e.l.f. Studio Endless Eyes Pro Eyeshadow Palette and e.l.f. Studio 85 Piece Complete The Look Palette Review: Swatches and Comparison

Here's my review of two palettes that I own from e.l.f. - the e.l.f. Studio Endless Eyes Pro Eyeshadow Palette and the e.l.f. Studio 85 Piece Complete The Look Palette (Spring Edition not currently sold online). Both of them are $10 USD.

Eyeshadows: some of the colors for the two palettes are quite similar and some are different. My favorite colors are not repeated in the two palettes. The pigmentation of both of these palettes are not that great. Most of the colors come out really muted on the skin even the blacks turn out grey but they are not chalky and fairly easy to blend.

The e.l.f. Studio 85 Piece Complete The Look Palette has less eyeshadow colors but comes with 20 lipstick, 2 blushes and 2 bronzers.

Blushes/Bronzers: The blushes and bronzers for the e.l.f. Studio 85 Piece Complete The Look Palette are amazing. They are not too overpowering with just the right amount of pigmentation which makes them easy to blend. They are a bit more powdery than the studio line blushes.

Lipsticks: The lipsticks are okay. Most of them are dark reds which look quite similar. They are quite pigmented but they just some odd waxy smell that puts me off from wearing them.


Conclusion:
The e.l.f. Studio Endless Eyes Pro Eyeshadow Palette is good if you want to experiment with more eyeshadow colors. Eyeshadows from both of the palettes give you a more subtle but not dramatic look. If you are looking to get blushes/bronzers the e.l.f. Studio 85 Piece Complete The Look Palette is a good choice.
