Happy Memorial Day Weekend, everyone! :D
How are you all spending the long weekend? Whatever it is you are doing, I hope you are having fun! :)
When I have some spare time, I really try to do some swatches for you guys. :)
Good news is I had some time this past week to take photos of my

I bought this last year for $19.95 -- very affordable, huh?!
The packaging is not the best, but I don't mind because you get 88 colors for $19.95 -- why would I complain, right?
And another good thing about this is the colors are pigmented.
I swatched a color from each row for you guys to see. :)
There are 11 rows with 8 colors each.

*My arm looks weird, hahaha!*
There may be some fall outs, but you can easily fix that by sweeping it up with loose powder. You can also use MAC Fix+ or just plain, good old water to get less fall outs and a deeper shade.

It comes with dual end foam applicators, but I like using my own eyeshadow brush.
All in all, I think this is a really great buy! It feels like it has all the colors you can possibly think of. ;)
If you don't want much of a shimmer, they also have an 88 Original Palette -- the same beautiful colors without the shimmer for $18.95!
Coastal Scents has a ton of other products, so check out their website to see which one will strike your fancy. :)
Have you ever bought anything from Coastal Scents? Any recommendations?
Have a fantastic weekend, guys! :D
