Almay Shadow Softies

Almay Shadow Softies Review and Swatchfest

Here is a general overview and swatches of all 12 shades of the Almay Shadow Softies. Overall, these are fairly sheer but they apply evenly and are easy to blend out. The shimmer shades look great on their own and all the shades work well as eyeshadow bases.

NYX Adorable Eyeshadow Palette Review and Swatches

NYX Adorable Eyeshadow Palette is an inexpensive, mostly-neutral eyeshadow palette containing six eyeshadows. 4 of them are matte and 2 have glitter. What makes this one different than other neutral palettes is the inclusion of a baby pink eyeshadow. In general the shadows are sheer but do have plenty of color payoff when used with a primer.

It Cosmetics Naturally Pretty Palette Review and Swatches

I’ve been testing this for quite a while because I couldn’t decide whether I liked it or not. I think I was in denial about the quality not being quite up to snuff because after all it is a handy palette full of neutral matte eyeshadows – and I LOVE that concept. But I feel like I HAVE to use a primer if I want it to look good and I have to blend very carefully because they can have a tendency to look patchy on they eyelid. And yet, I still reach for it because I like the colors and it’s convent having them all together in one palette! Argh, I still have such an internal conflict but I want to get this review out, so here it is.
