It Cosmetics Eyeshadow Palette Review


"Naturally Pretty Matte Luxe Transforming Eyeshadow Palette" (long name!)
This new line of cosmetics isn't anything like your average products. They contain anti-aging benefits which includes hydrating age reverse, prevent complex infused with peptides, hydrolyzed collagen, silk, anti-oxidants and drops of light technology. Paraben-free, fragrance-free, sulfate-free, cruelty free.
While browsing at my local ULTA I came across the new palette and swatched the colors on the back of my hand. I was pleasantly surprised at the color payoff considering I didn't even use a primer. I figured if they looked that great without a primer, why not buy it and try it out? I'm glad I bought this because it's a keeper!
This is such a gorgeous palette with silky smooth pigmented colors that blend seamlessly. Although it's labeled as matte, I would consider these to have more of a satin finish. Unlike the UD "Naked" palettes which contain a lot of shimmer (I'm not a big fan), only one of the eyeshadows in the "Naturally Pretty" palette has a hint of shimmer which can be used to layer over any of the other colors to add shimmer. They feel as smooth as butter and there isn't much fallout. This factor is a huge plus in my book. The range of colors includes a variety of neutral shades - perfect for any skin tone. It takes the guess work out of which colors to use in creating a soft or bold "look". You can easily mix & match them to suit your taste. Oh muh goodness - I'm seriously loving their products so far!Below is a quick snapshot taken outdoors. I'll post more photos of swatches in different lighting later this week. If you're looking to add a great selection of colors to your makeup kit I highly recommend buying this one. It retails for $42.


My next review: "Bye-Bye Under Eye Anti-Aging Concealer" Aaaahhmazing!
