LA Girl Palette Review

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!

When I first saw these palettes online the person selling them seemed to have trouble getting people to buy them. That paired with the fact that Tati used the Smokey palette and didn't love it, I was totally put off of these. I thought they would never work.

Then she popped one into my order because she knows how much I love eyeshadow palettes. I'd also seen these go out as trials here on BR so I already knew I wanted to try the Ultra palette, if I had to try one.

Overall I'm pretty happy with the palette. I collect eyeshadows so I have a wide range of qualities when it comes to eyeshadows and these are pretty great. Not high end quality, and for the price, who can expect that? But really quite good. The Ultra palette is full of pretty purple toned shades with a few neutrals thrown in. For me personally I do need to grab a matte, mid toned brown to throw in the crease as a transition shade because of the lack of mattes in this particular palette, but overall I do love it. The purples are stunning and it's definitely a cool toned palette and even using it for a pop of purple when using an entirely neutral palette is really fun.

I feel like with this little range there is a palette for everyone, whether you love bright looks, bold looks, neutral looks... I'm psyched to buy more of these honestly. I think for the price, you're getting pretty wonderful quality. I am intent on owning all four.

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.

I purchased this palette over a month ago due to wanting a pop of color eyeshadow palette to create some fun eye looks.

I have always liked the way LA Girl packages these palettes as they look quite wicked. They aren't super sturdy as its made out of this shinny cardboard.

Now, the product isn't actually as pigmented as most people on the internet say it is. It maybe just the palette but I found the shades very chalky and the shades were very subtle even on a white base. I found these shadows hard to blend and hard to apply evenly on my eyelids.

I definitely wouldn't recommend this palette for a pop of colour.

LA girl is fast becoming popular cosmetic brand. I never thought much of this brand, but I've noticed it more on social media. When I saw these palettes up for trial I really wanted to be on that trial. I don't own many palettes at all, so I wanted to grow my collection by purchasing this one. Also if it's on Beauty Review it must be good right?

This palette comes in this cardboard holder, its quite thick too. It has a clear window so you can visibly see the eye shadows. I opened it up on the lid is this rectangular mirror on it. This comes with a double ended applicator with a brush at one end and a sponge at the other end. There's twelve colours in this palette. These colours are along the Purple colour palette.

On application, these require building the colour up. I notice the lighter colours in this palette are quite opaque compared to the darker colours. I enjoy using the dark colours to create smoky eyes. I managed to get my palette on sale at The Warehouse for $7 dollars. I think for its price range it's definitely worth it's amount. The shadows aren't very pigmented but they still get the job done. UPDATE: I wouldn't buy these again. Too much fall out. Light colours were chalky.

This palette has surprised me so much! It is currently my go to palette as its perfect for everyday use. There is a good mixture of mattes and shimmers.

I purchased the nude palette from The Warehouse for incredibly cheap. I love palettes so thought I would give it a go. The colours are beautiful and the packaging is lovely too but my first impression of the product is you get what you pay for. The eyeshadows are quite chalky and hard to work with. The colour pay off isnt great either and you do need to spend some time getting a decent colour pay off. They stay on reasonably well during the day but this could be the result of a good primer! Im also certain that there are two colours in mine which are identical...

I brought this because I reply wanted a nude eyeshadow palate and didn't want to spend heaps so I got this, and I must say I haven't bothered buying another because this ones perfect! I looove the colours and they do last all day/night! They blend to easily and nicely and the brush that comes with it is perfect!

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.
