How beautiful are these palettes! I picked them up on an amazing deal in boots, and I am so glad I did. I don't think i've ever read anything about these which is crazy as they are incredible! Each palette contains a primer shade which was not what I expected as it's just another powder shadow, a lid shade, a crease shade, a browbone shade and a stunning glitter to pack on top of the shadows.
The quality of the shadows is gorgeous, they are really buttery and the pigmentation really packs a punch. The shades aren't overly glittery so when you pop the glitter on top it doesn't look too over the top. I can't say I've used the primer shade a lot as I need quite a strong eye primer. I did use it once and I just found that it really didn't help with creasing which occurred within around four hours however with a primer (Mac bare study if you were wondering) these shadows lasted all day. I really like the colours in the palettes and they all work really nicely together.
On the back of each palette there is a little diagram to show you where to apply the shadows. The casings are nice and sturdy and I like the way you can see the shades through the little window as it looks really pretty in my collection. Impressionist is my favourite for everyday as it is gorgeous neutral palette with some beautiful shades. Metropolitan is brilliant for a more dramatic evening look. The sparkle shades in the palettes are my favourite shades in the palette as they really make the looks pop.
Overall I really like these palettes and I seriously suggest you give them a go. They are really lovely drugstore palettes!

I'm a huge revlon fan but I've never tried their eyeshadows as I assumed the quality wasn't great. I'll have to have a look at these in store. They look fab! X
ReplyDeleteThese are absolutely beautiful swatches! I've never taken a proper look of them as they don't look like much in the palette but you've convinced me! xx
