Surprisingly good

I am so happy with the La girl Ultra palette! The pigmentation is really good, much better than most palettes in this price range. The colours are lovely, quite unique and a good mix of matte and shimmer. The shadows are creamy and blend fairly easily. One criticism I have is that without a primer (I use Urban decay primer potion) the shadow creases and fades over time. Also some of the colours look quite different in the palette than they do on the skin. I've created several looks with this palette and have loved the result, the quality is great for the price.

Tips: The second eyeshadow from the left makes a gorgeous highlighter for the cheekbones!

Nudes Nudes Nudes !

I don’t own many palettes and wanted to start building up a bit of a palette collection without breaking the bank.

I’m also not much of an eye shadow wearer but seeing so many beautiful looks on the photo wall I really wanted to start experimenting and getting a bit more creative.

Because this had such a great price tag I couldn’t resist and choose the safest option for me the nudes palette.

I love the beauty brick packaging the cute book which opens up to a beautiful range of shimmery and matte nudes with a double ended brush and mirror on the inside. I didn’t use their brush for applications as I prefer my own shadow brushes but as far as brushes included in palettes go this wasn’t too bad and I would keep this as a spare.

Because I am the most impatient person in the world I couldn’t wait to try it as soon as I received it, I already had my makeup done but as I don’t generally wear eye shadow I put this straight over foundation. I used the matte lighter more natural nudes and the pigmentation was great. It was super smooth and creamy and glided on my eyelids beautifully.

I choose the matte nudes to experiment with first and absolutely loved it. It didn’t sit in my creases or anything like that. The only downside it really had was it didn’t last all day on me but to be honest at that price I’m not terribly concerned !

I have been playing with these ever since !. The shimmers the mattes they are all very highly pigmented and glide on super smoothly. I do use these with a eyeshadow primer to give the shadow some longer stay time and this generally takes me through my work day which is exactly what I’m after. I adore the nude palette really nice shades for my skin tone.

I will be buying more of these – with such an affordable price tag it’s a great way to experiment with colours and looks without breaking the bank but still receiving a good quality product.

I would definitely recommend this to people to try.

NEONS

I put my hand up to trial the LA Girl Neon Palette and was so excited to be accepted. I opened it up as soon as it arrived, it comes in packaging that feels like strong shiny cardboard, it doesn't feel overly sturdy but I don't tend to throw my palettes around so that's no biggy. The eyes shadows themselves come in a cool green coloured plastic. There's also a small long mirror on the top half, I don't know how you're meant to use the mirror as it is quite thin. I would most likely only use it if I was desperate and had no other mirrors on me, but it does look nice so there's that.

It also comes with a double ended brush, one end is a thin eye shadow brush the other is your typical eye makeup applicator. At first I didn't think I would bother with the brush at all but gave it a go anyway and was pretty surprised at how much I like the soft brush end. I find it especially good for applying colours to the under eye area and for cut crease looks.

Now getting onto the 12 shimmery eye shadows themselves, the colours look awesome! I was a bit disappointed that the 3 reds and pinks didn't actually come out all that bright, they were still nice colours though. On the other hand the blues, purples and greens are super pigmented and what you see is what you get. I love that there is a white, silver and black colour there also, which compliments the other colours quite well. There's hardly any fall our either which is always a bonus. By the end of the day (after 12 hours normally) there's a wee bit of smudging and colour fade but nothing that would make me stop using these eye shadows.

I'm looking forward to trying out the other palettes, will definitely be investing in the Nudes next!

Tips: Try applying with a slightly damp brush for more intense colour

Great shades but lacks pigment

I have the nudes palette in this range. I brought this about 3 months ago because the shades looked to die for! The packaging is super cute, easy to select and use shades and is a great size (slips in the side of my makeup cabinet). I found the shades were beautiful but lacked pigment. I still manage to achieve the looks I want by layering the product. I found applying it wet worked quite well to intensify the colours. Over all I think it is a great palette for the price.

Tips: Apply wet to intensify pigment.

Nude

I purchased as palette as I was in need of some new items to encourage me to have a clear out. I liked that they are slim, with a mirror and have a brush and sponge in the kit. The shades are pretty with some light mate colours and some metallic looking ones aswell.

I didn't like that they tend to be flaky especially when using the brush it came with. So when using it I just do my eye make up first then foundation. I don't normally wear a lot of make up so have noticed that it tends to last long enough when I'm going out. All in all good price for what you get

Great For The Price

I brought this palette as a cheap one to take away on holiday with me, that had a range of pink/purple/blue-ish shades as well as a few dark and light to shadow and highlight. I felt like it gave me the whole spectrum of colours for an everday look.

I find the palette easy to use and the colours are placed quite intuitvely from light to dark.

The colours are reasonably pigmented but can be built up a bit.

I find the eyeshadow lasts all day, but if I was going out for the night I would want to reapply it because it does look well worn.

So a cheap and cheerful palette, that will do the trick, but you could find something with higher quality.

Great price

Great purchase for someone that doesn't wear make up to often or doesn't want to spend crazy amounts on eyeshadow. This was my first eyeshadow pallet (nude) great starter with good nude colour range mattes and shimmers and blends easy enough. Didn't give 5 stars as pigmentation could be better and does require a good base to ensure colours come through nicely and last all all night without smudging.

Ultra Palette

I currently own the Ultra Palette, but may be looking to buy more ;) First off the packaging of this palette is nice, sleek and simple. I am a fan of the colour scheme used, as the black and vibrant purple really stands out and makes it easy to find amongst other palettes. On the back of the box there is a suggestion on how and where to apply the eyeshadows, which I thought would be great help for makeup newbies. The interior of the box is nicely laid out, it features a good clear mirror, and there is also magnet which hold the lid in place when closed. The colours are also arranged beautifully, there is a nice transition between colour groups. Now on to the application. Well firstly there is a difference between the ways the colours look in the pan and on, and the colours are relatively sheer but are definitely buildable. However I strongly recommend the use of an eyeshadow base, I personally found the Maybelline Colour Tattoo eyeshadows in shade 05 or 70 worked particularly well and made the LA Girl shades vibrant and long lasting. Without the base eyeshadows the LA Girl colours wore off rather quickly. The colours within the Ultra palette are quite universal as all eye colours suit purples, and there is a range of cool and warm tones. All of the colours are shimmery, but can be mixed with neutral mattes to tone them done. This has swiftly become one of my everyday palettes as they add a nice pop of colour to my usual makeup routine. Overall I recommend this palette and believe it’s definitely bang for your buck.

Tips: Definitely use an eyeshadow base or a long lasting cream eyeshadow under this palette.

Neons & naturals

I purchased the neons and naturals palettes after giving in over the cheap price and I didn't have a great collection of colourful eyeshadows and I wanted to experiment ! I love the naturals they have just enough pigmentation for my liking for everyday wear and the colours show up nicely, I love lots of the shimmer colours in the palette. I didn't find much use with the neons palette in all honesty, the colours weren't very pigmented for my liking of bright colours they were very subtle. Some colours were more pigmented then others, I found some of the colours chalky and didn't blend out that great or stick to my eyelids even with a primer. I did give away my neons one but kept my naturals palette as I find it's great for travelling since it has a great range of colours.

Good for the money

I am a sucker for nudes and this palette caught my eye when on sale so I grabbed myself one. The packaging colours are quite modern looking with a black cover and almost a nude colour writing. once you open your new palette you will find 12 gorgeous colours to excite your imagination with. The applicator is one I have not seen before with a sponge tip on one end and a brush on the other. I havent used the sponge but have used the brush which actually isnt that bad. I found the shadow reasonably easy to apply but did have to use a bit to get good depth of colour. One morning I tried using it wet and it seemed better. I was happy with the way it stayed on for the day and came off easily with my usual eye makeup remover. This palette I feel is a good one for a beginner or if eye shadow is not a priority.
