Highly Pigmented and cheap!

As much as I LOVE luxury brand eye palettes, I just can't afford to keep buying them. This palette was given to me, and I use it at least three times a week!

The colours are quite rich, which was really surprising as I have gone through so many useless eyeshadows from 'cheap' brands such as Revlon and Maybelline. I especially like how easy it is to create a simple natural eye look using the neutral brown tones. This is what I usually use throughout the week when working. I just have to be conscious of wiping away the powder which falls out as I'm applying it.

The shimmer/metallic colours do flake a lot, but so long as you're aware of this when applying them you will get really good mileage out of them. They usually last a full day or evening for me.

This would be a great palette for a girl just starting to experiment with eye shadow.

Tips: Apply these shadows BEFORE foundation, as there is a lot of fall out you will want to wipe off your face.

Good palette!

I got this in the incredible eyes beauty box and I think it was my favourite product of the box. Definitely my most used! The colours are nice (especially the shimmery ones!) and the brush it comes with is actually not awful which is a nice change. The mirror in the box is a bit too small to be any use but it's a great palette and I definitely would purchase again.

Hot mess

Like others before me I got this pallette in the incredible eyes box. I absolutely love eye shadow palettes their in my top five make up favourites. I discovered mellow through beauty review and have seen this company develop its make up range over the last year.

The pallette itself is made of cardboard. It has a small mirror which looks kind of odd because it's rather small. There's fourteen shades in this pallette.The first six nude colours are mix of shimmer and mattes . Their great for a base and highlighting inner corner. The next five shades are great for deepining the transition shade. The last three would be great for smoky eye looks. I found these shadows were quite chalky when swatched. The blush is surprisingly pigmented. The brow powder was far too light for me.

The brush provided did do a great job at blending these eye shadows. I did get a half a days wear out of them. Every shade is buildable. The fall out behind makes it a bit messy. In comparison to the mellow single shadows I was a little bit disapointed with it . The singles were way better than this.

I wouldn't go out and repurchase this one . I see it's highly reviewed but I just have to disagree with everyone. Even though it wasn't a good result I am still keen to try more mellow products out.

Tips: Try wetting your brush might help these eye shadows last longer

Overall Good

I got the Mellow Glam Squad Palette as part of the Incredible Eyes BBBE.

The palette is packaged in cardboard and bubble wrap, with the elegant, shiny black plastic palette inside.

The palette has a mirror, a brow powder, a blush, 14 neutral eyeshadow and a double sided applicator brush (both sides actually being a brush not a sponge). Within the eyeshadows there are 7 shimmery ones and 7 matte ones.

I like the colours, as they can fit every ocassion and I like that I can take this palette on holiday and achieve most of my look in one palette. I also think the eyeshadows are reasonably well pigmented.

What dropped this palette from 'awesome' to 'good' for me was the false advertsing. Mellow advertises themselves as paraben free (they even have a little logo on their box). Then you see parabens listed in their ingredients. I would check the ingredients very carefully on future Mellow purchases.

Great palette!!!

I would highly recommend this palette. The colours have fantastic pigmentation and are incredibly smooth and easy to blend. The colour options are perfect for simple but effective make up. This is my new go-to palette when doing make up. I love it!

Glam palette

I got this in the Incredible Eyes BBBE. It has all the essential colours needed to achieve a smokey eye and i like that it has a mixture of matt and sparkly colours. Applies easily and you dont need a lot. I dont usually spend that much on eyeshadows so im not sure ill replace it once its finished. In saying that it will probably last me a very long time

Nice to mix and match

I love this pallet, and love the Mellow brand generally, after receiving this in a BBBE. Mellow is a fabulous NZ brand that I'd never have heard of had I not purchased the BBBEs, so I'm glad I did. These are really beautifully pigmented eye shadows, and all natural. My eyes are easily irritated by products, but these shadows cause me no irritation whatsoever. I love the case these are in, with the handy mirror, and the brush is perfect for application. I often end up throwing away the included brushes with these sorts of pallets, but not this one - it's decent quality. There's a nice range of shades in here, some glittery, some not, and I've had a lot of fun mixing and matching the different shades. There's nice light ones for day time and work, and then darker ones for an evening smoky eye look. This eye shadow is long lasting (though I always use a primer underneath with any eyeshadow). I haven't used the eyebrow powder or blusher yet, but love that it includes those and they are lovely shades too. All in all, great value for money!

Gorgeous Glam

I'm really enjoying this pallet. There is a good range of subtle colours, and the pallet snaps shut with a magnet - easy! For once the brush which comes with the pallet is NOT terrible! quite usable, although not my favourite, I look at it as a good extra bonus. The real test is in the application, and the application is good. Powder goes on my brush easily & is applied to my lid well. Also, it stays where I want it! lasts all day. I didn't experience much fall out, and the shimmer is just that, it looks quite glittery to start with, but blends down to a nice shimmer. I've managed to create several looks with this pallet and will probably manage to use most of this pallet. I also considered the blush & eyebrow powder to be added bonus, I don't really do blush, and the eye brow powder is a little pale for me, but works well.

definite value for money with the eye-shadows alone.

50/50

I love eyeshadow palettes and have a decent sized collection of them. They are my weakness, so when I received this in the all about eyes BBBE I was over the moon and couldn't wait to start playing with it.

The long palette contains a brow powder and a blush as well as 7 matte finish eyeshadows and 7 shimmery finish eyeshadows, it also has a double ended brush FINALLY a decent brush to use rather than those horrible sponge applicators. It also has a small mirror which is perfect for touch ups during the day. when I first opened this up I was so excited the first 7 colours are mostly all nude, neutral tones. The other 7 are darker Browns, purply tones with a green and a matte black.

I generally always reach for the shimmery finish eyeshadows over the mattes. So I set too with the shimmers first. I find these easy to pick up on the brush but the fallout is crazy. I think I had more under my eyes than anywhere else, I find the shimmery particles quite big it's not super fine like my favourite eyeshadows. I also find the texture to be quite chalky. The mattes on the other hand have a buttery texture with limited fallout and and apply a lot easier.

The mattes easily last all day whereas the shimmers only last a few hours before they start looking patchy and wear off. Overall I'm kind of disappointed, the mattes are great but the shimmers not so great. I also have several of the Mellow baked eyeshadows and LOVE them, totally amazing so maybe I just got a dud batch?

Very curious about the consistency of these shadows . You've answered all my questions surrounding this pallette wonderfully.

Great value for money

I have been trying to downsize my palette collection but when this was in the "Incredible eyes" Best beauty box ever, I caved in!

When it arrived I was amazed at how large the palette was, it is quite long and comes with 14 eye shadows, half are a matte finish and the other half have shimmers. There is also a decent double sided brush that is really good and also a matte pink blush, and what I thought was a bronzer but actually is an eyebrow powder (Opps) It fooled me for the first few wears, it works very well as a contour powder for my medium toned skin.

I like to use the darker shades on the right side of the palette, the left side of the palette are quite light so they dont show up on my skin very well. The lighter matte shades are perfect for a base before I apply any other eye shadow on the top and the shimmery ones I use to highlight my face. 2 of the medium matte toned eye shadows dont work well for me so I miss those 2 shades, I love the last 4 shades on the right side of the palette the most. They are the most pigmented and easier to blend shades for me.

The blush adds a light flush to my cheeks. I was very surprised to notice the item I had been using as a bronzer was in fact an eyebrow powder, I've tried to use it as an eyebrow powder but it is too light for my dark eyebrows.

I've used this quite a lot since I've received it in the BBBE because it is so easy to use and comes with nearly everything you need for your face. This would be a great gift :)
