Prestige Baked Eyeshadow Trios

Lately, have you noticed the tonnes of eyeshadows being thrown our way, no mall is safe...seriously. I'm not even talking about the giants like MAC or Urban Decay, but the little guys, like the this particular one make it hard to resist not picking up the entire range. It's amazing how the brain can process what shade to pick from the colossal range within the budget you have allocated yourself...

And so when I was looking at the color range, I was surprised to see how well put together the color schemes were. I already knew I wanted at least one trio from this brand, but hey, self control...not my strong suit...ended up getting 2....don't judge me...I know what you're thinking :-)

Trio in 01 Desert 

Trio in 02 Forest

They had a pink and purple and blue also.

Price: I bought these a while back on sale for about 30 dhs each. The original price is closer to 45 dhs.

Packaging: The three eyeshadows are baked, so they are domed and the lid is transparent. The three shades do not have defined lines.

Product: Baked eyeshadows tend not to be very soft, and these ones are no exception but, the fall out is minimal and the color is intense. With primer these come of a such pretty shimmery shades. With a primer these last you a decent amount of time. Not as long as MAC or UD but fair enough.

Swatches from the Desert Trio

All have a shimmery finish and give you basic lid, crease and highlight color. The colors compliment each other perfectly. This particular trio would be perfect for South Asian brides. You'd only need a black matte shadow to define.

Swatches from the Forest Trio

This green trio is also so sweet and good for spring. The greens are not overly dramatic so easily wearable. The last dark shade has a dual effect going on giving a gold sheen when the light hits.

Again these are without a primer. With a primer they look more saturated and glowy.

Being tiny and compact, they are ideal to carry around with you.
