My favorites are definitely glam girl and electric lemonade. I found all these colors to be very vibrant, quite pigmented and great to work with. If you or anyone you know is looking for a bright eyeshadow, I would say check these out.


What do you think of these colors? Are you going to pick any of these up? What kind of look would you create with these?

ELF Holiday Studio 144-Piece Ultimate Eyeshadow Palette - Swatches

Today I have a post I have wanted to share with you for a while. That's right! Tonight I am finally ready to share swatches of this humongous palette. You have seen a preview of this from my Target haul.

I want to start out by saying I really do feel this palette is a great buy. It is currently $15 at eyeslipsface.com. I do not know anywhere else that you can get 144 shadows in such an array of colors for such a good price. The only issue I have with this palette is that a few of these colors are VERY difficult to work with. It tends to be the matte shades, but no all of the mate shadows are chalky with poor color pay off. To be completely honest, most of the shadows are rather pigmented, soft, and very beautiful. There were just a handful of nasty little buggers that I thought you should be warned about. Even with the handful of hard to use shadows I would say anyone could find a use for this palette and enjoy it. 

ELF Holiday Studio Endless Eyes Pro Mini Eyeshadow Palette - Warm - Swatches

I just wanted to share some quick swatches of this palette in case anyone was interested in buying it. I got this during my Target haul a while ago. There are 32 shadows in this collection. All of these shadows were pigmented well and were easy to work with. This would be a great present for someone just starting to get into make up and looking for a bunch of neutral colors to work with. This is also a great gift for someone who works and needs a more conservative look for the office.

Glamour Doll Eyes Art Deco Collection and Swatches

This is the first part of my Glamour Doll Eyes haul. Today I am going to share with you swatches of the Art Deco collection. This collection Includes six shadows.

Island Chic- is a gorgeous blend of green, blue and a touch of gold. This color reminds me of a mermaid.
Juicy Mango- is a medium shimmer orange with pink afterglow when rubbed down
Phyrra- is hot pink with aqua sparkles
Oddity- is a very unique blend of shimmer and matte
Tattooed- is a very unique blend of matte and shimmer. This color includes a bright blue mixed with a gorgeous shimmery purple.
Pistol Pistol- is a blackened silver (almost gunmetal) with multi colored shimmer, but mainly red shimmer!

Island Chic is a very green blue, the color of the sea. Juicy Mango is a soft, warm orange, Oddity is bright lime green. Phyrra is a pretty, purpley pink with aqua glitter. Tattooed is a warm slightly pink royal purple. Pistol Pistol is a beautiful almost gunmetal grey with multicolored sparkle.

I love all of these colors. I was most excited to get tattooed because I heard so much about it from basically anyone who has purchased from Glamour Doll Eyes. I already had a sample baggie of Island Chic as a free sample from my first ever order with Glamour Doll Eyes. I also purchased Pistol Pistol a while ago as a sample jar- now I have a full jar. I do not think there is a single eyeshadow that I have received from Glamour Doll Eyes that I do not like. They have all been winners; easy to blend, unique, and pigmented.



What do you think of this collection? Are there any colors that catch your eye? How would you put these shadows together to create a look?
