eye looks or if you are bold enough wearing on the lid for a day time look :)  This shade is stunning on green/hazel eyes especially :)  Very pigmented and very soft 

Serious:  Another matte for us this time a matte black :)  Very pigmented, very black and again very soft.  This is one easy bad boy to blend and can also be used as an eyeliner :) 

 Snobby:  A beautiful shimmery yellow :)  again very pigmented soft and very blendable :) 

Stand.offish:  A light shimmery peach :)  The shimmers are a little chunky in this and you will experience a little fall out if you are not careful but this is another beautiful lid shade :) 

Sultry:  Another matte this time a medium brown.  The perfect crease shade or even for blending out :)  Very pigmented and very soft :)  

Seduction:  A stunning shimmery gold.  Very pigmented and very creamy This shade is stunning on people with blue eye especially.  The perfect lid colour for a neutral day time look :) 

Silly:  This is a lovely satin medium brown with tiny specks of golden shimmer :)  You barely notice the shimmer when you blend this shade out and would almost pass for a medium matte brown :) nicely pigmented and a little goes a long way :) 

Sleek:  A very deep dark matte brown hugely pigmented and very soft :)  This shade is super easy to blend and works well for a daytime smokey eye or even a day time eye-liner :)  

You can slick on the photo for a closer look.  All swatches are made with no primer underneath :) 

I played around with this palette just putting shades together and this is what I came up with of course for day time :) (you can click on the photo for a closer look )  :) 

I used "Stubborn" all over the lid patting on more on the 1st half of the lid
I use "Sultry" in the crease and above 
Next I used "Sexy" in the crease and outer corner of the lid blending it inwards on the lid and a little above the crease 
I wanted the out V and the crease to be a little darker so I applied "Silly" there and blended :)  I patted a little of "Stand.offish" to the inner corners to brighten up the area :)  I applied all of the above to the lower lash line :)  
Lastly I applied a little of "Sassy" just below the brow :) 

Overall This palette is amazing and well worth having in your collection.  Each and every shade is amazing pigmented and lasts all day long especially when used with a good base :)  I plan on creating alot of looks with this palette.  The eyeshadows are so easy to work with and blend like a dream :)  I really want to try out some more palettes by Thebalm :) This palette is a great investment especially if you are a makeup artist or like me love doing eye makeup :)  Gorgeous !!!!

You can purchase this palette from The Balm website itself which costs $36/€34 if you are a first time buyer from The Balm website you can get 10% off your first order by signing up :)  or like myself from Cloud10 Beauty for €35 and Cloud10 are offering 15% off everything to celebrate Mothers Day just use the code "mum15" offer ends March 15th or you can also get it on ebay in which I have checked for you here for €26.32 including postage

Lots of Love Luck and Laughter

Makeup Academy (MUA) Romantic Efflorescence Palette :)

Hello my beauties I hope you are all well :) 
Its been quite some time since I shopped on The Makeup Academy Site and a few weeks ago I had a little browse and seen that their was a few new things that I just had to get my hands on :) 
One of course was this palette.  The Romantic Effloresence Palette :) 
I have tried many of Makeup Academy palette and to be honest was never disappointed so I just had to try this baby out :) 
This palette contains 10 eyeshadows for only £4 :) 

The packaging is the same as every other MUA Eyeshadow Palettes :)  Light weight palette which is white and with a clear lid :)  There is no mirror but it does come with a double ended sponge applicator :) 


As mentioned above there is a mixture of 10 eyeshadows both matte and shimmery.  The eyeshadows are suitable for every skin tone and is perfect for day time and night time looks :)  What I love is that each eyeshadow is named I know it may not mean alot but it means alot to us beauty bloggers :) 
What i do find different from this palette to the rest of them is that the colours look mixed up in the palette, usually the lightest colours are on the first row and the darker shades ending with the black is on the 2nd row.  Its not a great deal I suppose but when your used to having shades in order it can be a little weird :)   So here is the shades :) :) 


Mesmeric:  This is a very light almost sheer matte champagne shade.  This is the perfect matte highlight or blending out shade :)  
Tempt:  A deep shimmer purple with a hint of red sparkles :)  I thought this would be more pigmented than it is but it appears patchy which takes a little more effort to blend :)  If used over the lid you are best patting it on for more of an effect :) 
Corrupt:  In the pan this looks like a very pigmented black but Its not the blackest I have seen :)  This is more of a charcoal matte black.  It is pigmented but not as pigmented as I thought.  You have to build this shade up.  Its easy to blend which is a bonus.  
Obsessed:  A deep chocolate brown with silvery shimmers :)  Very pigmented a little goes a long way :) 
Lavish:  Is a very sheer matte light taupe.  It would be perfect to use as a blending out shade.  
Fiery:  A Deep Metallic gold I love this shade.  Its very pigmented and a little goes a long long way :) 


Bewitched:  A nice medium bronze brown shade :)  This again is very pigmented and shimmery :)  
Magnet:  A medium brown grey shade :)  This is another matte :) I find this again to be patchy and a little hard to work with its a good outer v shade for a daytime smokey look 
Exposed:  This is an unusual shade :)  Its a light brown grey shade with silver shimmer :)  When the sun shine on this shade it looks like it has hints of green in it :)  very pigmented a little goes a long way 
Siren:  This is another matte shade this time a medium purple.  Again I find this shade patchy which leaves it hard to work with :(  you need to build this shade to work with it :) 
Reveal:  This is a light bronzed taupe which in some light looks silver :)  With is very shimmery and very pigmented :)  You may experience some fallout while using this shade as it is slightly chalky 
Captivate:  Another matte this time a medium brown.  This is a better matte than the rest quite pigmented easy to blend easy to work with.  


To be honest this palette didnt excite me alot.  When I began to swatch it, some of the shades looked very simular.  I was trying to pin point which palette it reminded me of and then bam !!! The MUA Undress Me Too palette .  
So If you have the MUA Undress Me Too Palette you may want to pass on this one as I find the Undress Me Too Palette to be better than this one :) 
I am not saying that this is not a great palette but I have found the eyeshadows less pigmented and the mattes were very disappointing  
I find you have to use a primer all the time with this palette and it does last for the day but without you are not going to get the pigmentation you want.  There is some very pigmented eyeshadows in this as you will see by the swatches but I have to admit its the first palette by MUA that disappointed me.  
Here is a day time look I created using these shadows :) 
I used "Mesmeric" under the brow and all over the lid
"Fiery"  on the inner 1/2 of the lid 
"Siren" in the crease and a little above 
"Obsessed" on the outer 1/2 of the lid 
"Corrupt"  on the outer V of the lid blending into the crease 
I took a shimmer golden champagne shade from another palette to the inner corners to brighten up my eyes 

Have you tried this palette yet?  Whats your thoughts of it :)  I hope you enjoyed this review :) 
Until Next Time 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter

Coastal Scents Revealed Palette Review

Hello My beauties I hope you are all well 
Today I come to you with a review on the Coastal Scents Revealed Palette.  I am sure if you are a makeup junkie like myself you have heard about this palette as its a well known palette by alot of bloggers and makeup gurus on youtube :)  That is in fact where I have seen it alot.  I have heard some great reviews about this and just had to get it to try it out for myself.  

This palette comes in 2 versions, there is also a palette by Coastal Scents called Revealed 2 in which I couldnt help but get also and will review in a future post :) 
These palettes cost at the moment $19.99 for 20 eyeshadows.  Thats pretty impressive so far right?! 

The palette itself comes in a handy little box which looks exactly like the palette itself only it has a picture of the palette in the back of the box.  The palette itself is really slim and lightweight which is always handy for travelling or even handier for storing in your drawer.  The lid of the palette is held closed by a magnet I love that :) 

The most beautiful sight is about to happen when I open this stunning palette :) :) 

Doesnt it look stunning :) :)
As I mentioned before there is a total of 20 eyeshadows in this palette and as you can see they are all neutral shades :) :) 
There is a nice mixture of mattes and shimmers in there which is perfect for day time and night time looks :)  
There is only 4 matte shades but to be honest I am happy with the shade choices for the mattes and you will soon see why :) 

Starting with the top row :) 
Shade 1:  Is a pale matte yellow toned beige shade.  This is quite pigmented and and incredibly soft a perfect shade for blending or to use as a highlight :) 
Shade 2:  This is another perfect highlight shade only this has a shimmery finish.  The shade is veering towards a pale pinky champagne with tiny silver shimmer.  Again pigmented and a little goes a long way :) 
Shade 3:  This is one of my favourite shades in the palette.  A stunning rosey pinky shade with silver shimmer.  Oh my goodness this is super pigmented and really looks stunning all over the lid :)  I find this shade really brings the green out of my hazel eyes :) 
Shade 4:  This is another matte shade the perfect transition colour.  A light tan shade very pigmented and very soft.  
Shade 5:  Another Matte shade for us to play with.   This is a medium toned taupe shade.  This shade has a tint of purple in it.  I love to use this as a transition shade or even lightly in the crease for daytime looks :)  
Shade 6:  Another favourite of mine :) :)  A medium Bronzy brown with gold shimmer.  This shade is very pigmented and very easy to apply.  
Shade 7:  This is a medium matte brown the perfect crease/ blending/ brow shade.  This is very pigmented and again very soft 
Shade 8:  Another beautiful shade.  A shimmery gold and very pigmented :) 
Shade 9:  A Deep taupey brown with golden shimmer this is super pigmented and very soft and stunning shade to mix with shade 8 :) 
Shade 10:  This is a shimmery silver with a tint of taupe in there.  Its not your ordinary silver.  This again is very pigmented and soft :) 

Next up is row 2 :)  This row is more on the deeper and more pigmented side :) 
Shade 11:  A Deep Copper Brown wow is this shade full of pigmentation :)  A little goes a long way with the beauty I love it :) 
Shade 12:  This is a deep brown shade with the slightest shimmery finish.  This is more of a satin finish than shimmery.  If you look very closely you will see the slightest gold shimmer its beautiful 
Shade 13:  A deep taupey grey shade.  This too has the slightest amount of shimmer which gives a satin finish :)  Very pigmented 
Shade 14;  This shade is somewhat like Shade 12 only a shade darker the perfect crease and outer V shade for creating a daytime smokey eye look hugely pigmented 
Shade 15:  I am totally in love with this shade :)  A medium rose gold with a copper undertone to it :) again with the tiniest amount of golden shimmer.  Very pigmented and super soft so so easy to work with.  I have applied this shade on the lid with a damp brush and wow AMAZING!!!!! 
Shade 16:  This is a little like Shade 13 only more on the brown side :) :) Again very pigmented 
Shade 17:  is like shade 15 only more on the copper side :)  There is plenty of gold in this shade and super super pigmented.  When applied with a damp brush it gives a more foiled and pigmented finish.  This shade would be perfect for a christmas look :) :) 
Shade 18:  A Deep dark brown with a slight golden shimmer again another satin finish eye-shadow and again very pigmented :) 
Shade 19:  A Deep Silver perfect for those night time smoky eyed looks.  Very pigmented and super soft to work with 
Shade: 20:  A Deep matte black :) I love using this on the outer V I also use this as eye-liner during the day by simply dampening my eye-liner brush.  Its not the deepest black I have come across but its very very close.  Its also very easy to blend which is hard to find as matte eyeshadow especially dark shade can be hard to blend in a more affordable palettes :)  Its also very buildable :) 

I just have to highlight something before I continue.  I am absolutely amazed with how creamy these eyeshadows feel,  They almost remind me of how my Lorac Pro eyeshadows feel to touch and how they apply to the eyes :)  That says alot because of the price difference between the two.  
I also have to admit there is less fall out with this palette compared to my Lorac Pro Palette.  Thats not saying that you will not experience some fall out as I have noticed especially with the more darker shade you will experience some fall out.  The black especially !!! So I would advise you if you are creating the dark smokey eye maybe do your eye makeup before you apply your foundation :) 
With a primer (which I use 98% of the time) these shadows will last all day and even all night long.  I have worn these shadows with an eyeshadow base for the longest of 12 hours and I can safely say my eyeshadow looked exactly the same as when I first applied them that day :) 
I highly recommend this eyeshadow palette especially at the price it is :)  You could literally get away with only owning this palette and been able to create 10 + different looks :) 
Here is a daytime smokey eye look I created using the Shade 1 on the brow bone, A mixture of Shade 3 & Shade 6 on the lid, shade 11 on the outter corner blending inwards, Shade 4 for blending, Shade 7 in the crease and shade 14 in the outer V.   I also used Shade 20 as eye-liner :)  

As you can tell I adore this palette.  I highly recommend it to you all.  I know alot of you might ask me this question in the comments so I am going to cover it now and that is about shipping cost as Coastal Scents is an American Site and I can safely say on my last order which included this palette along with 2 other palettes and 4 makeup brushes the total shipping cost was only $20 and there was no custom charges :) 
I really hope you enjoyed this review :) 
Until Next time 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter

Makeup Revolution Redemption Iconic 2 & 3 Palette Review

Hey Beauties again apologies for the lack of posts I have to wait yet another week for my new laptop which is not my fault but the companies grrrrrrr.  I have so much stuff to share with you its not even right but as soon as I get the laptop I will be booming with posts for you all.  
Today I am going to share with you my review on the Makeup Revolution Iconic 2 & 3 Palettes together :)  You may remember me sharing my thoughts on the Iconic 1 which was the exact match to the Urban Decay Naked Palette 1 To refresh your memories check out my post here.  
Iconic 2 & 3 is supposed to be the exact dupe of the Naked Palette 2 & 3 but unfortunately I can not do a comparison post on either as I dont own The Naked palette 2 & 3.  I can however share with you my thoughts on them and also show you my swatches :) :) 

Each Palette costs only £4 which If you were to buy the 3 together would only be a 1/3 of the price of 1 Naked Palette.  Each palette contains 12 shadows the exact same as the Naked Palettes.  Each palette comes with a sponged tipped applicator.  
So let me show you the 2nd palette :) 
The Iconic 2 
I often wondered why the Naked Palette 2 was less spoken about (correct me if I am wrong) but to me it wasn't as popular as the Naked 1 & 3.  Well to be honest if this is the exact dupe to the NP2 I wouldnt be rushing out there to get the real deal and thats for sure.  Not that I do not like it I do but its not as exciting as the 1 & 3 and I do see now why its not as hyped.  
I have to admit I am very impressed with the shadows in this palette.  This palette comes with 4 matte shades which I know I am very pleased with as its great to see matte shades amongst shimmers.  It saves so much time have all in one :) 
These shades are more cool toned shades unlike the Iconic 1 which is more warm toned.  

So lets talk shades :) 
1st shade:  Is the perfect matte highlight, A nice peach and quite pigmented for a light shade 
2nd shade:  This is a lovely satin peach perfect for the lid this is very pigmented also and a little goes a long way 
3rd Shade:  This is another champagne but with more of a satin finish.  This is alot more pigmented than the first and is perfect for that shimmer looking highlight or even on the lid for that wide eyed look :) :) 
4th shade:  This is a stunning copper gold again with a satin finish and again very pigmented 
5th shade:  Is another matte.  This is a taupe shade and perfect for blending I have to admit this isnt as pigmented as the rest of the shades but you can still make it work 
6th shade:  A fabulous Bronze Brown with a satin/metallic finish oh my gosh this is highly pigmented you really only need a tiny amount to achieve a look :) Be warned though this shade will give a little fall out as it doesnt seem as compressed as the rest of the shades so use the brush with a light hand 
7th Shade:  This is another shade I have found very chalky so use with a light hand.  This is a stunning shade and perfect for the lid.  Even though it looks a little darker in the pan than what it looks like on the eye.  This is yet another champagne shade but gives more of a golden champagne finish this too has a slight metallic finish
8th shade:  This shade is a light gunmetal veering towards a silver.  A metallic finish and very pigmented.
9th shade:  A cool toned champagne shade with a metallic finish a perfect on its own shade for days you need to look more awake 
10th shade:  My favourite shade of all a rose gold I absolutely love this on the lid as it really makes my hazel eyes pop.  Hugely pigmented and has a slight metallic finish to it amazing !!!!
11th shade:  This next shade is stunning its a deep brown it hints of purple going through it and also has hints of gold.  When swatched its very unique.  This has a satin finish and is very pigmented 
12th shade:  This is the last matte shade and I was really hoping it would be a nice one but unfortunately I am not happy with this one.  Not only is it not the blackest of black its also very hard to work with.  At first when swatching with my fingers I got a nice bit of pigmentation but When swatching with a brush I barely got any on the bristles i even had to go to the stage of scrapping it with the bottom of the brush to break up the shadow a little its just too compacted in the pan :( 

This picture was taken in normal light with no primer underneath 
Dupe or not this palette is well worth adding to your neutral palettes.  Not only is it very pigmented, the shadows are very easy to blend.  I have seen swatches of the Naked 2 and to be honest looking at this I am sure its a great match.  For the price you can go wrong :) This is a look I did with this palette and you will see yourself the shades are so vibrant all I used for a base was concealer :) 

Next up is The Iconic 3 Palette 

Now since the Naked Palette 3 came out I wanted to get my hands on it after all it contains alot of pinks and purples which I absolutely love and adore :)  To be honest since it came out its been hard to raise the funds and I soon was starting to think I would never get my hands on it.  Thanks to Makeup Revolution I may well and truly got my hands on it only in a much affordable price :)   I know for a fact that this palette matches up to the NP3 as I have been keep my eye on comparison posts and judging by the swatches i am quite happy to stick to this palette rather than part with the big buck :) 


The shades look stunning in the pan dont they :) :)
1st shade:  This is a simple matte cream highlight brilliant for the brow bone, inner corner or even for blending this is less pigmented than I thought it would be but buildable
2nd shade:  Now this shade I am in love it :)  Its a beautiful Metallic pale pink shade with shimmer I have to admit the shimmer is chunky but its works :) I love this all over the lid as it makes my hazel eyes pop.  
3rd shade:  Another perfect highlight/lid shade this would be some what like the 2nd shade only a shade darker and no shimmer :) 
4th shade:  Another matte shade this time a perfect blending out shade or a perfect shade for the crease for a daytime look.  This pinky beige is very pigmented and so easy to work with 
5th shade:  In LOVE with this stunning rose gold shade and boy oh boy the green in my hazel eyes I find are drawn out while wearing this shade on the lid love it !!!!
6th shade:  Copper gold as you have never seen before the pigmentation from this beauty is amazing and you need very little to achieve your look 
7th shade:  This is the perfect transition shade a matte medium brown with a soft hint of purple in it I love using this with my pinks and its highly pigmented 
8th shade:  A light bronzed brown I love a little less pigmented but is buildable 
9th shade:  A Deep and Pigmented brown with a golden hint through it :) wow is my word 
10th shade:  A very very deep taupe which can also give the illusion of a grey finish amazing shade and amazing pigmented 
11th shade:  A much deep darker taupe hugely pigmented and very easy to work it and also to blend out.  This has a satin finish 
12th shade:  Oh my gosh one of my favourites for sure.  In the pan you think you are getting a deep purple with red shimmers but no you are getting a a deep brown almost black shade with burgundy shimmer leaving you with a blackened burgundy shade the more you build it up.  Highly pigmented and is a little chalky but stunning 

Ok do I shouldnt have to tell you but I will....... These swatches are made with no primer underneath.  Yes I know FABULOUS right :) :) here is a look I created with this palette 

Need I say more about these palettes :) They are full on amazing especially for the price and the pigmentation is shocking.  I do use these with primer as its just habit that I have something on my lid before doing any make-up look sometimes I just put concealer on my lids.  I find the they eye shadows lasted all day long on me.  
Have you tried these eye shadows yet?
What's your thoughts on them :) 
Until Next time 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter 
















I love love love hearing from you all :) I make it my duty to read each and every one of you comments and every time i get a comment from you it highlights my day thanks so so much to you all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Makeup Revolution Salvation Palette What you waiting for? Review


Hello my gorgeous readers I hope you are all well :) 
Finally the chicken pox has calmed down and now I can get down to business and get back doing the other thing I love which is blogging :) 
Of course I have to come to you with yet another Makeup Revolution Review and be warned there will be lots more :)  As you know Makeup Revolution has become really popular over a short time and that is because A) they do pretty good makeup B) they are super affordable and C) They keep surprising us with more and more new products 
This palette is in fact one of their newest editions along with other palettes in which of course I will be showing you in due course :) 
Let me just warn you that these are in fact Limited Edition so if you like what you see grab while you can ;) 
There are 5 palettes up for grabs at the moment and each one of them cost £6 :) 
Each palette contain 18 shadows altogether which works out you are paying 0.33p per eyeshadow not bad eh?
Today I am going to show you the What you Waiting for Palette which contains mostly neutral shades for both day and night looks 

As you can see by the outer packaging that the 18 shades are broken down into 12 shimmery shades and 6 matte shades genius


I love the packaging as it a nice size to fit in your handbag or travelling bag.  When you open the packaging thats where the magic begins :) 
You will see a full sized mirror before you and the perfect put together affordable palette you will ever see :) 
Not only that it reminds me so much of the Sleek Eyeshadow Palettes where you get the plastic see through cover over your eyeshadows and the names of each eyeshadow on it.  Not only that but the both 6 shadows are to spitting image of the Sleek Eyeshadows :) :) 

So Lets talk shades :) :) :) 

The first row of shades are perfect for a day time natural look 

We are getting 
We Love You :  This is a perfect wake me up eyeshadow for all over the lid its also perfect for the inner corners brow bone etc.  This shade is a nice warm satin champagne.   The colour payoff has been surprisingly pigmented and lasts all day 

Tick Tock:  Another warm shade this time is a pink toned beige shade also great for the lid it gives a satin finish and is highly pigmented


Cant Find the Brake:  This is literally the same shade as Tick Tock only a shade darker I love it as a lid colour too and it really makes my hazel eyes pop I find with is more flaky than the first 2 shades so you will have a little fall out with it 

  

Moving Car:  This is a stunning pink mauve shade and has a lovely satin finish.  Very pigmented and works great with the first 3 shades 


Do It Alone:   This stunning shade of purple again works brilliantly with all the shades above it have a satin finish and blend will with Moving Car and Cant find the brakes :) Highly pigmented and much darker in swatches that in the pan 


Sex Chromosome:  A Blackened Purple with red shimmers this is a stunning shade but less pigmented than the rest in my opinion.  


The Second Row 

Now Its Only Me:  A Frosty baby pink this is adorable and one of my favourites I adore this shade all over the lid as it brings the green out of my hazel eyes.  This shade is highly pigmented and more effective when patted on the lid :) 


Scary Conversation:  The best gold I have ever swatched in a drugstore palette.  This little beauty looks feels and applies amazingly love it 


Take a Chance:  A Beautiful rose pink shade this again is chalky but very pigmented and and again makes green eyes pop 


Shut my Eyes:  This is a more bronzey brown with tiny little red specks and stunning shade when the sun shines on it.  This gives between a metallic and satin finish and very pigmented 


Stupid H:  A Deep Purple with a slight reddish hue this shade is soft creamy and very pigmented 


Life is Short:  A nice sparkly charcoal shade :) highly pigmented and easy to blend 



Next up is the Mattes :) :) 

Your Capable:  This shade quite chalky so be careful when picking up with the brush as you will pick up too much.  You are getting the perfect blending out harsh lines and matte brow bone colour here a nice matte champagne.  This is literally the matte version of "We Love You"  


Super Hot Female:  A Perfect skin tone shade this colour is perfect for blending and is very pigmented 


Million Dollar Contract:  A lilacy pink shade another blending shade well pigmented and easy to work with 


Hot Track:  A nice purple almost verging towards a brown purple and much more deeper than the first 3 shades a perfect crease shade for daytime looks.  This shadow is again very pigmented and blends brilliantly 


Brand New Fans:  Of course we need a chocolate brown in the palette for that day time smokey eye look and thats what we got :) This shade is another perfect crease or Outer V colour for the daytime smokey eye 


Wicked Style:  A matte black of course comes in handy for the night time looks and even the daytime liner looks when we do not want a heavy liner look.  I have of course used this on the out V which I have to admit needs building and blending building and blending and I have used it wet for eyeliner.  This shade is chalky so expect fall out.  



Overall I am impressed with this palette.  I know its another neutral palette amongst the many many neutral palettes I have to my collection but i have to say this one is one of the best affordable ones out there as to been well thought out.  Each and every colour compliments each other.  There is literally not one odd one there.  I love how easy these are to apply and how blend-able they are even the mattes.  I highly recommend you try this out especially with the fact you have matte shades there to play with.  It makes life so much easier rather than trying to rummage through you eye shadows to find a matte shade to blend out the harsh lines :) 
I havent tried these shadows without primer on the lids as I have habit now to apply a primer over my lids before using any eyeshadows but with primer these last all day long (8 hours) and thats good in my eyes for a £6 palette :) 

Here is a look I created using the What you waiting for?  Its literally a simply smokey eye look for day time or even night time :)  Click on the photos for a closer look :) In this photo I used a mixture of pinks and purples and this made my eyes pop as you will see in the photos below the eye-shadows I used was "Not its only me" all over the lid Then "Moving car" on the outer lid blending it inwards in the crease I used "Shut my eyes" and on the outer V I uses a mix of "Se Chromosome and Stupid H"  for blending I used "Million Dollar Contract and for Brow Bone I used "Your Capable" 



I hope you enjoyed my review :) 
Until Next time 
Lots of Love Luck and Laughter
