E.L.F. 32 Eyeshadow palette review



Eyeslipsface.com or E.L.F. recently has a few limited edition palettes out.
E.L.F. 32 Eyeshadow Palette

The Palette includes 32 eyeshadows and one dual ended sponge tip applicator. On the inside lid of the palette there is a small mirror all the way across the top.

I do like E.L.F. products but overall wasn't too WOWed by this.

There are a lot of gunmetal/grey/black shades and some browns even have purple or copper undertones which is nice.

Here are some swatches just on my fingertips:
(please excuse the bad quality but u get the idea)

Green (Third row, 5th color)
Blue (Third row, 7th color)
Purple (Third row, 3rd color)

Black (Fourth row, 7th color)
Brown (First row, 7th color)
Burgundy (Second row, 6th color)

The colors I chose are the more pigmented ones and did take a lot of product to get on the tip of my finger.
They really aren't that pigmented but they are fairly blendable.

When applying them to your eye, the do create a lot of fall out but the payoff is wonderful if you have enough time to pack on color.

This palette does seem sturdy and durable.
It is organized well, in the sense colors for all over lid and crease duos are near each other.
For the $5 price tag, I would recommend this because you have many different shades for special events and to dress up or down your look.

Overall Pros:
-Inexpensive (It is around 15 cents per eyeshadow)
-Thin but durable and sleek packaging.
-Multiple color choices

Cons:
-Not super pigmented
-Fallout
-Needs primer

Whether you are big into makeup or not, this is a good palette to have because it includes many colors that are easy to pair and very flattering for all occasions.
