£1 Eyeshadows (and there pretty great )


  Dealz and Pounland have recently started selling a inexpensive make up brand called Make up Gallery . If it wasn't for the good comments on there products I probably would have never give theses eyeshadows the time of day because I would think for £1 how could they make a decent eyeshadow ? 
Well I was proven wrong and makes me wonder about the brands with bad quality eyeshadows that are  expensive . If a brand can make a good eyeshadow and sell it for £1 surely a more expensive eyeshadow for a high range brand have no excuse for having a chrappy eyeshadow . 


(without primer)

The eyeshadows are nicely pigmented(as you can see from the picture above and thats with no primer underneath)  , good texture , blends nicely . The only bad thing about this product is that it does tend to have fall out but if you do you do your eyeshadow before your foundation you can just remove the fallout . The packaging is very compact and suprisingly very sturdy . 

There is a selection of colours and finishes from matte to shimmer . Most of the colours are earthy tones theres not much vibrant colours . I bought two eyeshadows one was matte black and the other was matte plum . I am getting a lot of use out of them both . The plum is perfect in the crease of the eye to create depth . The black is a nice staple for anyones make up kit . My friend also has the bronzer and its  amazing so I will definitely getting one of those . 

For £1 theses are definitely worth purchasing ! Theres not much you can get theses days for £1 .

So there you have it a small review on Poundland eyeshadows . Have you tried any products from the Make up Gallery , if so let me know what you thought in the comments below .

Thanks for reading , hope you all enjoyed .

Make up Geek Eyeshadows , Worth the Hype ?


Hey everyone , so as you can see my organising didn't really go to plan . In my last blogpost I mentioned that my next blog post would be a loreal true match foundation review . My laptop broke this week so I am kind of all over the place . Anyway enough of that , heres my short but sweet blog post on the Make up Geek eyeshadows . 

   
Without primer 

With Primer


L-R : Bitten , Mango Tango , Goddess , Latte , Peach Smoothie 

Are the make up geek eyeshadows worth the hype ? Quick answer yes ! Theses eyeshadows are in so many Youtubers videos it kind of made me nervous getting them because of the hype and the fact that a lot of there eyeshadows are sent to theses people . 

After receiving them in the mail less then two weeks after purchasing them (which is really good considering they ship from America and I live in Ireland) 

They are pigmented but not overly pigmented . If that makes sense , you can build up the colour which I prefer instead of heaps of colour on the eyelid that takes a year to blend (a little over exaggerating with the time haha)  . I makes it easier to control your eye look when the colour/pigmentation is blend able. Ive had zero fallout with theses eyeshadows too , so if you apply your foundation before your eyeshadow you should have no worries about looking like a panda . 

They blend like a dream ,  they make every other eyeshadow I own seem hard to blend when you compare them to the make up geek eyeshadows . 

Another good thing about theses eyeshadows is the price $5 an eyeshadow and for the quality of the eyeshadows its an absolute bargain . I didn't get charged for customs if anyone is wondering and the shipping wasn't that expensive . 

I store mine in a z palette which you can also buy from there website . 

I love all the colours I got there all warm colours that I have used a lot since getting them . Peach smoothie and Latte are the perfect eyeshadow transition colours . All theses colours work so well together . 

Definitely buying more of there eyeshadows . Great buy .
