Best Eyeshadow Palette

Eyeshadows are my favorite cosmetic and I am very picky when it comes to them. These shadows are the best I have tried. The texture and pigment is absolutley perfect. They are so smooth and buttery. And that even applies to the matte shades. I usually do not even like matte shades, I do like these. The only tiny issue I have is that some of the shades (mostly the mattes) are a bit powdery. There is no fall out and the lasting power is wonderful. It is also nice to have a palette that as an equal number of mattes and shimmers. You seldom see that. The packaging is really nice, too. It is very basic and sleek. It would be an easy one to travel with since it does not take up much room. The primer included is even great. It works even better than *gasp* Too Faced's Shadow Insurance. Such a beautiful palette and well worth the $42.

Nice Polish and Good Price

I am very pleased with this polish. It is nearly opaque in one coat and applies really easily. It is a bit on the thick side, though. Dry time was pretty good, too. I have the shades "Jet Set to Paris" and "Greycian Goddess." "Jet Set to Paris" is a lovely sapphire shade and "Greycian Goddess" is a dark grey. They are great fall shades. I usually buy Essie or O.P.I polishes, so the $4.99 price tag was nice. There is also a great variety of shades to try. I look forward to trying more of them.

Love it!

I am shocked by how much I love this product. They are so silky and give a great wash of color. Even though these are sheer, they can easily be built up. I have dry, eczema prone lips and this does not irritate them in any way. I love the glossy texture and the color stays one me all day long. After 4 hours, the glossy finish goes away and it looks a bit more like a stain. Currently, I have Blushing Sequin, Violet Chiffon and Pink Cashmere. I love them all. Blushing Sequin is a lovely, sheer hot pink. Violet Chiffon is a light purple that is much more flattering than I thought possible and Pink Cashmere is just a pretty, light pink.

New Favorite

I have always been a Lancome girl for mascara. That is until I tried this baby. I love the gel-mousse formula. It doesn't make my lashes feel brittle or dry. It does not clump but my lashes look fuller and longer. It does not flake, irritate my sensitive eyes and it stays on. Perfect mascara.

Amazing!

This is quite possibly my favorite shadow ever. The pigment is great and so is the texture; they feel smooth and blend well. The staying power really shocked me. I had no problem with creasing or fading throughout the day. Something about these shadows just looks better than any other I own. I also have very sensitive eyes, but these did not cause any problems whatsoever. If you have never tried them, they are worth checking out. Right now, I have five shades but will be getting more. The picture I included has swatches of (from left to right) Golden Peach, Chocolate, Spearmint, Velvet Green and The Body Shop's Eye Shimmer in 06.

My favorite blush ever!

I bought this blush a few weeks ago and have been in love with it ever since. It gives the perfect pink flush and has just enough shimmer to give a great glow. I love that the colors can be mixed together, but can also be used separately. The light color makes a great highlighter. It is very pigmented and a little bit goes a long way. I bought Petal, which has a rosy pink and pale, almost light peach. Love, love, love it!

Not bad at all.

I have accumulated four or five of these lipsticks and really like them. For the price, they can't be beat. It is creamy, smooth and I did not find it to be drying at all (and I have eczema). It did not cause any irritation and there is no odd scent that can be common in cheaper products. The pigment is wonderful and the staying power is pretty good. The swatch I am including is of 511B or Nouveau Pink, which is fuschia and is great for spring/summer. The only minor downside is the cheap packaging, but that is not a big deal for me.

Beautiful color, horrible staying power

After reading the other reviews, I must have gotten the bad seed out of the bunch. The color is absolutley gorgeous and unique. The amethyst mixed with gold really caught my attention in the store and it swatched beautifully. The texture is velvety smooth and very soft. But even with the use of primer, this shadow did not stay on me. My Wet n Wild shadows perform a lot better than this.

Adore this palette!

There is no denying that this product is eyecatching. I have never seen colors like this in any other palette, so I had to try it. I love the texture and pigment of the shadows. They are very soft and smooth, but a couple of the shades can be a little powdery. The shadows are a little more pastel that what the appear to be in pictures. Despite the bright colors, I find them very wearable and they give the perfect pop of color. And they also stay on all day. All in all, this is a great palette. And as an added bonus, it comes with a gorgeous blue liner.

Not great.

There are a few things I dislike about this product. The major one being the texture. The shadow is not smooth and the top two shadows have somewhat of a gritty texture(the bottom two are a little better). There is also a lot of shimmer, but no fall out. The pigmentation is so-so but this product does stay on fairly well when used with primer, but not without it. The colors look gorgeous in the container and look fairly decent when applied. But I would skip this product, it is nothing fantastic.
