So, after reviewing 3 products from my Flipkart Haul and disliking all 3 of them, today I have an eyeshadow palette which I was most excited about. The product I have today is from Glam 21 and it is a 51 color Professional Glam 21 Eyeshadow Palette.
When I first started doing makeup years back, there were not many brands in India which sold these huge eye palettes and I always wanted to have some. But these days the market is flooded with large makeup palettes from many brands. Some of the brands are super pricey while some other are very affordable like the one I have today.
Price:
This eyeshadow palette with 51 eyeshadows retails for Rs 270 with a delivery charge of Rs 30. A total of 300 Rs makes each color in the palette worth just Rs 5.8 (BUY HERE)
Ingredients:
A list of ingredients is mentioned on the back of the packaging of the palette.
Packaging:
As the palette was just 300 bucks I honestly did not expect much from the quality or the packaging. I didn’t even expect the size it actually is. But to my surprise, the palette is nicely packed in a black cardboard box with a double layer of another box inside the main box. The palette itself is sturdy and pretty heavy. The palette comes with 51 colors (as already mentioned), a full sized mirror and 2 double-sided applicators. The only minus in the packaging is the fact that the palette do not close with a click and I always feel that it is not closed properly.
My Experience with Glam 21 Eyeshadow Palette:
As I have already mentioned, this particular palette contains 51 shades with every possible color you can think of. Most of the colors in the palette are kind of shimmery with a high pigmented foil texture. A couple of colors like a black and some deeper blues and not as pigmented as some of the other colors. All the eyeshadows are smooth to touch and they do feel good on the eyes.
They are good to be applied with an eye brush but they work best when used with the finger. I have tried the shadows wet too, but they do not blend too well with a wet brush. There is exactly no fall out if the shadows are
The staying power of the colors is average. It certainly won’t last 7-8 hours, but they are good to go for a small function for 3-4 hours.
Swatches:
As there were too many colors in the palette, I have swatched just a couple of color to give you an idea about the pigmentation of the colors in the palette.
Overall Experience:
This is actually the only product from my Flipkart Haul that I have actually liked. I liked playing with the colors and I am really impressed with the pigmentation of some of the colors. Also, a full sized mirror is always a plus.
Do I recommed this palette:
Before even trying the palette, I was impressed with the size and the color options in the palette at such a great price. Now, that I have tried it, I would say that this is not the best quality but the pigmentation and blendability of the shadows is not so bad. The palette with 51 colors that too just for 300 bucks is definitely worth a try. This is not a good option for ladies who already own a lot of makeup as they would not like the quality, but for a
Rating: 3/5 (Due to the quality of the product as compared to the price)
