Elf Beauty Books in Neutral and Smoky.







Hi everyone! I HAVE to share these awesome palettes. Colors range from matte, to shimmery, or with lots of fine gorgeous glitter.

Texture: Like buttah. Fabulous quality, very smooth and very pigmented. Even without a primer.

Quality: I cannot believe they're DS. The quality is amazing.  And only $5 (at Target) for 12 huge shadows. Ugh, wow.

Packaging: Just ok. But for the price...*shrugs* I'll suck it up. They came with a plastic sheet to protect them but it got in the way. It was hard to use since I do my mu with a hand mirror so I would have to put down the mirror to move the sheet over with one hand and use the shadow with the other. So I cut it off.Comes with a double ended sponge applicator and a small black e/l.

This ones my fav of the two.




4th shadow in the top row came cracked. :(



Swatched over Avalon Organics Lavender lotion. It has lots of glycerin in it so works great as a primer for swatching.



Not completely neutral. But it's still a great palette.





I highly recommend these. They both have a great variety of colors to choose from. There's even a book with bright colors called Eye Bright for those of you who prefer bright colors.
Thanks for looking! :)

Love,
