Okay, seriously, how beautiful do these look?! These are eyeshadows by the youtube guru MakeupGeek.
This is her starter kit with 8 eye shadows for $45:
And her Color Expansion Kit:
I have seen a few youtube gurus use them and everyone who I know from other sites that have bought them have nothing but amazing things to say about the color range and quality. Also, the black shade is possibly the DARKEST black I have ever seen from other swatches.
Wow they are gorgeous. Love 'unexpected' and 'purple rain', so pretty! And I am not even an eyeshadow fan. She was one of the first youtube gurus, who I started following, and she was so different at that time (still nice though)! I am really happy for her :)
^Really? From where? I ask only because I have heard nothing but good things and I am really wanting to place an order for both kits. The swatches look AMAZING.
This woman has come a long way. M, do let me know if you try her brushes or if you come across any reviews about her brushes. I would love to get some amazing brushes at an even more amazing price :D
I have a ton of her eyeshadows and I have to say I am VERY impressed. The staying power with primer in my opinion is better than MAC. I have oily lids so even sometimes with primer eyeshadow will crease or fade on be but this stuff doesn't fade, it doesn't crease and they blend like nothing else. She really did good with her eyeshadows. I have a whole large z palette full of her eyeshadows and I'm in love. I've actually stopped using anything else.
are her eyeshadows any different from coastal scents does it have a ben nye staying power? I just was in ricky's in ny and I realized a lot of the pigments I saw there from another company (have to look for the pigment it starts with an M i believe) was very similar if not almost exactly like a girl in town who is marketing her own line of makeup. I wonder if these ppl all use the same company and just give their stuff a different name.
^ Was the company name Mehron? I have recently fallen in love with the quality of their products. I purchased one of their blush palette's recently and the colors are va-va-voom!

And Ben Nye is just wow.
Oh my God I live for Mehron, I use their tatoo covering kit its gives flawless results....I want to get the Ben nye cake foundation, have you tried it?
I have the Ben Nye Matte Foundation Palette and Mehron's Tattoo CoveRing Wheel...both are excellent products.
The foundation is cakey but depends largely on how you apply it. That's the key with it. Someone also taught me to run a lighter under it to get it to melt a bit. I used it on people with severe acne and it worked wonders.
I heard on another forum that the staying power isn't good, but have not tried them personally so can't vouch for that 100%, the colors look amazing though

That is awesome! Can you post a picture of your Z Palette? I plan on filling up a Z palette as well. Did you buy both these kits or bought some individual ones?
Here’s my z-palette (which I also bought from Makeup Geek):
There are a few MAC one’s scattered around in there because I don’t really reach for any of my MAC ones anymore so I just put the few I do in this palette.
These are the colours I have:
Shimma Shimma
Vanilla Bean
Purely Naked
Latte
Cupcake
Cocoa Bear
Mocha
Bada Bing
Goddess
Mango Tango
Chickadee
Corrupt
Moondust
Unexpected
I didn’t buy any of the kits because by the time I went to buy it it was sold out so I picked up a few colours to start with and it became a growing obsession. The newest colours I got this week are Chickadee, Mango Tango (LOVE this one) and Goddess (they’re the 3 down the extreme right side). I hope she keeps doing more colours because the pigmentation and blendability on these are just… wow.
^WOW, that looks beautiful! I think I need to place an order for at least one kit and see how I like it. Btw, what's the brown sparkle color on the top row? It's so...dimensional!
