My Makeup Geek Eyeshadow Collection and Review!

Hey guys!

So today I'm going to be talking about makeup geek eyeshadows! If you don't know what makeup geek is, it's a makeup range created by a beauty guru on YouTube called Marlena. Here is her YouTube channel:

They have eyeshadows, pigments, lipsticks and they also carry other brands too. They have really affordable international shipping so it's great as I live in the UK. They are $5.99/£3.54 per eyeshadow which is really affordable considering they are the same quality as a MAC eyeshadow! I have 4 of their pigments which I've recentley received which I'm going to be reviewing soon!

I have all of my eyeshadows in a z palette which can be purchased on either the makeup geek website or on Amazon. The palette fits 27 eyeshadows. Before I go through each one, I'm just going to say that these eyeshadows are amazing! They're really pigmented and blendable. They also have a range of colours to choose from.



1: White lies is a pure white matte. It's a great highlight colour if you are fair like me!
2: Ice queen is a frosty shimmery white, which again is a great highlight colour.
3: Vanilla bean is a light cream colour that has a peachy beige undertone to it, and has a slight shimmer to it but has is almost matte. Its a great highlight and blending shade.
4: Crème brulee is a medium sand colour with a soft matte finish. It's a really nice transition shade.
5: Cocoa bear is a matte reddish brown, which is one of my favourite colours! It's such a lovely crease colour and will suit many different skin tones.
6: Country girl is a shimmery pink brown. It's a really pretty crease colour.
7: Brown sugar is a warm shimmery copper brown colour which again great for the crease!


8: Bling is a slighty frosted warm ivory which is great lid colour and highlight shade.
9: Shimma shimma is a metallic champagne with a pink undertone to it. This is another one of my favourites as it looks really pretty as a lid colour! I have a backup for when this one runs out as it's nearly all gone!
10: Latte is a matte medium brown shade which is a great crease colour or transition shade.
11: Pretentious is a metallic bronze colour which is very similar urban decays smog from the first naked palette! Again really pretty in the crease and great for a smokey eye!
12: Glamorous is a shimmery bronze gold shade that looks great on the lids.
13: Goddess is a metallic pale copper which is really vibrant and again looks amazing as a lid colour!
14: Mocha is a deep matte brown that is great for deepening the outer v!

                   

15: A back up of shimma shimma.
16: Purley naked is a light shimmery tan colour that is a great transition or blending shade.
17: Frappe is a medium maple matte brown which is a good crease and transition colour.
18: Moondust is a metallic silver taupe which is great colour for the lids to create a smokey eye.
19: Grapite is a light grey with flecks of silver with a blue undertone. I would use it for either the lids or the crease.
20: Slealth is a matte true grey which a good colour to use for the crease.
21: Bada-bing is a deep brown with flecks of gold, which I love using for the outer v.


22: Cinderella is a pale shimmery pink which looks great on the lids.
23: Homecoming is a medium brown with gold shimmer, which is another nice colour for the lids.
24: Hipster is a dark sand and light taupe tan with slight shimmer which is a great crease colour.
25: Mercury is a metallic medium silver which is a nice colour for the lids.
26: Galaxy is a metallic gunmetal colour which is great for the outer v.
27: Corrupt is an intense matte black with a very subtle sparkle. This black is the most pigmented black you will ever see! You don't need much at all and it's perfect for a smokey eye!


Overall these eyeshadows are amazing and definatley worth purchasing, and I really want to try some of the brighter colours! Stay tuned for my review of the makeup geek pigments!
