Kat Von D Eyeshadow

- March 14, 2018

I have been looking for a long time for a matte eyeshadow palette in blacks and greys, and I was really happy when I saw a demo of the Kat Von D Shade + Light palette and discovered it was matte.

Kat Von D recently opened a counter at Debenhams in my closest town so I popped in and picked one up. I was excited to try it on and so was pretty disappointed to open it at home and find it was smashed to bits (and making a huge mess all over the bed cover where I was sitting). I took it back the next day and the girls were apologetic and said it was the 3rd return from that batch and they were now suspecting the courier had been banging it about. The eyeshadows are quite soft and so on reflection if they were being roughly transported I guess that does explain it.

I really like the 3 smaller colours, black, grey and white, but to be honest the other colour isn't my colour at all, and something with a purple or pink hue would have been better for me.

They are soft, but thankfully there isnt much fall out, and they do blend quite well, and the pigment is good, especially the white which often fades away quickly with other brands.
