Swatches & review: e.l.f. Custom Eyes in Ivory, Golden Glow, Driftwood and Dusk

Hi!
Today I have  e.l.f. Custom Eyes eye shadows in Ivory, Golden Glow, Driftwood and  Dusk swatches and short review for you. I have been playing around with these about a week (you can see one look with these HERE) and so why not show you the swatches and share my opinion about these.

Swatches

As always first swatch is on bare skin and the second one is swatches over primer (e.l.f Mineral Eyeshadow Primer)

So these eye shadows do look pretty in the pan. I was somewhat disappointed after swatching these (especially in shade Ivory) because I expected these eye shadows to be more pigmented, but oh well I won´t complain, because since I bought them when they were on sale (£0.45 / €0.55 each) then these were CHEAP and so I regret that I didn´t purchase all the other shades too. But I would not pay full price for these.
What I like about these eye shadows is that they look great for everyday look and they stay on very pretty all day without creasing or fading. During application there is some fallout (especially shade Golden Glow) and so again I advise using an extra layer of powder under eyes that you can  just brush off when you have finished.

And here is one look  with these eye shadows (shades Ivory, Golden Glow and Dusk)

  1. The makeup look that you created with them looks amazing! It's too bad that they aren't as pigmented as you hoped, but Golden Glow looks beautiful!

  2. They look good on. I hate when they are gorgeous in the pan and not on the skin!

    Hope you grow to like them
