So last week on Wednesday I received my order from Bf-beauty.com. Not too long ago I heard about them from lady @ Glitter is my Crack... . At $1.50 for a pan the size of MUFE eye shadows, I thought why not give these a try and if they suck, then it's not something I'd cry over. I picked up 10 colors to try out, but I was really curious about their matte shadows since good quality matte e/s are hard to come by. I also ordered a 20 pan empty palette and some false lashes as well cause u can never have too many false lashes! I was impressed with the shipping since I placed my order on a Thursday night and got an email Friday morning saying that they already shipped it. I just did the standard airmail shipping which they stated on their website takes about 5-14 working days but I got it in 4 business days so that made me happy. They also included a lil freebie, some faux nails which I probably won't use but it was a nice gesture anyways.
First impressions of the shadows: These shadows are a hit or miss. Now I can't speak for all of the shades since there are a TON of colors to choose from but I was a bit disappointed with some of the matte ones that I received as they were not as pigmented and a bit chalky. The first 2 pics were swatched on bare skin, no base at all. On the 3rd picture, they were swatched on top of MAC PRO Pure White Chromaline, & 4th pic swatches were made on top of MUFE Aqua Cream #4 Snow. Click the pictures to enlarge...
I'm gonna play around with these and see how well they apply and stay on my lids. So when I do get some good use out of these, I will do a review.
I'm also excited because less then 2 weeks ago, I was contacted by Selina from Cellnique to try out some products from their line for a review and I received them today! I got 2 things which were the Skin Action Sebum Gel & the Advanced Bio renewal Masque.
I'm going to test these out for at least a month before giving it a thorough review so be on the look out for that! Till next time lovelies!
EDIT 7/27/10 @ 3:00pm- I forgot to list the prices of some of the stuff....
If you register for an account on BF-Beauty.com the prices of their stuff are slightly cheaper than if you don't. It's free so you might as well sign up!
For example the eye shadow pans are $1.50 but if you register for an account it's $1.45. Also the empty 20 palette is originally $8.99 but it cost me only $8.72. When you register, you get 20 points which is worth $1.00 that you can use towards your order and everytime you order you get points as well to use for the next purchase. Also what I need to mention is that shipping was DIRT CHEAP. My order came to about $30.00 just for the items without redeeming the points yet and shipping was only $1.20.
They also sell pre-made palettes, brushes, hella lashes which are cheap too, and many more things. Check them out and if you guys do, I'd love to see what you hauled!
