You guys know I'm a big fan of drugstore makeup, so when I was asked to try a makeup palette from The Color Workshop, I excitedly said yes! It's from the same company, Markwins International that created Wet n Wild cosmetics so I knew it was going to be a good one. The palette is cute and compact and it has all the makeup you need: 36 eyeshadows, 2 blushers, 8 pressed powders, 8 lipglosses, 2 eye liners, 2 lip liners, a sponge and some applicators. Wow, that's a lot of product in such a tiny palette. Now you might be wondering, is it any good? Well, I've been playing with it and I can honestly say that it's pretty good. The quality reminds me of the Coastal Scents or BH cosmetics 88 eye shadows palette that's really popular but for a much cheaper price. It's currently on sale at Walmart for $7!!!

What I like:
- It's so cute and compact. It's about the size of a CD case. It's perfect for travelling.
- It comes with a mirror. I love any palette with a mirror!
- It has everything you need to do your makeup. Again, it has 36 eyeshadows, 2 blushers, 8 pressed powders, 8 lipglosses, 2 eye liners and 2 lip liners.
- A great selection of eyeshadow colors: neutrals, pinks, purples, blues, grays and darks. You can definitely create a variety of looks.
- The blushers are gorgeous, pigmented and blends very well.
- The lip color and lip glosses are really nice. They have a great color pay off and are smooth on the lips and not too sticky.
- The lip liners are smooth and doesn't tug on the lips.
- The price. It retails for $10 but currently on sale at Walmart for $7!
What I don't like:
- The texture and quality of the eye shadows is inconsistent. Some shadows are more pigmented than others and you have to pack it on or apply underneath a color base to get the best color pay off. But I say about 80 percent of the eyeshadows has a nice pigmentation, so it's not too bad.
- The eye liners don't last very long.
- The packaging is not very sturdy so don't drop it lol.
Here are more photos of the palette...

I hope it becomes available in PH but I doubt it will be as inexpensive though. But that's a really good steal! :)
ReplyDeleteCan't believe how pigmented the swatches are and for that price it's a major steal.
ReplyDeleteGood stuff at very affordable price!!
ReplyDeleteDid anyone tried this ??
that very common problems in palettes. Some shadows are better than others! Thanks for the review
ReplyDeleteWow,$7, what a bargain!!
ReplyDeleteI've got a Markwins International palette, and most of the eyeshadows are pretty good (:
What I most like about this brand is that they do not test on animals, YAY!
I would love to see your tutorial (:

I always thought about getting a palette myself but people always say it doesn't really pay off because there are always some colours in it that you never use. Is this true? Do you leave half of the colours untuched?
ReplyDeleteHello, my name is Sheri and I have finally put up another blog about your makeup expiring...please go check it out and also if you would like leave a comment, I do like to get other people's feedback/opinions....
ReplyDeleteThank you
The kit is a definite steal for that price. I wouldn't be surprised if stock run out. The close-up snaps was helpful in determining the given shades.
ReplyDeleteI went to a local Walmart and couldn't find it. Which section did you pick it up by
ReplyDeleteWow!!! This is really a great bargain. You are so lucky to find this for you have it all in one product. Love the shades. I wanna have one too =)
