Eye Shadow -MAC - Paint Pot in Idyllic
rated 4 of 5
Bucephala 2/11/2012 7:07:00 PM

This is a beautiful paint pot that really makes blue eyes pop. I think that if the Cranberry shadow was a paint pot, this would be it. I like to use this one as a base in the Fall. It's limited edition so hopefully they will re-promote it!

Eye Shadow -MAC - Paint Pot - Nubile
rated 5 of 5

I love this paint pot. It's perfect for when I do a "no make up" look. I put it on my lids and then lightly blend a light brown shadow into the crease.

Eyes -E.L.F. - 32 shadow palette
rated 1 of 5
Bucephala 2/11/2012 6:45:00 PM

Horrible! The shadows are chalky, sheer and hard to work with. I'd rather spend more money and get beautiful, smooth shadows. Some of the colours in here are weird too. These's chunky glitter. I'll be giving this to my niece to play with.

Eye Shadow -Maybelline - Color Tattoo 24hr Cream Gel Shadow in Bad to the Bronze / on and on bronze
rated 4 of 5

I think that this is the only one in the bunch that is wearable for me. TAT made me look bruised. I really like this cream shadow but it's not as nice as the MUFE aqua creams. These color tattoos don't become part of the skin like the aqua creams do. But for a drugstore cream shadow, this is amazing. And the color of this one is really pretty and looks great on blue eyes.

Eyes -Make Up For Ever - Aqua Creams (Multi-Purpose)
rated 5 of 5
Bucephala 2/11/2012 6:21:00 PM

I love these! I have one in #12 (golden copper). I like to wear it in the summer, especially if I'm going to a pool or the beach. I wish I had this when I went on a vacation down south. It would have been perfect. I have slightly oily lids and this didn't crease at all. I'm going to get at least one more of these. I like the consistency better than the Maybelline color tattoos.

I love this colour for the lid. It's beautiful! I got this as part of a free gift with purchase but I'm going to buy it when I run out.

Eye Shadow -Estee Lauder - Signature Eyeshadow Quad Amber Honey

I got this as a free gift and I would consider getting the full size quad. These shadows are wearable everyday and they are very flattering.

Eye Shadow -NYX - Trio 07 Baby Blue Pacific Navy
rated 4 of 5
Bucephala 2/11/2012 5:57:00 PM

I don't like to spend a lot of money on colourful shadows because I don't wear them that often. So when I want to do a colourful look, I turn to NYX. The two lighter shades in this trio are great. They are smooth, pretty and pigmented. The darkest shade was a little disappointing. It wasn't quite dark enough but I can work with it. I might get a dark blue MAC shadow like Deep Truth for my crease instead. I'd still repurchase this trio for the other two colours though!

Eye Shadow -NYX - Trio TS37 - Shangri-La
rated 5 of 5
Bucephala 2/11/2012 5:45:00 PM

I wanted to do a summery sunset shadow look and was looking for an orange and a yellow. It was cheaper to buy the trio than to buy two single shadows so I went for it. I'm glad that I did because the peach shade in the trio is beautiful too. I accomplished the look that I was going for. These are great shadows.

rated 5 of 5
Bucephala 2/11/2012 5:37:00 PM

I absolutely love these trios. This is the first one that I ever picked up and I love the colours. They are so smooth and pigmented. They look great with blue eyes. This is my favourite trio for the Fall.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Outre
rated 5 of 5
Bucephala 2/11/2012 5:18:00 PM

This one was a big surprise for me! It looks kind of ugly in the pan but it's a great crease colour. It's especially nice if you have blue eyes. I like blending it with Mulch. It's a wonderful Fall colour. If it's in a future collection, give it a chance and it may surprise you.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Brule
rated 5 of 5
Bucephala 2/11/2012 5:14:00 PM

Love love love! This is great for a subtle brow highlight or a base shadow to neutralize your lids. It also blends out other colours very nicely. This is a staple in my MAC palette.

Eye Shadow -NYX - ballerine dream
rated 3 of 5
Bucephala 2/11/2012 5:01:00 PM

This one should be titled "Ballerina" Dream (not ballerine). I don't really like the chunky glitter in this one. There are way nicer pinks out there. It's okay, but I wouldn't buy it again.

Eye Shadow -NYX - Hot Pink
rated 4 of 5
Bucephala 2/11/2012 4:49:00 PM

Not "hot" pink but a nice shade of pink. Looks nice as an outer lid colour when you put a lighter pink on the inner lid. It blends nicely like all NYX shadows. There are some prettier pinks out there but this one is pretty good, especially for a drugstore colour.

Eye Shadow -NYX - Burgundy Pearl
rated 5 of 5

Of the NYX single shadows I've tried so far, this one is my favourite. It is such a pretty colour! It makes a lovely crease colour and blends out so nicely! This one is a must-have!
