Coastal Scents Ultra Shimmer Palette- Review

Coastal Scents Ultra Shimmer Palette- Review

Hey Everyone!

When I say I rely on this palette pretty much all the time I truly mean that. This palette was bought for me as a gift from my friend Katie and ever since I got given it I use it to death! It is an essential palette that every girl needs. It comes with 88 colours, a mirror and two dual-tipped foam applicators. A lot of people may think most of the colours in this palette aren't wearable but if you are someone like me who enjoys creating crazy, different looks and purely just loves to experiment with makeup then I would definitely recommend getting this palette from Coastal Scents. All the eyeshadows are very well pigmented and apply wonderfully onto the eye. Sometimes when you see palettes like this with lots of eyeshadows in you presume they wouldn't be the best of quality and come out very faint. I can honestly say the variety of colours are wonderful and I have now had this palette for over a year and none of them has hit the bottom of the pan. 

   The two applicators that come in the palette are average, ok if you are just wanting to practice. My advice would be to use your own eye brushes. When you first see the eyeshadows you are automatically taken back by the bright and fancy colours but you will see that there is still plenty of neutral shades that can be used for a day to day basis. Even though the eyeshadows are described as 'shimmery' I personally don't find them that shimmery. Some of the eyeshadows are a lot matter than others. You can order this palette from www.coastalscents.com .. on the website the pricing is all in dollars so you will have to go through the exciting process of converting dollars to pounds (tad annoying) but oh well... it is priced at 19.95 dollars so in pounds that's around £12.43. I think for what you are getting it is well worth the money. If you want a eye shadow palette in which you can just experiment with the Coastal Scents Ultra Shimmer Palette is the one to go for. Love it!







 At the moment Coastal Scents are having a sale so definitely go and check out their website!
