Review: Concrete Minerals Pro Matte Eye Shadows

Hello Dolls! Today I bring you a review on a makeup brand that I was introduced to a couple of months back. Concrete Minerals Cosmetics is a mineral makeup brand that was founded in 2009. They specialize in mineral makeup*, mostly eye shadows, that do not contain parabens, fragrances and other fillers. Recently they introduced a complete collection of pro matte shadows. Shadows that are intensely pigmented and incredibly matte. The pro matte shadows consist of 13 eye shadows that cover the entire rainbow. 

Packaging: 
All Concrete Minerals orders come with two complementary samples, of decent size I may add, and and a business card.

FOTD: Bulletpoof!

Hello Dolls! I saw a look like this on Beautylish  couple of weeks back. That look was done using Urban Decays Chaos, a bright almost neon royal blue, sadly this shadow was a limited edition color. And sadly for me I never got my greedy little hands on that color, but last week I got a package from Concrete Minerals. In that package came a color very very similar to Chaos!! I decided to recreate the look using the products I had in hand and came out with this. 
-I tried out a new foundation while doing this look an completely hated it when I was photographing my look!! So, please excuse if my foundation inst up to par and washes me out a bit-

Wet N' Wild 8 Pan Palette Collection & Dupes

Wet N' Wild was never a brand that I ever reached for at the drugstore. But after receiving one of these pans as a gift I fell in love with this brand. For a drugstore brand Wet N' Wild has an amazing range of shadows and lipsticks!! The pigmentation in these shadows is comparable with high end brands, and the price for the palettes is unbelievable at only $4.99 for an 8 pan eyeshadow palette. 

Today I will be swatching and listing dupes held in the Wet N' Wild 8 pan palettes. 

Comfort Zone Palette
I like to call this the forrest palette. The colors in this palette are very nature inspired. There are no mattes in this palette, they are all shimmer which is a con for me. They are very very pigmented they are also very creamy and soft which could be a pro or con.
(I had horrible luck with this my palette fell right before I began snapping pictures, and my finger slipped as I tried to open it)
