Laura Geller 20 Shades of Shadow Vol. 2

#BeautyBagDolls and #GellerGirls I was very busy shopping the ULTA Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales. Being beauty obsessed means I not only stuck to sale items I also picked up a lot of goodies that were not on sale but I was curious to add to my collection. I love eye shadow palettes and I am hard to please when it comes to them because I expect the best when I putting on eye shadow after all it goes on my eyelid. When I laid my eyes on the Laura Geller 20 Shades of Shadow Vol. 2 I knew I had to have it so I ordered it and after it arrived I went right to testing it out. It is beautifully packaged and ready to gift if you choose but I have sensitive eyes and there are only a few brands of eye shadows I can use without issue. Laura Geller is usually one of them.

A Beauty Bag Must!

The palette opens up to display a full beautiful mirror one basic duel ended brush and 20 shades of eye shadows that are baked in Italy. Some shades have shimmer while others don't and I love that. I love having one palette full of 20 shades to choose from 99.9% of my eye shadows I go to each and everyday are in a palette form and that is what I love. This one is no different and it is described by Ulta as "creamy, weightless finish stays crease-free all day. Wear dry for silky, smooth coverage or wet for a deeper color payoff." I must say it does go on creamy and feel weightless at first however by the end of the day it left my eyelids feeling dry and it did crease after about 6 hours. The color payoff is there no matter how you choose to wear them wet or dry. I did not love the shimmer shades because the tend to have more fall out which was disappointing and with fallout came eye irritations. I have since avoided the shimmer shades which left with the matte ones. Those were my favorite since they went on as shown. I love shadows that are true to color and that don't irate my eyes. I love them because wet or dry they looked great. Long lasting I am debating because after six hours I have a need to reapply whether I use a eye shadow primer or not and I also have a crease. That being said I don not completely regret my purchase because I still have a variety of useable shadows and for anyone who does not have sensitive eyes you have 20 beautiful shades to use. This palette has shades named Cocoa, Stone, Java, Sunstone, Calm, Storm, Sand, Forest, Vine, Plum, Claret, Dusk, Rosemist, Royal, Iris, Pewter, Quartz, Carbon, Stellar and Almond. For the $55.00 price tag anyone like me who has sensitive eyes you will have about half of the 20 shades to work with. If you have no eye sensitivity than you have 20 beautiful shades to use but note the shades fade through the day. For those reasons I have to give the Laura Geller 20 Shades of Shadow Vol. 2 a 4 $$$$$ because it is not a perfect palette for me but it is not bad by any means. Shop Ulta to purchase before its gone.
