Beauty Product Reviews

Don't believe the swatches or the hype

Based on all of the glowing reviews and crazy swatching videos, I actually purchased both of these palettes when Beautylish first stocked them. I will say that they swatch insanely beautifully well. But as actual eye shadows? They are completely disappointing. Over a primer (I tried 3 different ones, including a very high end brand), these colors did not last. They faded, creased, and muddied (read: discolored) within 2-3 hours. One color, Nina's Orchid (so a beautiful orchid pink/purple matte in the pan) turned a faded RED on my eyelid! And worst of all, these were extremely uncomfortable on. After testing them and wearing them for a week straight, I had an irritation on and around my eye area and temple. So glad I got these from Beautylish and that they have an amazing return policy, as once the irritation became apparent - I couldn't return them fast enough.
