I was at Target this weekend and saw that the L'Oreal LA PALETTE had arrived! They have Nude 1 and Nude 2. I chose Nude 2 as it has rosy and purple undertones which I love! The Nude 1 was more like the Urban Decay Naked 1 and 2 Palettes. These palettes retail for $15.99 (at Target).
The Palette comes in a sturdy plastic case with a small mirror inside and directions on the back for four different eye looks, which can be very helpful for a beginner.
All of the shadows are pretty pigmented...the lightest shade being the least pigmented. There are six matte eye shadows, and four with a satin finish. Most drugstore brands can nail a shimmery shadow, but the matte ones haven't impressed me until now. This is a giant A+ in my book, and it's something that makes this palette stand out from any other drugstore eye shadow palette. They really created quality matte eye shadows. The matte eye shadows are slightly powdery, but if you tap off the excess powder, they blend like a dream. The satin shadows aren't quite as nice as the matte ones but they still work very well. I would definitely consider checking out these palettes if you are on a budget and want quality, or if you just love eye shadow...they are definitely worth adding to your collection and they can create some really simple eye looks, perfect for the matte lover on the go!
I created this makeup look using only drugstore products and this was the only palette I used on my eyes. I really love the way it turned out. It was really simple, and sort of messy...you don't have to be an expert with looks like these.
