Gold By Giles (Buff Brown) Eye Shadow

I have read a few blogs on the same eyeshadow pallet and to be honest many of them seem pretty negative about this pallet. My mum actually gave me this pallet because she hated it. However, I have quickly warmed to it.

The pallet consists of a quad of shadows. Don't get me wrong, I do admit they don't (as usually in a quad they would) compliment one another very well, but as a shadow, its not bad at all. Especially considering the price tag of £2 (was £3.99). I personally wore the bottom left and right together a few days running. I feel they give a lovely smokey eye and are brilliant for contouring. I love the rustiness of the colours and feel they would look lovely in autumn. They compliment both brown and blue/green eyes which is also a bonus. The shadows are pretty long wearing, and were still noticeable by the end of the day, although a little faded. They are really pigmented which I actually found a slight down fall as I much prefer a subtle look by day.

On the whole, for the sake of £2 this is a lovely little pallet and I would advise anyone to try it out.
