Tonight I'm going to share a quick peek at what was an impulse purchase one evening at Ulta. I spotted the Essence display with the Metals eyeshadows.
These baked shadows weigh in at 4g/ 0.14oz each and retail for $3.99. There were six shades at my Ulta, but there are nine shades listed on the brand's website. I purchased two of them to test the formula- and for one specific reason which I'll get into.
First up, Ballerina.
This is a lovely champagne shimmer. Ballerina Glam looks like it would be fantastic as either a subtle, glam lid shade or as a highlighter.
I wasn't sold on the baked formula. but was willing to give it a chance.
This is the swatch:
It's gorgeous and has better pigmentation than a lot of the other baked highlighters in my stash.
The other shade I picked up was Deep Sea.
I'm not sure why this called to me, but it did. It's a deep blue.
This is totally not my type of color, but the formula's very smooth.
This is pretty and smoky- now, I just need a reason to wear this at night!
I think these are fantastic for the price and highly recommend them.Ballerina Glam is my choice of the two (obviously). I'll be delving further into Essence in 2018, so stay tuned!
