Coastal Scents Eyeshadow Review and Swatches

Hey guys!
If you are checking out this post you have probably checked out my Coastal Scents haul and just want to see the swatches with minimal rambling:) So, here it is:

Pigments, Shadows and Mica Powders

1. Pink Illusion (loose mineral shadow)
2. Elusive Icicle (loose mineral shadow)
3. Blue-Red Chrome (mica powder)
4. Absinthe (loose mineral shadow)
5. Violet Rush (loose mineral shadow)
6. Molten Silver (loose mineral shadow)
7. Whipped Mint (loose mineral shadow)

Thoughts:
I have enjoyed wearing the Pink Illusion shadow with a matte mauve in the crease like the one from the Lorac Pro palette. Also, the Blue-Red Chrome made for a fun colorful eye but, the "red" comes off as more pink than red. Overall, I like the color and texture of these shadows.

1. Mirage Silver (mica pigment)
2. Pearlescent Sparkling Gold (mica pigment)
3. Porcelain Pear (loose mineral shadow)
4. Lilac Mist (loose mineral shadow)
5.Lavish Lavender (loose mineral shadow)

Thoughts:
I LOVE the two pigments! I have worn them both in a subtle and dramatic way and they look great. The texture is really nice for a sparkling pigment and you can really build them up for a concentrated application. I have not played with the other shadows enough to have a defnite opinion but, I like the colors and the texture is nice.

 

Hot Pots:

1. Dreamcicle
2.Victorian Ruby
3. Maroon Berry
4.Peachy Copper
5. Sun Worshiper
6. Reef Pink
7. Sunbeam
8.Reef Blue
9. Edgy Eggplant
10. Chocolate Berry

Thoughts:
These are AMAZING!! Smooth, creamy, blendable, pigmented and the price is fab. I have nothing but good things to say about the ones I picked up! I can't wait to get more!

 Bronzer:

Thoughts: This was the most disappointing because it's too shimmery for my taste. With that said, the color is nice and it's easy to blend. I am still going to try and use it a few times to see what I can do with it.

 

Overall, I am happy with my purchase and I'm glad I took a chance and tried a variety of the line. Definitely check it out because for the price you can't go wrong!
