ELF 32 Piece Cool Eyeshadow Palette Swatches

Ok! I'm sorry I'm a few days late with this but here are the swatches of all 32 colors.

Here is the overview of the palette...



And here are the swatches going across, row by row.

This is the first row. On some, I have 2 pictures of the row because on some you could see colors better than others and blah blah blah.... So the top row is mainly bronzes.... which i like.... to be fair all the colors have 2 swipes over each other.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      This is the second row and this is where you begin to see the coluh!!! :D The pink shade ( 3rd from left to right) isn't very pigmented... it actually feels very chalky.  Maybe you just can't see it on my brown skin... :D
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


 This is the 3rd row.....obviously! and I was disappointed with the beginning colors because you can't seeee them!! :( With the first few colors, you'll have to use a pigmented colored base in order to get that pretty color pay off that you're looking for. The 4th green, (I talk about in the video) isn't pigmented at all! This one goes along with the pink shade in the 2nd row that feels chalky as you apply it. It feels dusty.... not smooth like the other colors. The 3rd color (the lighter shade of green) is really pretty!! That one feels almost silky. :) That one is a yes BUT again, a light base is probably the best to use with it so the color can really stand out.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the last row in the bunch and it is my favie! :D I like smokey eyes so that purple is GORGEOUS!! I have to be honest... that last color is supposed to be the black shade of the bunch.... it is not pigmented at all which is a shame. :( In this picture, the 3rd color from the left is blue and looks black. I do have to say that one is one of my favorites because it has that silky texture to it and it is super pigmented. I love it!! OH!! and that first color that you see at the far left, i love to use as a highlight on the brow bone. In the palette it looks pink but it actually comes off white. :)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I actually can't stop using this palette. I mean, it does have some misses on it - I'm not going to lie, but it does have a nice variety of colors and it is something that isn't expensive. 
 I am sorry for the delay in putting up the swatches but I hope this helped and thank you so much for dropping by!!

ELF 32 Piece Cool Eyeshadow Palette

Here is my video on a little review of the ELF 32 Piece Cool Eyeshadow Palette. I do love it! Some eyeshadows aren't as pigmented, which is expected from ELF but others are fantastic!!

Overall I do love the palette, especially because it is small enough to carry with you for travel and it has all the basic colors you would need for anyyyyy look! :D I do have to give it two thumbs up!! :D

I will try my best to put swatches of every single eyeshadow in here to determine whether or not this is a good palette for you! I will try to have them up by November 28, 2012.

AHHHHH!!!!!

I do apologize for not posting anything in a really long time. :(
I had all my swatches and pictures of some NYX Girls Lip Glosses that I wanted to put up because I loved them sooo much but I took them on a camera that uses a funny memory card..... I don't know how that happened but I can't upload them to my computer....SO I have to retake the pictures and all that junk BUT since it gets dark earlier now and I don't get home from work pretty much until it's dark outside, I don't get good pictures of them.... BOOOO!!!

Promise I'll start putting good junk up.... :D
