 Product Summary: Created to suit different skin tones and eye colours, the nude medium palette is a rich mix of spicy tones combining chestnuts and deep browns. Featuring metallic shimmers in warm yellow and rose gold tones, rustic copper, dusty pink, coral and unique terracotta shades. Full price: $44 but I bought it on sale for $22.  ***Cruelty free*** It comes to no surprise that I absolutely love this color story! Definitely, right up my alley. I love the matte and metallic shades! The entire color story just works well together and it's easy to mix and match the different eyeshadows to always have a beautiful eye look. It really is low effort on making them work together.  I have a love/hate relationship with the metallic/shimmer eyeshadows. I love how pigmented they are, however, whether I am using a makeup brush or my finger the shadow starts to crumble and it get everywhere. If I'm not careful when I apply it on my lids it will get everywhere on my under eyes and...

 Product Summary: Inspired by the warm, sultry, sexy sun-kissed skin of beach babes frolicking in the surf and sound of Malibu, these 16 rich, creamy, highly-pigmented modern nudes range from flattering to sultry matte, metallic, shimmer, and sparkle shades for looks so naturally alluring, they'll think you were born in L.A.! Cost: Full price $70 however, I bought it on sale from Sephora for $33.  ***Cruelty free*** Despite Too Faced having a sub-par reputation and a history of being problematic I have always loved their palettes and have taken advantage in buying their products on sale. This is another palette of theirs that I have thoroughly enjoyed. I am never a fan of the full price tag, hence, why I only buy them on sale because dishing out $33 is a hell of a lot more manageable than $70.  As per usual, I am a fan of the natural/nude eyeshadows. I love the pigmentation and love the colour pay off. They are easy to work with and they blend extremely well. Starting fro...

Product Summary: Get your colour fix from 8 tasty shadows that arm you up like a hot latte on a cool morning. There's no jitter, only glitter (and creamy perfection) from these gorgeous shades that keep you going long past morning. Bought this palette on sale for $25. ***Cruelty free*** When I first used this palette I was a little bit nervous that the lightest shade Kool Whip would be too light but it works amazingly on the lid. It has a tiny bit of sheen which you wouldn't notice unless you swatch it. I love using Kool Whip to brighten and open my eyes. It just looks so good. All these shades are extremely pigment and blend really well individually and together.  There is some fallout if you pick up too much product so just pick up a little bit of product and if needed you can build the colour up. All these colours work together so well. You can pair up any 2 colours and they will work well together. It's super easy to create a quick eye look and be on the go to start you...

 Product Summary: Step up your contoured eye looks with the shade + light eye contour quad. Featuring four curated matte shades, this quad spotlights KVD's high pigment, silky, and blendable eye shadows in a coveted, coffin shaped palette. Bring out the best in your eyes with a neutral base, and then use the contour, define, and highlight shades to create your ideal eye shape. You can use the four shadows to lift, define, widen and narrow your eyes.  Costs around 26$ ***Cruelty free ❤*** I had higher expectations from this product, unfortunately, what I got in return was a disappointing experience and a whole lot of fallout. The first thing I noticed as soon as I dipped my brush is the huge amount of product that kicked up. It felt almost like something out of a sandbox, it's everywhere and it keeps on coming. On top of that, it's hell to blend it. I'm trying to blend the shadow into my crease and instead of blending, the shadow just moves around. I have to work a long ...
