Forever 21 Love and Beauty 12 eyeshadow palette review and swatches
I have raved and raved about these eyeshadow's before from the Love and Beauty line that is carried at Forever 21 and on their website www.forever21.com, so here is another palette from their collection that I am totally impressed by. If you haven't see my review's you should really check out my youtube page and see all the great reviews I have posted thus far. Oh yeah.... they are cruelty free :)
Here is another really great palette for the price from this line. $5.80 is the price point, and it's worth every penny. The pigmentation on these shades is very good ( a couple of the shades are a little "soft" but I can work with that for the price). You just can't go wrong with these palette's. They have lots of color options, and they are easy to blend and are quite pigmented.

Do you own any of the makeup/beauty items carried by forever 21? What do you think about them?

Milani Limited Edition True Love trio True Romance and single shadows in Caramel Brown and Brown Stone
Here is a quick posting about the Milani limited edition True Love trio in the color True Romance
I purchased this trio from the milani webiste.. here is a link to the trio in case you are interested in picking it up for yourself http://www.milanicosmetics.com/p-139-pure-love-eyeshadow-trio.aspx
These eyeshadows are very pigmented. I love the highlight shade. It's a really unique grey(ish) iridescent color that is really pretty. It's great for a brow highlight and inner corner highlight
I also picked up 2 of the single shadows.
Brown Stone and Caramel Brown. The pigmentation on these colors are really great quality. I love the Caramel Brown shade, It's a beautiful metallic shade. It's very similar to half baked from the urban decay naked palette (just not as dark)
These shadows were $5.99 each
Here is a link to the powder eyeshadows
there are several colors to choose from ( I saw a posting on the black shadow and it was SUPER pigmented)

New L'oreal Color Riche quad's Rose for Romance and So Over It.
Have you seen the new L'oreal Color Riche quad's? I picked up a couple of them to try and I must say.. these are some pretty nice little quad's. The eyeshadows are very pigmented and the staying power is pretty good. (I always use a primer)
I picked up two of the palette's from Walgreens recently #105 rose for romance and #817 so over it
Check out my youtube video for a review on each palette http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Egvaa3vCeuU
and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4W1oWfAlQKw
Rose for romance has a really pretty rose/pink metallic color as the main color, then it has a shimmering metallic pink as the highlight shade, a mid-toned taupe/purple shade that can be used as a crease color or even an all over lid color and then a dark jade/black sparkle as the outer V shade.
So Over It- It has a really amazing metallic golden bronze shade as the main color, a golden iridescent highlight shade, a duochrome reddish/brown shade and a super dark burgandy that almost appears dark brown. I know I am not much on describing these colors, but you can check out my review on my youtube channel for swatches and my review.
Overall, I would give these palette's an 8 out of 10 just taking 2 points off for the soft shadows (tend to have fallout) This can easily be cleaned up though.. So don't be scared of them. The color pay off is well worth the hassle.
Urban Decay Naked Palette DUPE! Quo back to basics palette
Anyone looking for an affordable dupe for the UD Naked Palette? My friend from Youtube (Joanne) sent me this amazing limited edition palette from the brand Quo. It's a drugstore brand sold in Canada.
The price of the palette for you folks living over the pond is CAD25 versus the UD Naked Palette coming in at a whopping CAD60.
If you have the chance to get this palette, I would highly suggest picking it up. It's AMAZING
I think for as close as these two palette's are, it would make sense to save your money and purchase the Quo palette instead. (Unless you just have the have the UD palette) It's okay, I completely understand. But.. for those of you who are on a beauty budget, this is the way to go.
A full review of the palette is on my youtube channel. click the link here for the review: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pw-9bqdhSI

L'oreal Infallible eyeshadows - my one true love
I have been loving the new L'oreal infallible line of 24 hour shadows. They seem to be the only eyeshadow's that I have been reaching for here the past few weeks.
I have heard that they will be releasing some limited edition shadows in France.. I really really want to get my hands on them... if anyone knows how I can get them let me know. I have heard there is a shadow being released for the Cannes Film Festival called Cosmic Black.. I want that one most of all
Do you own these shadows? If so let me know what your favorites are.
Thanks for stopping by
