IT'S HERE!!!!!! MY COASTAL SCENTS PACKAGE CAME!



YAYYYY!!!  

Ok! So my package arrived today. I was so excited when I saw the Fed ex truck pull up. When I saw him get the package all I could think of was "please be careful."  I mean a lot of people have been saying that they received palettes with a broken shadow or 2 maybe more and I didn't want to be one of them. After signing I took it inside and started documenting with pictures as you will see.
 When I opened the box my first reaction was WOW well packed. Then I had to go through what seemed like tons of bubble wrap and packing paper. Then I got to 1 palette and more bubble wrap between the second and third.




When I finally got done with getting them out of the boxes and opening them, I was so surprised. I immediately loved the palettes. The colors are bright , the shadow pots are not big but I think for the price and the color options they are a generous size. Maybe a tad bit smaller than a dime if at all. The colors are highly pigmented and I think well worth the buy. I received 3 palettes, 2 shimmer 88 and 1 matte 88. 1 of the shimmers is to give to my younger sister who will also write a review.(soon I hope)




I haven't had time to play with the colors much but I know I will pretty soon. I love the palettes and the sample eye shadow that they sent. So Look out for eye shadow tutorials and color swatches. 


By the way I have decided not to purchase the 120 palette from Ebay for now because I am so happy with the 2  I have.

  2. I have used the original palette a few times now. I find that some of the colors that I have used are very chalky so I would definitely try and rectify that. My best bet was to use a foam applicator instead of a brush. I had to buy a white base to make a few of the colors really bright like how I wanted them. I haven't used the shimmer palette yet but I am actually going to do a look with it for youtube. So I'll update it when I do.
