I found this eyeshadow palette in wilko quite a few months ago before I went on holiday to London, I thought it would be easier to travel with as normal eyeshadow palettes are quite bulky and a hassle to take with you, unfortunately I misplaced it before I went away so took my usual make up revolution palette. However, I recently found it and realised how good and pigmented it is! Even without an eye primer.
I like to begin by using the lighter brown shade on the bottom left all over the base for a bit of colour on the lid. I then use the dark brown colour in the crease for definition and contouring of the eye and blend it. The dark brown also creates a smokey effect which is the name of the palette. I then go ahead and use the lighter right hand colour in the inner corner of the eye. I actually apply this using the little applicator you get with it, the other shades I apply using real techniques make up brushes.
Swatches with just one swipe!
As I am writing this blog, I realise that the palette has instructions on how to apply the eyeshadow so I shall try that out and take a photo and try how I do it and take a picture and see how different they look 🙂
Here we go, the results on the left hand side is the way the palette tells you to apply it and on the right is how I normally do my make up, I think they are quite different looks, but I prefer the more natural looking side
I feel like this eyeshadow has good pigmentation for £2.50 however there is a lot of fall out so just keep that in mind if you do your eyes after foundation.
