Best Eyeshadows Ever? | Makeup Geek


Colours: Drama Queen (top) and Sensuous

So I made my first order with Makeup Geek after hearing so much about them. Apparently, it's a beauty blogger/makeup artist in America, who takes all the fantastic qualities of high end eyeshadows, like MAC and NARS, having worked with their products for so long, and produces her own quality, affordable eyeshadows.

These can be purchased at Makeupgeek's website, and shipping isn't too bad! I only order two standard eyeshadows at once, as this keeps the total cost under the £15 or so that is the maximum to avoid import taxes, which can be a lot in this country!
So for around £13 I am delivered two amazing eyeshadows.
My first batch contains two purple shades: drama queen and sensuous.

The swatches on the website looked good, but I had to see for myself. I was blown away.

You can see from the picture above that one swipe does it all, especially with the darker shades. I haven't tested longeivity, but I'm sure with a good primer these babies will stay put.
I use an eBay Z palette dupe to store these, and I find that these actually stick better than my MAC pans.

Overall, I am very impressed and wouldn't hesistate in buying them all. At around $5 these are a steal, and are very close to becoming my all-time favourite eyeshadows.


Have you tried any? Shade recommendations more than welcome!! L x
