Hello & Happy Wednesday!
Today I'm sharing my thoughts on some very exciting eyeshadows that are totally great. I've seen a few videos on youtube raving about them but when I swatched them myself, I was blown away. They look so good in videos and photos but in person, they're much more intense.
The ten new foiled eyeshadows are available individually for $9.99 (in pan form) or as a bundle set of all ten for $89. You save a little bit of money by buying the bundle set instead of getting each individually. Either way you choose to go, you won't be disappointed. The price point is a bit higher than the traditional Makeup Geek eyeshadows but the formula is completely different which is why there's a higher price.
Let's dive into these beauties::

Swatches & Color Descriptions::

| Mesmerized |

| Mesmerized |
Mesmerized~ a gorgeous taupe with a slight purple undertone. This one would be a perfect everyday color.
 |
| Caitlin Rose |
 |
| Caitlin Rose |
Caitlin Rose~ an iridescent purple. This shade is special because the proceeds of this eyeshadow goes to Batten Disease. If you want to know more about this generosity then head on over to the Makeup Geek youtube channel or website.

| Jester |
 |
| Jester |
Jester~ a spring green shade that would be perfect as a pop of color to many looks.
 |
| Houdini |
 |
| Houdini |
Houdini~ a deep emerald green color. This would make for a gorgeous smokey eye or even as eyeliner.
 |
| Flame Thrower |
 |
| Flame Thrower |
Flame Thrower~ a stunning bold copper. I love this one so much because it intensifies my brown eyes. This color is super gorgeous smudged in the lower lash line!
 |
| Center Stage |
 |
| Center Stage |
Center Stage~ a deep blue with a slight purple tone. It's so beautiful but it's also not as super metallic as the others.
As you can see, these eyeshadows are incredible. Makeup Geek did a great job formulating them and I certainly hope more colors are released soon. The claims for these is that you don't need a primer to prevent creasing nor do you need a mixing medium to intensify "foil" the finishes. All the work has been done for you! I have oily lids and wore a few of the lighter colors without primer (which I never go without) for about 3 hours and noticed creasing. I always get creasing when I don't use a primer because of my oily lids, so I wasn't surprised when these creased. If you have oily lids, I recommend using a primer to keep them looking just as intense all day long.
Other than that, I totally love them and will continue using them day to day and in tutorials. I would definitely recommend all of them to those who love intense metallic finishes.
