Review // Elf Geometric Eye shadow Palette!
By Chaste & Beautiful - Friday, November 06, 2015
Can we take the time to
look at this prettiness and applaud, before I continue with the review? This
product managed to make people ever so curious and the review has been the most
long awaited one. I was kind of full of activity so, scheduling an elongated,
lengthy post was difficult for me but today I bring you an insight into the Elf
Geometric Eye shadow Book which was not purchased by me but given to me as a
gift.
Price:
I’m not sure about the
cost but generally Elf products are very affordable and this will be under a
tenner, I’m sure!
Packaging:
The packaging resembles
a small book which houses geometrically placed 36 eye shadows. It comes with a
small mirror that comes in handy and sponge-y little eye applicators for
applying eye shadow in a jiffy, but I wouldn’t recommend this compact for
travelling as the lid is prone to opening. What I didn’t like was that the
claims are not mentioned and the eye shadows are not numbered or named.
Scent:
These smell just like
any other eye shadow, nothing too noticeable.
Pigmentation:
Most of the shades are
nicely pigmented, easily blend-able and not prone to fall out but I have
noticed that some of the shades are extremely powdery, hard to blend, poorly
pigmented and have a rough texture but with an eye shadow primer, it may
trigger the color to appear more vibrant.
Longevity:
These stay for 5 hours
on my lids and tend to settle into fine lines but my eyelids are quite oily, so
I would overlook this con.
My
Thoughts:
I love the beautiful
array of eye shadows in this kit and my most favorites ones are the brown, gold
ones and trust me; the bronze-y ones are so smooth, soft, long lasting and
really have great pigmentation. I am not really an eye shadow girl and I am totally
uninterested in what pros and cons an eye shadow provides for me. All I know is
this little palette has impressed me with its nice quality and amazing color
scheme. Overall, I would give it a rating of 4/5, not full, because some eye
shadows are totally disappointing, plus the ingredients, claims and names or
numbers of eye shadows are not mentioned. Nonetheless, this is a good palette
to have around.
Swatches:
Recommendation:
To everyone!
Would
I Repurchase?
No, because I’m not into
eye shadows.
Note:
I took the pictures of
the closed palette to show it to you from the outside. Unfortunately though,
every picture kept turning out to be one disaster after the other. I wonder why
white color is so hard to catch. Maybe, I need to invest in a good camera.
Have you tried this palette?
