Makeup Haven: Buxom Eyeshadows

I have heard a lot about Buxom eye shadows for a while now so I decided to try some out in a customizable palette. Buxom do have some pre-made palettes to choose from however I chose to try out colors that I would know I would wear and love. The palette retails for $40 for 6 shadows at Sephora, Ulta and Macys.

Mink Magnet - this is described as a metallic bronze. On my darker skin this shows more as a rose bronze than a actual bronzy bronze. The texture on this shadow is a bit chunky to the touch but it blends out beautifully on the eye.

Haute Couture - this is described as a metallic Java. I would say that the color description on this is right on. If you have darker skin this would be a beautiful lid color for a Smokey eye. This is smooth to the touch unlike the mink Magnet even tho it is also a metallic shade

Spoiled Sexy - this is described as a Matte Mauve. This is a beautiful matte highly pigmented cool toned mauve that is great for a crease color for almost any skin tone. It is darker than MAC Haux but is almost the same color. If you already have Haux from MAC then you do not need this color. Personally I find that Spooled sexy blends in a bit better.

Filthy Rich - this is described as a Matte Chestnut. This is a extremely warm medium tone brown. On lighter skin this would most likely look more of a orange brown. This is more darker and richer than than MAC brown script

Big Spender - is described as a Matte Sable. This is a dark neutral toned brown. On darker skin this is a very natural outta V color for a day look

Hot or Yacht - is described as a Matte Ash. This is more of a black/brown cool toned color. Out of all the matte colors I have I did find that this was the hardest to blend. While it did blend it took a bit of an effort for me to really get this color blending without looking patchy. If you have drier eyelids then I would say skip this color
