Hello Beauties,
This eyeshadow palette that I'm showing you all today was gift from a friend. Though it says Meylon by Paris on the box, I'm not sure where it is made. I kind of have a love-hate relationship with palette because some of the colors show up & some don't.
The shimmery eyeshadows are my favourite! I'm not so fond of matte colors & I don't usually use them because they don't show up on me. The shimmery colors are the most used ones when I go for parties or weddings.
I once carried this palette along with me & a blue eyeshadow broke & ruined the entire palette. The applicators are just fine! I got a new eyeshadow palettte( will write a post on that later) recently & since then this hasn't been in much use.
There is a little fallout when used however this is far better than the Lakme Eye Quartet that I have interms of fallout. The size of the pan is almost like a 50 Paisa Coin & will last long.
The shimmery eyeshadows have a nice staying power for about 4 hours without a base & with a base will last for 5-6 hours & after that the color gradually lightens. The matte ones don't last more than 4 hours with a base.
Price: Not sure! But seen this around Rs.800 INR on Snapdeal.
This is how the swatches look
Phew!!! Dude this is such tiring thing- taking pictures of the swatches at different angles! Hats off to those guys who do it so beautifully!
Final Verdict:
(1) This palette has nice beautiful colors that you could use to create any kind of look be it the Smokey, Indian, Arabic , Bridal or any day time look. It is a 28 color Palette that has both shimmery & matte colors.
(2) Easily available on Flipkart, Snap deal at discount or you could even check your local cosmetic shops for better discounts.
(3) The ingredients list shows it has Parabens, some people may have an issue with that.
(4) Decent staying power!
(5) A good palette for beginners! This helped me a lot when I started doing eye makeup.
Do let me know if you know any such affordable palettes(Except brands like Lakme, Maybelline, Revlon etc.) that are easily available & have so many colors.
