As you can see I've been trying out another W7 palette this week, and what a little treat it is. This palette is all about the smokes, and I couldn't have spotted this at a better time. With Autumn/Winter underway and the even more exciting Halloween almost here, I felt a smokey but vibrant palette was just what my eyes needed.
So we have:
1. Dusty
2. Wonderland
3. Summer
4. Atlanta
5. Abracadabra
6. Top Hat
7. Razzamataz
8. Lady Luck
9. Laura E
10. Party Pooper
11. Gate Crash
12. Bologna
On first look at this palette I definitely think this is more suited for the party season, and it even has some party/magic themed names for the shades, which I love. I feel this is a nice change for me as I've been all about the nudes for the last few months, and this vampy little set is set to shake things up for sure.
My favourite shades are 6, 7, & 8; the violet tones. They have great colour payoff and blend beautifully with many of the other shades. I do find 10, Party Pooper a great little shade to pop in the corner of my eyes to brighten them right up without looking too 'pixie-like'. If I had to pick one I'm not so much a fan of, it would be number 1, because you can hardly see it at all on my skin as I'm so pale. But the rest of the shades are absolutely incredible.
Overall though like I've said before of W7 palettes, the pigmentation is fantastic and the price is so affordable. I bought this from a one off small cosmetics store locally for around £5 but I have had a look about online and you can get it from Argos at £7.49 or Direct Cosmetics for £4.99. I'm not sure if they charge for delivery though. If so, you might want to keep your eye out in smaller cosmetics stores around town like I did!
I think there's something for everyone in this palette whether you're dark or light skinned, or whether you're bold or subtle with your makeup. I'm quite enjoying playing about with these shades to create various looks and I have even discovered a combination which would be great for Halloween makeup! :)
What do you think, would you try this palette?
