This review is going to be of the 168 colour eye shadow
palette . This is
a a palette you can get off of many websites for a really cheap price but this
one by far the price I have seen. A
palette with various choices is always great if you’re a beginner of even a
makeup artist and this just way above variety. It has shades ranging from warm
to cool colours. It also has a variety of blue’s, green’s, brown’s, pink’s etc.
basically all the colours under the rainbow!
My experience with it
In palettes like this, it’s always a hit or miss with
colours and it’s the same with this. Not every single colour will be pigmented.
Some would be sheer, some wouldn’t show up at all and some would be the most
pigmented colours ever. Especially for the price I think that’s acceptable.
The scent is nothing significant to worry about and the
longevity of the shadows is pretty great especially if you have a primer
underneath! The shadows are a little bit chalky however but isn’t bad to the
point where there won’t be anything left on the lid. The shadows are extremely
bendable which is important with any powder makeup. You can definitely create
any look with these, may it be a dramatic one of a simple neutral look.
The size of each shadow is kind of small in my opinion and
also I find a lot of similar colours in the palette. The packaging of the
palette is kind of tacky. The shadow trays aren’t attached to the palette but
instead it comes off. This might be good in a way if you are a makeup artist
and want to carry you shades in your hand while you work. The palette does however
get dirty pretty fast and would need frequent cleaning.
This is a product you can find in various sites online.
Coastal scents & BH cosmetics also sell these but buying them from eBay and
tmart.com would definitely cut the cost down considerable!

How i apply it
I definitely would need a variety of eye makeup brushes to apply this. But i would recommend using non- synthetic brush as this would pick up more colour and apply better
Summary of my opinions

Sleek packaging not bulky if you travel a lot
Has all the colours you would ever need to create any type

Conclusion
I would definitely recommend this product to you. The CON’S
of this products aren’t anything much to worry about. 168 colours are a great
variety for anyone and when it comes with such a great price, that unbeatable!
