But they are both creamy shimmery shades.
#STORY BOOK PALETTE SKIN#
So far, I’ve not really experimented with the shades Merlin or Potions purely because they are colours that don’t really go well with my skin tone, but also, as I’m still quite new to make-up, truthfully they are colours that scare me, and I’ve yet to build up the courage to try out a look with them. Jinx is a silver, that’s not as creamy as Bewitched (and is a little patchy) BUT it works really well as an inner corner highlight shade, or underneath the lower lash line for a bit of ‘BLAM!’.īroomstick and Spellbook are gorgeous matte shades (with the former being a more chocolate brown, and the latter a slightly more red-ish brown) that are perfect for the crease, the inner corner or even all over the lid for a bold, smoky look. Betwitched is a particular favourite colour of mine this high-shine rose gold colour is creamy, and is the perfect shade for the lid. Most of the metallic shades seem to work well straight off the brush (I know for some metallic shadows, you might need to use some setting spray on the brush, or a glitter glue). They offer a good amount of coverage and blend into each other very well. The shades inside the palette are very pigmented, and they do have a slightly creamy consistency. There are a few cooler toned shades as well (the gorgeous metallic shade Merlin). One of my favourite eyeshadow palettes of all time is the Naked Heat palette by Urban Decay, so there were a few shades here that I imagined would pair quite well with the Heat palette. The palette overall feels very warm-toned, which I think is why it appeals to me very highly. Inside the palette, you will find 12 shades in a range of mattes, metallic and pearl finishes. Since then, they have dedicated themselves to crafting whimsical and wonderful cosmetics products, that tap into our love and admiration of all things fairytale and beyond.
#STORY BOOK PALETTE SERIES#
The company went viral when they released a series of magic wand make-up brushes (which yes, I do want to get at some point, because reasons). Storybook Cosmetics is an independent make-up brand, owned by identical triplets Erin, Mandy and Missy Maynard. Anyway, that’s the gushy stuff out of the way… About the Brand
On Christmas Day, I pulled this out along with a few other select make-up items I had asked for, and I was so excited! I am so happy to have a husband that indulges me in my weirdness, and accepts me for who I am.
Of course, I don’t have magical powers, so I had to wait for christmas to get my hands on this little beauty. So when I saw the Wizardry and Witchcraft Eyeshadow Palette from Storybook Cosmetics, I was like… Accio! Well I suppose we’d best kick things off and start talking about some makeup? So if there is anything else you should know about me, right off the bat is that I am a HUGE Harry Potter fan.
