For Fall 2012, Hard Candy has released five different Top Ten Eyeshadow Collection Sets ($6). There is one in blues, pinks, greens, neutrals and smokey shades. Each palette comes with 10 eyeshadows in a nice, compact flip top plastic container. The tops of the packaging are so cute with a coordinating padded lace fabric piece. The inside of the lid contains a slim, long mirror.
I don’t have very many green eyeshadow shades, so I decided to purchase the Green With Envy collection. Green With Envy has a nice variety of darker, wearable greens along with several neutral shades. Every color in this collection is a shimmery shade. I immediately thought the colors were beautiful when I first spotted this at WalMart!
As you can see from my swatches, the colors are pretty nice. The eyeshadows apply smoothly and easily blend out. As a warning, these can be quite sheer when you first apply them with an eyeshadow brush, especially the lighter shades. However, they are buildable and look nicely pigmented when you do so.
For the price, I’m pleased with my purchase. I got a lot of great colors for Fall and Winter in this palette that are unlike anything I already own. What do you think of the Hard Candy Green With Envy Top Ten Eyeshadow Collection?
Available online at WalMart.
Did you swatch them with primer? The green shades are really nice. Not bad for $6.
No, I always swatch without primer since not everyone uses an eyeshadow primer. The colors are nice, some are lighter than others, but buildable.
