Shimmers & Glitters

I really had fun swatching these even though my hands both ended up a glittery mess. These loose eyeshadows/glitters were sent to me by BornPrettyStore.com. The whole set consists of 12 loose eyeshadows and is only $7.59. I think they're great if you're new to makeup and just want to practice wearing colors.

  

The jar is pretty small (3cm in diameter) but you get a lot of product. The colors aren't as rich as MAC pigments, of course, but they're actually not bad. If you've tried NYX Chrome Eyeshadows before, these are pretty similar to those in pigmentation and texture.

I really, REALLY like the last teal color. It's so pretty!

These eyeshadows are very shimmery and they'll create that shiny metallic effect when applied with a damp brush. Staying power is pretty lousy though, so a good eyeshadow primer is a must.

Do you like loose eyeshadows or prefer pressed ones?
