500 - Posh Peacock
172 - Audacious Amethyst
Ok, so first things first.. Please ignore the untidy, used state of the eyeshadows in the photo's! I got them last week and have been using them both since!
I am a little upset with myself for not taking photos before I started using them, but they were so nice I couldn't resist!

I saw these in Superdrug for £4.49 each but decided to do browsing online first. I buy a lot of my beauty products from fragrancedirect.co.uk and found them on there for a FANTASTIC £1.40 each (click here to view them on fragrance direct)
I love the colours, they are stunning. I am not one who likes subtle eye shadows, I like them to be very bright and to stand out, so for me these are perfect.
My personal favourite of the two is the Posh Peacock, it is so bright and absolutely perfect for the spring/summer time.
I love Audacious Amethyst, it is a lovely lilac colour which has a tiny shimmer to it in some lights.

I am very happy with the texture of the eye shadow and the application is very easy, I personally like my eye shadow to look very bold & opaque, so two layers is perfect for me, however for those of you prefer a more subtle look one application would definitely do the job.
One very little downside to these eyeshadows is that they can get very powdery when applying it to the brush, so before you actually put it onto your eyes gently blow the brush first, to remove any excess eye shadow! Otherwise you do run the risk of having lots of powder fall over your cheeks!
Thank you for reading my post! Please let me know if you have any recommendations for my next one!

ReplyDeleteGlad to see you enjoyed my post :) I absolutely love these colours, looking forward to trying some more of them ♥
DeleteI'd love it if you could do a makeup look with these and/or other bright bold colours. I'm a bit of a nude palette/blacks kind of girl. Haha id love to see a look I could try out! Love the post though xx
ReplyDeleteI will do! I was thinking the same for your palette you have recently posted a blog on? I am not too sure if I could/how to pull of nude colours, so would be really good if you could post a look with those colours in :D xx

Love that purple shade! I'm too scared to wear blue unless its as eyeliner xx
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for taking your time to view my blog!
DeleteI used to be exactly the same and would only ever wear blue eyeliner (which was a rare occasion), then about a year ago I purchased a really like blue Mac eye shadow, and have loved the bright colour's ever since :D
