Review Bag: Maybelline Color Pearls Eyeshadow

         


While I was out, I decided to pick up some of Maybelline's EyeStudio Color Pearls eye-shadows. I've seen them tons of times, but never wanted to pick them up. Something about them caught my eye today so I picked up two and decided to review them. They are Teal Takeover and Ivy Icon.

I love the cases. They are super cute and appear to be really sturdy. The only issue I think I will have with it is excess powder falling over the sides because the eye-shadow is rounded above the holder rather than just pushed into it. 

I also LOVE how the lids can be pulled all the way back to tilt the eye-shadow for easier access. 

Teal Takeover

Bare Swatches: Teal Side, Marble Side, Marble on top of Teal

Ivy Icon

Bare Swatches: Ivy Side, Marble Side, Marble on top of Ivy

Overall, I really like the colors. My favorite is the Teal Takeover. I wish the marble side on the Ivy Icon was a bit more contrasting. It's pretty much the Ivy color mixed with a tad bit of orange. There's a slight difference, but not much. The swatches are just the shadow and no primer. These colors already pop on their own, but a primer would really make them pop. A tutorial with these colors will hopefully be up by the end of the week.

I'm BACK!!!!!!

Hey!!! I started this blog last year and stopped. I left it and didn't come back until now. School started and I had lost interest in make-up for a little while. Eventually it beckoned me back and I've been doing some major practicing. I'm ready to show you guys what I've got, so let's do this!!!

Technology

     Bare with me you guys. Currently, I have not-so-good cameras. However I'm happy that I have cameras at all. Thankfully I'm getting an HD camera for my upcoming 16th birthday. I can't wait until then to start uploading videos, so we're gonna have to deal with the not-so-good pic and video quality.  

If for some reason you want to know...
