L.A. Colors Eyeshadows (12 Color Palette and 5 Color Matte Palette)

Hello my Mind Palace friends!
I have finally returned. My health took a bit of bump in August hence the lack of posting. However, I am finally feeling better, and finally able to return to blogging. Thank you all for your patience.

Today's post is going to be about some gem eyeshadow palettes from L.A. Colors. L.A. Colors is an inexpensive, and cruelty free brand, that makes some amazing products. In a few of my previous posts, I mentioned a L.A. Color Eyeshadow Pot as my go-to transition shade, and general favourite blending colour; (shade name is Bare Mauve). I recently purchased the 5 Color Matte Palette in Brown Tweed for TT$15; and was gifted the 12 Color Eyeshadow Palette in Brown Buzz last December for Secret Santa.

12 Color Eyeshadow Palette 

Starting with Brown Buzz, I was blown away with how beautifully these eyeshadows applied and blended. I used this palette predominantly in my Toph Bei Fong inspired Makeup Play look. These shadows are pigmented and soft, and blend like a dream. The palette has a mix of shimmer, and satin finishes, which makes it incredibly easy to use. I will link the Makeup Play post where I used this palette at the end of the post.

5 Color Matte Eyeshadow Palette

An all matte eyeshadow palette that is inexpensive, pigmented, and easy to blend! Sounds too good to be true, but alas L.A. Color killed it. Whether you want a simple look for every day, or want to go smokey glam; this little palette can do it. If you work or go to school, i assure you this little palette will become an essential, as it makes doing your makeup on a morning easy and effortless. This is also a great complementary palette to own, since it will be easy to work in any single eyeshadow you own to produce a multitude of looks. I will be doing more looks incorporating this palette in the upcoming weeks, so stay tuned to my Instagram.

Concluding Remarks
Both of these palettes have beautifully pigmented eyeshadows, that blend easily, and that do not make your wallet cry. I find myself reaching for the 5 Color Matte Palette whenever I do eyeshadow, so it is a product that can very easily sneak into your everyday makeup essentials. I am planning on purchasing more of the Matte Palettes in order to determine the consistency throughout the line, and I may do a full dedicated post about them in the future.

Thank you all for stopping by, and I hope you have a wonderful day.
I will see you all again very soon. Stay happy, healthy and positive until next time!
Bye (^_^)/
