Favourite Eye Shadows

First of all, sorry the photos aren't of great quality!


GOSH Effect Powder in Satin and Barry M Dazzle Dusts in Mushroom and Teal. Teal is more intense than the photo suggests.


MUA Eye Shadows in shades 1, 6, 8 and 11. I LOVE these! For £1 they are great quality. I really want MUA to bring out other shades; a gold would be nice.


Urban Decay YDK, Half Baked and Twice Baked.


And of course, the Original Sleek palette.

Urban Decay Primer Potion Test

I received the Urban Decay Sustainable Shadow Box for my birthday and it came with a mini primer potion. I'd never used a primer potion before and didn't think it could make such a big difference!
The colours I have tested below are (From left to right): Half Baked, YDK and Twice Baked. These are my favourites from the set because they're smooth and pigmented (A few others contain glitter which I'm not found of.)

Top photo: The eyeshadows swatched with primer potion and without. As you can see, the eyeshadows with primer potion are more pigmented.
Middle photo: After wiping them off of my arm with considerable force. The swatches without primer potion used are nearly gone whereas the ones with primer potion are still intact.
Bottom photo: After wiping off with a facial wipe. Swatches without primer potion have disappeared but you can still see the primer potion swatches.

I am so impressed! I think I'm going to buy a primer from ELF as it will be cheaper than Urban Decay. If I don't like it, I'll purchase the Urban Decay one :)
