Bobbi Brown’s Luxe Eye Palette comes in a metallic silver case which doubles up as a mirror and fingerprint magnet. It contains 6 eye shadows, mostly in pale and pastel shades of pinks and browns as well as a very mini eye shadow and liner brush. Textures range from mattes to metallic shimmers and sparkle, the shimmers being very subtle.

Shade #1 is Cream, the base shade for all the other eye shadows. I use this all over the eyelid. It’s matte and was the most difficult to show up on my skin. It’s easier to pick up this shade with a brush.

Shade #2 is Pink Opal which is a shimmery icy pale pink. This is the only new shade in the palette.

Shade #3 is Oyster Grey (metallic) although I don’t see any hint of grey or maybe it could be a bit more grey so that it gives some depth and can be seen on the outer corners of the eyes.

Shade #4 is Pink Pearl, a lovely metallic shade which is the darkest pink in the palette.

Shade #5 is Pink Lilac, a sparkly purple-toned pink which didn’t have such good colour pay-off.

Shade #6 is Espresso which is matte and the liner shade.

It’s much better to have brushes albeit mini versions than sponge-tipped brushes which should have no place in non-drugstore eye shadow palettes.

Bobbi Brown Luxe Eye Shadow Palette retails at RM240/10g. It works out to RM40 per eye shadow.
