When it comes to eye shadows, I like palettes. In fact I love palettes. I do have plenty of single eye shadows, but you simply cannot beat a good palette with a choice of colours in it that work well together. They save space and they are quick and easy to use. I often tend to forget about the single eye shadows that I have, they are all housed in my storage together and It can be a pain rooting through trying to find the one I want. Apart from my Estee Lauder ones that is. They are a permanent fixture in my every day make up bag.
The two newest palettes to be added to my growing collection are The Eye collections from Make up Artist Sue Moxley's brand, Famous.
L to R - Smokey Plum, Must Have.

I am really impressed by these shadows. They are silky smooth and very well pigmented. They apply beautifully and are very easy to blend. The price is also a bonus, with them costing only £9.00. For 4 shadows I definitely class that as a bargain! £2.25 a shadow! As you can see from the swatches above, all the shadows go really nice together. My favourite of the two palettes is Must Have. Its perfect for when Im in a rush and have literally 10 minutes to get ready. Quick application of the lighter brown, over my lid and just above my crease, then the darker applied deeply in the crease. Perfect!
If you haven't tried one of the Famous palettes, I'd recommend having a few swatches next time you're in Superdrug, where the range is stocked.
If you have tried anything from the range, drop me a comment below and let me know your thoughts. I'm keen for some recommendations because Im really pleased so far!
That blue (purple?) colour in the first swatch photo is beautiful :D
ReplyDeleteim so fussy with colours i dont have a palette but thanks for the tip, im going to check these out :) x
ReplyDeleteI'll have to agree with SilhouetteScreams, that blue-ish purple is amazing, I love colors like that!! :)
ReplyDeleteI bought a few items the other day at Superdrug. 3 items for £8, bargain.
ReplyDeleteI ended up getting a pallete and I absolutely love them. These eyeshadows stay on for hours and hours and are still vibrant. I went out the other night and I woke up in the morning to find that the eyeshadow still stayed on well.
Definetly worth getting this brand <3 I love it.
My local Superdrug has everything in this line half price at the moment so I picked up some bits, including the Face palette which has 18 shadows in it. Only £6! x
