At first, I knew The Balm brand from its famous Nude Tude palette but because I already owned UD Naked 2 Palette, I don’t want to buy almost the same colours from this brand with quite expensive price. So when there was a sale months ago, I decided to buy Shady Lady vol. 1.
There are 3 volumes of Shady Lady: the packaging of the first one is in cheetah print, second one is in zebra print, and the third one is in giraffe print.
The packaging is made of cardboard material in a square size with a big mirror inside. It’s handy to take anywhere but without including any applicator, it’s one of the minus point for this palette. 🙁
This palette contains 9 colours, ranging from bright to dark with good combination of colour. Each colours name are so unique: Caught in The Act Courtney, Shameless Shana, Luscious Lani, Jealous Jordana, Risque Renee, Curvy Cami, Jet-setting Jennifer, All About Alex, and Easy Wheezie. I’m not good at desribing the colours so better see the swatches below, okay? :p
Left: without flash, Right: with flash (without any eyeshadow primer)
not powdery at all
the color is really pigmented, you get what you pay for <3
all of it contains shimmer, the most shimmery one are Caught in The Act Courtney and Curvy Cami
some of them can be used as eyeliner but I haven't tried it :p
the weight is light, suitable for travelling
I bought it around Rp 320.000 (US $32) when there was a sale and not disappointed because the quality is just super good! The vintage design is another plus point for this palette. If I have extra money, I will purchase another products from the Balm, but Too Faced Return of Sexy Eye Palette is in my ultimate wish list right now. I seldom use eyeshadow but still can't stop myself from buying eyeshadow palette. -__-"
Anyway hope you enjoy the swatches and see you on my next post ^^
