Product: Stars In Your Eyes Eyeshadow Palette

CRUELTY FREE

Binxcat's Musing:  I was attracted by the concept and color stories of this palette.  The brand has broken the palette into four distinct "looks" - although of course you can use the palette as you please.  Each look contains a trio of coordinating shades that give you a base shade, a shade to enhance, and a shade to smudge/smoke out.  All of the shades in this palette swatched well (no primer).  The lightest shade appears light in my swatching because it is close to my natural skintone (not because it didn't swatch well).  All of the shades had good pigment.  I purchased this palette as an easy option for a grab and go perfect look that can be subtle or bold and also for travel.  I knew the shades had "been done before" but every shade is good and work well as laid out or for alternate looks that all work together; I wouldn't hesitate to buy this again.

Brand Description:

For the ‘Love’ Eyes Look:

1. Sweep the Prime shade over your entire eyelid using your Blender Brush.

2. Dip your Blender Brush into the Enhance shade and blend this into your socket and across your eyelid.

3. Using the Smudger Brush, drag the Smoke shade along the upper and lower lash lines and blend in a ‘V’ shape into the outer corner.

4. Create winged eyeliner using The Feline Flick and finish off with lashings of Legendary Lashes Volume 2 mascara.

Charlotte’s Tip: Pair the ‘Love’ eyes look with Superstar Lips in Happy Lips for kiss-worthy, wider-looking lips. Finish the look by applying Bar of Gold Palette to the tops of the cheekbones for a glowing complexion.

For the ‘Happy’ Eyes Look:

1. Softly blend the Prime shade over the eyelid with the Blender Brush.

2. Using the Enhance shade, nestle the Blender Brush into the socket and blend backwards and forward like a windshield wiper.

3. Line your top lashes with The Classic eyeliner in Audrey, extending upwards and outwards to lift and open the eyes.

4. Work the Smoke shade along the upper and lower lash lines with the Blender Brush, blending into the outer corners. Finish with lashings of Legendary Lashes Volume 2 mascara.

Charlotte’s Tip: Pair the ‘Happy’ eyes look with Superstar Lips in Pillow Talk for sumptuous-looking lips. Finish the look by applying Bar of Gold Palette to the tops of the cheekbones for a glowing complexion.

For the ‘Power’ Eyes Look:

1. Dip your Blender Brush into the Prime shade and blend from the lash line to the brow bone.

2. Using your Smudger Brush, apply the Enhance shade to the inner corner of your eyes to create brighter-looking eyes. Apply to the center of your eyelids for a pop.

3. Sweep the Smoke shade into your socket and outer corner of your eyes with the Blender Brush. Add intensity along the lash lines with the Smudger Brush.

Charlotte’s Tip: Pair the ‘Power’ eyes look with Superstar Lips in Walk of Shame for kiss-worthy lips. Finish the look by applying Bar of Gold Palette to the tops of the cheekbones for a glowing complexion.

For the ‘Confident’ Eyes Look:

1. Wash the Prime shade across your eyelid with the Blender Brush.

2. Dip your Blender Brush into the Enhance shade and blend into your crease for extra definition.

3. Smudge the Smoke shade along the top and bottom lash lines and into the outer corners of your eyes using the Smudger Brush.

4. Create a flawless feline flick using the Rock ‘n’ Kohl eyeliner pencil in Bedroom Black and finish off with lashings of Legendary Lashes Volume 2 mascara.

Charlotte’s Tip: Pair the ‘Confident’ eyes look with Superstar Lips in Confident Lips for a heavenly, wider-looking pout. Finish the look by applying Bar of Gold Palette to the tops of the cheekbones for a glowing complexion.
