Hello, beautiful people!
Today I will be reviewing the “Color Inspiration” MakeUp Box by The Color Workshop. It’s available at either Target or Wal-Mart for $15.
The make-up box came with eight different eye shadow palettes with six eye shadows in each, as well as a blush. In total, there are 48 eye shadows and eight blushes. The box also came with four lipsticks and two eye liners; one in black and one in brown, as well as four nail polishes and a set of synthetic brushes and sponge applicators.
The make-up box can be found here -- http://www.walmart.com/ip/COLOR-INSPIRATION/15126803, or bought at your local Wal-Mart or Target.
The box has both The Color Workshop and Markwins make-up in it.
I found the eye shadows to be really impressive, especially when applied over moisturizer, eye primer, or a crème color base. Having a wet base for the dry eye shadow to adhere to helps make the shadow and pigment in the shadow more vibrant and helps it stay much longer without wearing off or creasing through out the day.
The eye shadows come in a variety of colors, ranging from a really pale pink to a dark purple to a dark black. They come in both shimmer and matte finishes that help complete any look you’re trying to achieve.
The lipsticks are also really good! They come in a sheer pink color, a more matte, vibrant pink color, a beautiful rosey red color, and a bronze plum color. They stay on for a while, glide on effortlessly, and have a gorgeous natural finish.
The eyeliners aren’t bad, but they’re nothing to write home about. They’re made in a plastic pencil but the top feels like wood… and I’m not exactly sure how you would sharpen them when you needed to.
The brushes are about the same as the eyeliners – they’re nothing special, but they’re nice when you don’t have anything else to use. The only brush I really liked out of the brush set was the synthetic angled brush, which was really soft and helped apply my make-up beautifully.
The nail polish, on the other hand, is a piece of crap. The colors are gorgeous, but when you try to put the nail polish on, it takes up to three coats for the color not to be completely transparent. It takes a while to dry and when it does dry, it chips outrageously easy. I was really disappointed with the nail polishes in the make-up box in general.
However, the bad nail polishes aside, this make-up box is an amazing find, even if you do only use it for the eye shadows! $15 is reasonable enough alone just for the 48 eye shadows and eight blushes, not to mention the smooth and really pigmented lipsticks that come with it.
I highly suggest this make-up box to anyone looking for some really good eye shadows and other make-up products at unbelievably cheap prices!
Ciao, bella!
