Kara Beauty ES22 15 COLOR SMOKY BLUE EYESHADOW

I had already gotten the Kara Beauty palette in the Grays (see my glowing review!) & decided to get the blues too. I am just as pleased with the blues - see my fotos for a few looks I created. I'll reiterate briefly what I said about the gray palette - if you are a novice artist & just slap these on without primer, don't expect much. I even think the Urban Decay eye primers aren't strong enough for these shadows. I worked in retail cosmetics for almost 20 years...if you have a bit of skill & use a good, HEAVY DUTY primer such as MAC PaintPots, Becca concealer, etc., and blend well with decent brushes, the true matte bright colors will really come to life & last all day. My fotos were taken on the beach in 95 degree heat - if you apply them right with a good primer, you'll get great results! For the price, they are definitely worth it. Also very generous sizes, these palettes will probably outlive me!

Love this company and their palletes. I highly recommend you get the four pack instead of buying separately like I did because it will cost you more if you buy separately. I wised up when I bought a set for both of my friends! But that’s how much I loved them. The pans are huge! The pigmentation is great. It’s just a great product for the price!

This palette is really good value for money. The dark colors are really nicely pigmented, the lights a bit less, which is typical with matte colors. Blends nicely, I would actually say this is on par with most Morphe palettes as far as quality goes.

I bought this as a dupe for Blue Blood and its perfect!!! Came just fine, well packaged, color pay off is good not GREAT, but if you know what you are doing (primer and wet brush tech) you'll get as vibrant a payoff as you want. A little fall out, but again if you know what you are doing its great. And you save like $40 LOL The pan size is fantastic!! HUGE

Got this to do my Halloween makeup as Sally from The Nightmare before Christmas and it was PERFECT. All the shades I needed. Applied well. Lasted long. Great for the price!

I was looking for blue shadows and thought these would work. Unfortunately, even the lightest blue is too bright (heavy)for me. I usually apply the shadow and then use a Qtip to smooth out and lighten the color.

This is an amazing eyeshadow palette and what I hold every palette I buy to. It's a nice large size, the shadows are a good distance away so they don't mix, and the colors are so bold and bright and I adore them. Perfect for regular makeup or cosplayers!

Mirror came cracked and the Starry blue shafe is broken also..... but the colors are pretty and bigger then expected. A new one was sent and I was never told to return the broken one. But just got an email saying they will charge 20 bucks if I dont return the broken items. Not buying again
