Yesterday, I wrote about being inspired to purchase IUNIK Vitamin Hyaluronic Acid Vitalizing Toner because of a blogger's review. Today's review was inspired by another blogger, Cindy from Prime Beauty Blog. I read Cindy's accolades about this palette a few weeks before Christmas when I was trying to spend enough money at Sephora to maintain my VIB status for next year.

The gorgeous palette was on sale at Sephora for $29 marked downward from $45 just after Thanksgiving, and it put me over the top to continue my VIB status. Good news for those of you who might be looking for a post Christmas cocky-treat that'due south perfect for New year's Eve and beyond, because BECCA Apres Ski Eye Lights palette is further marked downwardly at Sephora to $22.l. Plus Ebates members can go an additional iii% back. So worth it if you lot need a fix of satiny and shimmery neutral shades that you can use both every bit eyeshadows and as highlighters!

The limited edition Après Ski Eye Lights Palette is an improver to the BECCA Après Ski Glow drove that featured the Glow Face Palette of blushes, contours and highlighters. In fact, 5 of the shades are taken from the Face Palette: Pearl, Rose Quartz, Moonstone, Opal, and Topaz. Non having seen the confront palette in person, I can't say if they're exactly the same, but BECCA says that the Shimmering Pare Perfector Pressed Highlighter formula was adapted for the eyes (though I utilize them as highlighters too!).

The shades come up in two finishes: satin and shimmer. Truth exist told, I wish they threw in a true neutral matte brownish, merely I all the same dear the palette anyhow. I either use the darker satins, or I reach for my handy trivial Huda Beauty Smokey Obsessions Palette for the mattes, and I'thou good to go.

The shadows are not overly powdery from the pan. I tap my brush, and there'southward no fallout on my eyes. They're buttery and easy to blend. They're decently pigmented (though IMHO non highly pigmented) with plenty shimmer and bling without being disco ball glittery. They last as long as I need them to over primer which is the only style I clothing them or any shadows.

A couple of the light shades are not that far off from my pare tone so they don't show up as well as the darker ones in the photo below. Here are the swatches over Milani Center Primer in ambient light.
