![]() ![]() Some of them seem to be wearing Harry Potter’s Invisibility Cloak.Īs you can tell by the three swatches I did of the neutrals in the third column of the palette (rows are too mainstream), they are not super pigmented. Perhaps a review of that is in order as well…But anyway, I digress. I was using pressed powders like the Maybelline Clear Smooth All in One Powder in Toffee as a transition shade thus far, because it was way too orange put elsewhere. The neutrals especially appealed to me as some could act as a transition shade. The Beauty Treats 24 Matte Eyeshadow Palette is divided into 12 neutral colours and 12 non-neutrals (for lack of a better antonym). One cannot buy something cheap like this and automatically expect something along the lines of Urban Decay in terms of quality. I hope to be categorised under the second as well. They seemed to fall into two camps: the first lambasted the product while the second acknowledged it’s limitations whilst suggesting solutions. I read one or two reviews of this product before posting my own. Sometimes I forget that make-up actually expires. The back of the palette includes the ingredients, place of origin as well as an expiry date. ![]() That’s just under R4 per eyeshadow! Yes, I used a calculator. ![]() All of that changed when I spotted the Beauty Treats Palette at Dis-chem (a local pharmacy aka ‘drugstore’), retailing for R95. Having watched many rom-coms, done three semesters of politics and stumbled across motivational Mondays on various social media, it is old news to me that we always want we don’t have. While I like to ‘shine bright like a diamond’ as much as the next person, shimmery eyeshadow is not exactly subtle when you want it to be. The glittery and shimmery palettes that I do have were received as gifts. My eyeshadow purchases – much like the relationship status of some – have been single. ![]()
