Woo hoo! At last I've found a "neutral" palette that I absolutely adore - the MUA LUXE Pretty Edgy Eyeshadow Palette. I gave one of these away just last month, but it looked so gorgeous, I ordered two and kept one for myself ♥ The top row of shimmers are simply divine - silky smooth and with enough butteryness to make them rich and creamy, barely any fallout, and they're pure bliss to blend...
Thankfully it's now back in stock, and you can pick one up for the bargain price of $14.17. Here's a reminder of what the funky gold studded case looks like, front and back...
I love this SO much I'm tempted to play with it every other day, which is a first for me with what I would classify as a fairly neutral palette. The case is made of super strong glossy plastic, and there's a full-size mirror inside, so it's fab for travelling...
On the upper lid I used creamy white Antique on the inner corner, blended into preciously pale pink Toile, and finished with pinky red Lace, all applied over the top of Maybelline Color Tattoo in Pomegranate Punk...
On the outer corner and underneath the lower lashes I smudged purpley matte Wrath, and to tie everything together, I lined my waterline with a blend of ModelsPrefer Matte Black Kohl Pencil, and essence white kajal. All the mattes on the bottom row are sensational - not the least bit chalky, and the pigments are particularly potent...
Now you know I'm a colour freak, but I'm loving this palette because there's enough hue variety to keep me interested, and the pinks are amazingly flattering, even on my old eyes. The mix of toning mattes and shimmers is an inspired one - the best of both worlds ♥
In short, I can't recommend this palette highly enough - the quality of every part of it is outstanding, it's incredibly cheap, and I can't imagine any gal not loving it as much as I do ♥
Take care of you,

This palette looks great! I love the colours in the top row and the pigmentation is quite impressive. Gorgeous EOTD :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah darling - it's a real beauty hon, I'm super impressed with the mattes ♥
DeleteIt IS flattering. I'd do something like this with a bright red lippie.
ReplyDeleteI wish my scleras were as white as yours.
Well funnily enough I wore red lipstick on this particular day hon, but the selfies I took were atrocious! And if it's any consolation, my right eye is riddled with red veins in the outer section, which is why I never EVER photograph it in closeup :-(
Deleteyour look compliments your eye colour. well done
ReplyDeleteAilyn sweetie, thanks so much - I reckon these shadows would look great on anyone :-)
DeleteThere's some lovely colours in this one... Onto my wishlist it goes!
ReplyDeleteIt's so pretty mayday - I don't know how they do it for the price ♥
DeleteOh gosh. It is such a beautiful palette. And what an amazing price! I adore all the shades found within its pretty jeweled packaging. It must be special if you want to use it every other day. You have such a huge shadow collection Kats so to be wanting to use the same shadows nearly every day says something!
ReplyDeleteLove your eye creation too. It's neutral but with a touch of Kat love ♥♥
My treasure Gemma, bless you sweetheart - you KNOW I'm crazy for colour, but these shadows are just so dreamy creamy - think I'll do all soft pinks next time ♥
DeleteThis is such a beautiful look Kat! You're so talented :)
