Hi Marlena !

I’ve just bought the “E.L.F 100 piece eyeshadow set” (it’s not the same palette as in the video) and it’s exciting to have all of these colors for so cheap. But some of the eyeshadows are not well pigmented and it’s a little bit hard to blend them. I used the “Lemon aid” eye primer by Benefit but it makes the eyeshadows look cakey. Which primer should you recommend for E.L.F eyeshadows?
Thank you so much

Kind regards from Paris (and by the way, sorry for my bad english ) )

I looked at the 144 Brights palette too. I have not went shopping yet, but I am gong soon. At first I decided against the 144 Brights palette because that’s 144 shades, a lot of shades. Is the palette a mix of matte and shimmery shadows? A mixture of all cool, warm, & bright? I’m not sure, I didn’t really look much into it, however, now that you recommend it, and I did look at it before, I will check it out again!

I also wanted to leave in here, I know this has nothing to do with eye shadows, but, it is makeup based, any comments from anyone about Makeup Geeks brushes? When I shop, I’m looking into some new brushes for myself and I thought about doing a mixture of Eco Tools and Makeup Geek. Currently, the only brushes I have are basic ones that came with a Bare Escentuals Get Started Kit I bought a couple years ago. Any comments will be greatly appreciated!

I just bought the 144 Brights palette and I love it! Every color has been amazing so far, even the mattes. I got it on sale and used my employee discount at Target so I got it for about 8 dollars. Super steal! Plus it’s just so pretty to look at, with all the pretty colors.

Hi Marlena!

I think you are absolutely beautiful and I am very new to a lot of things makeup, including Makeup Geek. I just wanted to say that I love watching your You Tube videos which is where I came across you! I just watched your review on the “E.l.f. Neutral Eyeshadow Palette”, I am looking into purchasing the “E.l.f. Everyday Eyeshadow Palette” actually, it comes with 100 shades for $10 where I am. I believe the palette includes all warm, cool, and neutrals? I’m not really sure. Besides e.l.f., are they any other eyeshadow palettes you would suggest for a gal in college with a budget? Well, you are very inspirational and do keep up your wonderful work! Thank you!!

Hi Marlena! I’ve found the same thing with a lot of elf’s matte shadows, particularly in the larger palettes. It almost seems as though there is a hard layer on the outside of the matte colors. If you work at it, it’s almost like the color “softens up” or something. Maybe you can shed some light on that? Can makeup oxidize or “dry up” on it’s outer layer?
