    I love The Body Shop eye shadow! This glimmery little palette is awesome. I have very pale skin and blue eyes and these colors look great on me. They are strongly pigmented, a little goes a long way. They are very lightly glittery and kind of natural looking. This eye shadow stays put all day and doesn't irritate my skin.

    The Body Shop is usually a tad pricey but always worth it. The colours are gorgeous and true to what they appear. They glide on smooth and stay put. The shimmer makes eyes light up for a night on the town. Also, you get quite a bit of eyeshadow per cube. They go aq long way. The body shop is known for qaulity and that is exactly whats delivered in these shimmer cubes :)

    I remember my mum first bought me these cubes around fifteen years ago when I was a teenager. To this day, I still use this product. I love how you can rub it straight on the eyelids without a need for a brush. It's the only eyeshadow I've experienced with this strong a pigment. The darker colors go on really beautifully, but the light colors are so subtle and beautiful on pale skin (Presumably on dark skin the opposite would be true) with just a sheen of glitter.

    These last forever and always make you look glamorous. I would recommend to try these to any woman who likes a bit of glitter on the lids.

    By far the best eyeshadow I have used in years. Goes on well and lasts all throughout the day especially if you add a little water to your makeup brush (makes a paint). Also lasts forever. Sometimes goes on shiny but can easily be covered or dulled with a light matte shadow on top. Great for creating a smokey eye.

    Up until this little number, they only things I bought from The Body Shop was lip butter, body butter, and shower cream. Guess I figured that my make up dollars was better spent on drugstore products that I'd been using for years. After this though, I'm going to be making a large investment in Body Shop makeup in the future. Loved the shimmer cubes, and the fact that they are all in their own little cases is great~ They have great staying power, beautiful color and are user friendly when mixing the colors. Well worth the $20 purchase price, and unlike some drugstore brands there is a lot of eye shadow in each square. I'm sure it will take me a long time to use these up, even with my high consumption rate.

    I'm in love!! I usually use eye shadow that I pick up at the drug store (Cover Girl, Maybelline, etc.). They're a good price, and work. For my birthday though, I decided to splurge and try out makeup from The Body Shop. I opted for Palette 07, as the colours caught my eye, and I was impressed! You can either apply these dry (for a lighter shimmery effect) or wet for something more drastic. The colours all look great on their own, and even better when you blend them together. I've never been experimental with my eye colour until recently (I never knew where to start!), but when I got these, I really had fun. I've already discovered a ton of different looks using different colour combinations as well as using them wet or dry.
    Another thing I loved about this, is that this shadow stays! I'm used to my colour disappearing by the end of the day, or ending up with creases on my eyes. Didn't happen this time! I first tried it out for a night out on my birthday, and by the end of the night, my eyes still looked great!
    One thing is, it is a little bulky to carry around. Though the colours are all in their own little individual cases which fit in to the larger case, so you can just take them out, and toss them in to your makeup bag.
