Hey “BD beauties”!
I’m coming to you today with another post part of the Makeup
101 segment i started recently! You can read the previous post of this segment
HERE. I figured one of the things beginners suffer with when starting off with
makeup is trying to get the right products. With all these makeup items in the
market, it can be pretty overwhelming! I would recommend you purchasing eye
shadow palettes when you start out as they are the most cost effective makeup
products with variety!

Even with eye shadow palettes, you can see many! The brands I
would recommend are BH cosmetics and Coastal scents. Bothe put out almost
identical palettes with very similar quality. If you like in the US or Europe,
you might find this cheap. However, if you’re like me and live in Asia I would
suggest you purchase these off of ebay or other Asian based companies like
tmart.com. I find these way cheaper than coastal scents or BH cosmetics and
they provide the same products without a brand name.
The palette I would recommend you get is the 168 eyeshadow
palette (REVIEW HERE). If you’re a huge lover of neutral shades, I would also recommend
the 28 neutral eyeshadow palette (REVIEW HERE).
The 168 eye shadow palette

I bought this for $16.74
This is my favourite palette! Though I’m no longer a beginner,
I find myself gravitating towards this palette a lot often than my single
products. Because of its versatility, it makes a tutorial easier for me as I do
not have to dig in various products and mess up my makeup table (I anyway do
end up having a messy table -_-). Why this palette is a favourite for me, is
because it has 2 layers of colours one of which is more towards neutrals and
the other has more brighter options this way you can do your daily neutral eye
at the same time, experiment with color which most girls are scared of!

The 28 neutral eye shadow palette

I bought this for $9.49
This palette is the go to palette for an everyday look! It has
all the shades you would need, the brow bone highlight, the crease colour, the
definition shades and so on! it has a lovely champagne for the lids, and an extremely
pigmented plum shade which is my favourite shade from this palette. The only
thing i which it had was a rich matte black shade as I use lack for almost all
my looks! However, if you sure that you would never wear color, and that
neutral is your way to go, i would suggest you purchase this instead of the 168
shadow palette. The size of the shadow is comparable to a standard MAC eye
shadow, which is pretty good.

Overall if you have the money, I would definitely tell you
to go for both the palettes! They are such a great deal and if you’re lucky you
might even get them cheaper than the price i got them for!
Hope this post helped all my lovely beginners out there!
