Packaging:-
The palette comes in a black slim case. The plastic case although very sleek but not so sturdy. If you drop you might break the eyeshadows. The palette has no mirror or brush in it.

My Experience:-

The palette is a mixture of all possible neutrals shades. There are mixed shades of matte, satin and shimmers shades. The shades are medium pigmented.It takes little effort to intensely applying the shades on the eye. The shades are easy to blends and they have fewer fallouts. The eyeshadows are good for beginners only but if you are a pro then you might not get that satisfactory result the way you wanted and need to work a little bit more to get that desired shades on eyelids. The eyeshadows stay pretty 5 hours good on my eyelid without any primer. But these shades work best with primer. Bh cosmetics eyeshadows are good but not better. I wish the brand work little bit on eyeshadow formula rather than on packaging only.
 

That's all for today. See you in my next post :)

REVIEW AND SWATCHES OF JUVIA'S PLACE ZULU PALETTE

Hey everyone,

As palette reviewing series going on these days and as I am on little break for YouTube now (my voice choked due to cold) so giving rest to my voice and putting effort through fingers let's start today's review.

Today's talk of the post is the new JUVIA'S PLACE ZULU PALETTE.

The brand Juvia's place never disappoints me when it comes to trying out their any new palette like NUBIAN 2 or  MASQUERADE one. All those palettes have awesome pigmentation. So when Juvia's place launches a new palette named ZULU PALETTE, I was pretty sure that I had to grab this colorful one too.

Price:- $17.50 in the Juvia's place website.
            Instagram seller price:- Rs.1800/- - Rs.2000/- approx.

Availability:- In the Juvia's place website (https://www.juviasplace.com/products/the-zulu-eye-shadow-palette), Instagram sellers.

Packaging:-

The palette comes in a white color packaging with a same Egyptian figure on top of the box (which is holographic one) and on the top of the palette cover too. The palette has no mirror and brush. The palette close with a magnetic closure. Overall the packaging is sleek, small and easy to carry while traveling.

My experience:-

The Juvia's place Zulu palette is a limited edition palette which is still available on their website along with most Instagram sellers. The palette draws my attention only because of the presence of all vibrant eyeshadows. The palette has a mixture of both matte and shimmers vibrant shades. The eyeshadows are not chalky at all and have a smooth texture which looks super pigmented when swatching with fingers. The eyeshadows blend easily on the eyelid and there is hardly any fallouts.The palette is perfect to create some artistic exotic day and night look. The eyeshadows stay pretty 7-8 hours on my eyelids without any primer.
Overall I am just loving the palette. So, if you are an eyeshadow lover and love funky and bold colors on lid then definitely you can check this one out ;)

That's all for today.
Until next time...
Love Sammy :*

REVIEW AND SWATCHES OF URBAN DECAY NAKED SMOKEY PALETTE :-

"The smoked out look with subtle shimmer on eyes is the trend of this festive season. As metallic lips are so "IN" now so to match to it that subtle shimmery eyes are giving competition too. It should be one thing at a time, either lips or eyes focus in makeup. So, I choose eyes today as I already did metallic lips here and in this tutorial here to show you the trend of metallic lips."


Yeah, today I am going to talk about my recent buy from URBAN DECAY cosmetics. After buying the whole lot of URBAN DECAY NAKED 2 and 3 PALETTE (see my haul here) as I have Urban decay naked 1 palette, I thought my collection ends here as these palettes already made a hole in my pocket. But at that moment URBAN DECAY  was having a flash sale for one day where URBAN DECAY SMOKED PALETTE was half of its original price. I was not sure how to grab that offer at that moment. But luckily one Instagram seller was taking pre-order for this palette for one day and without a second thought, I grab this palette from her.


Price:- $54 in urban decay website, I grab it in Rs.3100/- for one day sale.

Availability:- On urban decay website, URBAN DECAY doesn't ship to India. But you can grab it from Instagram sellers, I bought mine from LACHICWIK Instagram sellers.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION FROM THE BRAND (from website) :-

The key to nailing the most sought-after and elusive eye look ever? Naked Smoky—loaded with ALL the essentials you need for the perfect neutral smoky eye. A true range of shades. The perfect brushes. And detailed tutorials.

We packed this palette with a dozen sultry, smoky neutrals, including nine never-before-seen shades and three exclusives from past palettes. Experiment with warm bronzes, dimensional grays, rich browns, gorgeous taupes and deep black. From mattes and satins to shades with sparkle, Naked Smoky has it all. Each shade in Naked Smoky features our Pigment Infusion System™, the proprietary blend of ingredients that gives every shade its velvety texture, rich color, serious staying power, and bendability.

Ever buy a beauty product and then realize you have no idea how to use it? Naked Smoky makes sultry, come-hither eyes totally doable. The detailed lookbook breaks down four amazing ways to get Naked and smoky, and our exclusive double-ended brush (with a Tapered Crease Brush on one end and a Smoky Smudger Brush on the other) makes application easy.

The case and brush feature a cool floating smoke effect, with “Naked Smoky” in gunmetal foil. To add to the mysterious vibe, we set the shadow pans in a smoky transparent base. The magnetic closure on the case prevents shadow mishaps in your bag, and the full-size mirror makes it easy to get Naked whenever the urge strikes.

What you see is what you get: High (champagne shimmer w/micro-glitter), Dirtysweet (medium bronze), Radar (metallic taupe w/iridescent micro-glitter), Armor (metallic silver-taupe w/tonal sparkle), Slanted (light metallic gray), Dagger (medium charcoal w/micro-shimmer), Black Market (jet-black satin), Smolder (deep plum-taupe), Password (cool taupe matte), Whiskey (rich brown matte), Combust (soft pink-taupe) and Thirteen (light beige satin).

Packaging:-

 

The smoked out the gray color of the outer carton and on the upper lid of the palette designed with much care. The name "NAKED SMOKY" emboss on the palette with silver mirror design that you can fee the words if you touch it. "It look like those secret box of magic".

The entire packaging just true to the name of the palette. The eyeshadow case is little heavy and the lid close with a magnetic closer. It comes with a mirror and with a dual ended brush which is much useful one (I use that brush only from the palette to create this eye look). 

My experience:-

 

When we talk about eyeshadows, URBAN DECAY makes some highest quality of eyeshadows. In another word, URBAN DECAY eyeshadows are best eye shadows in this makeup world. So it is quite obvious that the eyeshadows in this palette are at its best quality. All the shades are super pigmented. All eyeshadows can be applied on the lower lashline area too, as there is no restriction like URBAN DECAY ELECTRIC PALETTE (reviewed here) .

They are easily blendable. No fallouts and no chalkiness in any shades. The eyeshadows in the palette are nicely coordinated with each other and with the name "SMOKY" of the palette. The eyeshadow remains 7 hours plus approx. on my oily eyelids without any smudging or fading. They are easy to remove too thus no irritation on the eye while removing it. 

"Over in all if you are a smokey eye look lover and want to create some bold looks then this palette is must have in your stash. A PERFECT PALETTE TO CREATE DIFFERENT SMOKY EYE LOOK."

 
Finally, here are the few pictures of the palette along with the swatches and an eye look created by only this palette and for lips I use MAC COSMETICS LIPSTICK ABLAZE (reviewed here ) which is just perfect for this FESTIVE/HOLIDAY season.

That's all for today and I will see you soon on my next post :)

Till then stay blessed.

Oriflame Beauty Color Pro Eye Shadow Trio Smokey Brown

Hi,

    Previously i reviewed oriflame make -up palette through which you can go for smoky black eyes and nude lips...to know more click here:

http://samannita.blogspot.in/2012/07/oriflame-marcel-make-up-palette-review.html

 Okay coming back to my today's new eye shadow..Yes,you heard it right...my new eye shadow :) as i am a die heart fan of smoky eyes so i keep buying smoky eye shadow of different brands..this time my haul is oriflame beauty color pro eye shadow trio in smokey brown..

here is the snap of it...

It comes in a blue cover,inside of which is a black small case  having three shades along with two medium quality applicator which i don't recommend to use it ! i just love the small handling case :)

 The product claims:

Professional quality eye shadow gives a spectacular finish and blends easily.six palettes to choose from,each containing three beautifully pre-matched shades for any look you desire.include two high quality applicator for expert definition.2.7g

.

I brought the smoky brown shade( code:22919) at some discount (i didn't remember yet as they use to change the percentage of discount every month)it's actual price is Rs.449/-

Below is the swatches of the eye shadow 

My personal feeling regarding this eye shadow....

Good Things:

• nice packaging
• travel friendly
• long stay
• pigmented
• get the exact color in just 2 swipes without using eye primer
• little pocket friendly when in discount !!!

Bad Things:

• should have some shimmering effect,as it is matte finish

I didn't find any bad things except the shimmering effect..!!!

Will i recommend buying ? 50-50...because i personally didn't like those matte finish smoky eyes..but if you are a lover of matte look eye shadow then you must grab it..!

Have you tried any shades of this eye shadow of oriflame yet???
feel free to post your review...
till then see yaa !
