I’ve got some budget-friendly beauties for the blog today. I picked up a Flashadow ($12) in Cosmic Confetti and the awesome Twinkle Texture ($14) eyeshadow palette from the Popbeauty website.
I was I was hoping the Flashadow would be more opaque, but it’s more of an eyeshadow topper. So I was a little disappointed there. But it dries quickly, so it would still be a great eyeshadow topper. However, the eyeshadow palette is awesome! I hope Pop comes out with an entire eyeshadow palette of the glitter shades. The formula is pretty unique, it’s creamy but still a densely-packed glitter. It doesn’t feel cheap like the Wet N Wild glitter palettes I found at Walgreens near Halloween. It’s also easy to apply. I would still suggest using a glitter glue primer, as the glitter can flake off over time. The shimmer eyeshadow shades are very pigmented. I think they complement the glitter shades perfectly.
You can create a really nice holiday eyeshadow look with this palette alone. Or use the Flashadow over top an eyeshadow that you already have. This palette gets the velociraptor seal of approval! Jury is still out on the Flashadow, as I need to play around with it more.
