Up for review today is the w7 In The Buff: Lightly Toasted palette.
This palette contains 12 beautiful eye shadows shades mixing both nude shimmers and matte colours. I couldnt wait to test out each of the colours, and create some beautiful looks, and for a small £9.99 for 12 eyeshadows you really cant complain. Although the palette eye shadows are clearly inspired by the popular Urban Decay Naked palette, this palette really does come into its own.

I was really impressed with the pigmentation of the eye
shadows, the cheaper price tag in this case has really not hindered the quality
of the eye shadows. You do occasionally need to build up the colour especially
the lighter matte shades, however after a two, sometimes three applications the
eye shadows really do give a beautiful colour. The eye shadows are really easy
to blend together to form a lovely natural look. The eye shadows do give quite a bit of fall
out especially the shimmery colours, so after using the palette a few times, I
have found that it becomes a tad messy. I used the MUA pro-base eye primer (see my review of the eye primer here) before applying the eye shadow and it definitely helped to improve the staying
power of the eyeshadows by a couple of hours so I would definitely recommend
this, and at only £2.50 this still comes
in way under the price of the Urban Decay palette. However when not using the
primer the eye shadows lasts for about 4 hours without creasing.
The palette comes with a double ended brush, one end is a
small eye shadow brush, the other is a sponge applicator. I have mainly been
using my own Makeup Revolution or EcoTools brush to apply the eye shadows, but the
brush in handy for if travelling and wanting to take the palette with you.
If you are looking for a eye shadow palette which a mixture
of matte and shimmery natural tones whilst on a budget then this is the palette
for you. I would definitely recommend treating yourself to a eye primer to use
with the palette just to help the staying power of the palette. You can
purchase the palette directly from the w7 website. Get it now, and thank me
later girls.
Until next time
love and kisses
