Lorac Mint Edition Palette
Friday, January 10, 2014
Hey guys! Here's another thing I purchased using one of the Sephora gift cards I got for Christmas. This was also part of the 20% off all sale items clearance event. I also just found out that Sephora won't be selling Lorac anymore. But, Kohls will, so go check out your local store!
Okay, the Lorac Mint Edition palette. This one from Sephora looks different and bigger than the one on the Lorac website. The one on Lorac's website also comes with a cute clutch and is now only $18. I love minty things and I knew that I wanted this but I always convinced myself that I didn't actually need it.
Tell me this isn't the cutest palette ever! It looks just like a little clutch! It opens up just like a normal palette. Let's take a look at the inside.
Ohhhhhhhh......aaaahhhhhhhh! Look how pretty! You get 8 eye shadows, a blush, and a highlighter plus a full sized liquid lipstick in the box. You have a variety of matte and shimmer shadows which is always nice for a full face palette.
The matte shadows are actually pretty nice. The two on the left are very nice highlighting colors. I was afraid I wasn't going to like the mint green as a shadow, but it's really quite light. The two shadows in the right are also very nice and neutral. Mixed with the shimmer shadows, you can create the perfect eye look.
Here are the amazing shimmer shadows. The bottom two colors that have actual specks of glitter in them are so nice. The glitter isn't too obnoxious so you can still create pretty subtle looks with just a hint of glimmer.
Blush and highlighter. PRETTY!!!!! They both have a good amount of shimmer in them so apply it carefully. You still get a good color payoff even though it's light and delicate.
Lastly, here is the liquid lipstick. I have not tried this on my lips yet, but from just playing around with this swatch, boy does it look pretty. I'm sure the color that shows up on the lips is gorgeous. I'd imagine that it doesn't stay on too long though. If you eat/drink right after you apply this, you may have to touch it up afterwards.
So, what do you think? I am so happy I decided to get this. Do you have this palette? What do you like about it?
