Hey Cupcakes!


I hope everyone is having a fantastic day! Today I am here to talk about a palette from Sacha Cosmetics, some of you may not be familiar with this particular brand in the US but people from the Caribbean can identify. Just as a little history, Sacha Cosmetics was founded in the the country of Trinidad and Tobago (my home country :D) with the vision of catering for exotic skin tones like those of the ladies in Trinidad and Tobago.


Now, on to the review. I got the palette from my sister as a gift, I was beyond excited because I had heard so many good things about Sacha Cosmetics and I must say I was not disappointed. First thing that came to mind when putting on this eye shadow for the first time was "good quality", the texture sort of reminds me of Urban Decay eye shadows but it's not the same.You get 8 hour wear without a primer. What I did not like was some of the colors were not as silky smooth, it was hard to get true color and the fall out (minuscule with a quick fix of powder :)) 


Here are swatches of all the colors:





This palette consists of Greens and Neutral shades making it easy for every day use or formal occasions. It may be pricey for some but the quality is good and you get 14 shades for $25USD so it isn't all that bad in my opinion. All shadows have gold shimmer.


Here is a natural look I created with the Neutral colors from the palette:



If you are looking to try something different you can give this brand a try, if you do please let me know and if you own Sacha's products feel free to leave a comment in the comment section of your experience.

Hey Everyone!

I want to start off this review by saying that, I LOVE this palette! It comes in 6 different shades, 3 matte and 3 shimmer. The matte shades are great for when you want a natural look for everyday or if you just prefer wearing matte eye shadow over shimmer. There is not a bad thing I have to say about this eye shadow, once you wear a primer before application the product does not fade and even without primer you get a decent 6 hour wear.  For night time or whenever you prefer you can vamp up your look like this smokey eye I created: 




Here are swatches:




This is my go-to palette and I highly recommend this! Not to mention at a great price!
