I was at Forever 21 the other day, browsing their accessories, when I came across these eyeshadow palettes from their Love & Beauty line of makeup. I was a little hesitant at first, but for $6.80 each, I figured I give them a try. The two I purchased are the Love at First Sight palettes. They had two color selections to choose from, I got both. One is the taupe/purple palette, the other, gold/olive palette (These were the actual names on the back of the package).

I was pleasantly surprised to find the colors nicely pigmented with smooth, silky textures. They all had good color payoff, though the bright purple color was a tad bit powdery. I wore a look using the colors in the olive/gold palette today and was pleased. They blended very well and I had no fallout. The packaging was nice and sturdy. They come in a gold metallic plastic slim compact with a mirror. Not bad for $6.80.

My only gripe is that the two palettes shared a majority of the colors. The taupe/purple palette had only 1 purple in it and 3 of the same colors as the gold/olive palette. Overall, I am pleased with the purchase.
Thanks for sharing. I almost picked them up, but I wasn't sure how they would work out.
