I don't know where it's from or how my neighbour got it. She doesn't remember either. After googling it, I found out it's from Pakistan. Which makes sense, because my dear neighbour is from Pakistan. If anyone recognizes it, please tell me if there are more of these palettes and how I can get them!
Here are some pictures of the palette. As you can see, I've been playing with the colours, so the palette isn't intact anymore.
The colours in daylight. Maybe you can see why I wasn't that enthusiastic in the beginning.
The colours with flash.
You might think that it looks like makeup for children. At least, that's what I thought. Wait until you see the swatches.
Swatches of the first row
Swatches of the second row
I used flash on both pictures. Look at how pigmented the eyeshadows are. I only used one swipe for the swatches. The only two that aren't as pigmented as the rest are the 9th colour of the top row and the 4th colour of the bottom row. But wow, I'm in love! It's just a weird colour combination that they put in the palette. I think that's the reason why I wasn't enthusiastic at first. But the colours are amazing and last all day! I mean look at that neon green one. If that isn't pigmented...
All the colours are shimmery. I love me some shimmer! I did find a down side: the black isn't as pigmented as I wished it was. And it has a different structure as the other colours. It's harder and less easy to get colour on my brush.
After discovering the amazing palette, you have to understand that I had to do an eye look. So here it is! Usually I put a little picture tutorial of how I did the look, but this time I didn't, because I was just testing the palette without really being aware of it.
If anyone wants a tutorial of this makeup look, I'd love to do it! So let me know :)

And now........ Black eyepencil! If you follow my blog for a while you know I'm a huge fan of white eyepencil on my waterline instead of black. I used to wear black a lot when I was 15 or 16. Now I just can't get used to it anymore and I think it looks funny on me. But with darker looks I do like to use more black.
You be the judge!
So, what do you think of me and black eyepencil? Which do you like better: black or white?
If you would like a picture tutorial on how I did this look, let me know.
Hope you liked the look!

ReplyDeleteYou look so pretty Sal! I absolutely love the gold and black eyeshadows you have on. You did an awesome job with the blending as well.
ReplyDeleteI think black eyeliner looks great on you! I find that the girls that like black eyeliner on their weaterline don't usually like the look of white eyeliner on their waterline (which is like me. The few times I have tried white on my waterline it look awful and I had to remove it before walking out the door). And I find that girls that like white eyeliner on their waterline don't like black eyeliner on their waterline. I'm sure you pull off both colours on your waterline nicely :)
I haven't heard of that brand of eyeshadow before but that's so sweet that your neighbour gave you the palette :) The colours are very vibrant and pigmented!
Haha some of these 'paki' palettes r deceivingly bloody good! lov the look u created x
