KKCenter HK Eyeshadow Review By kimmiekarmalove

I have reviewed eyelashes in the past for KKCenterHK and they recently contacted me once again to see if I would like to review something again. This time I wanted to see something different from their website so I chose to review an eyeshadow palette from them.

 I received a 3 color eyeshadow palette packaged nicely in a plastic box, inside some bubble wrap and then a regular shipping envelope.
I was a little unsure of how sturdy this packaging would be but it is actually a lot sturdier than it looks. The clasp closes tightly so if you threw this in your purse or makeup bag it won't open on it's own. I'm also pretty sure that this eyeshadow palette is baked but there is no information on the website to confirm that. The website also describes this palette has being Blue & White, which it obviously isn't.
 (Click to enlarge) I specifically picked this palette over another one because I liked the fact that this one was gradient, I thought that I could make a pretty look with it and I do like the shades of this.
 
The entire surface of this palette had chunky glitter on it but it isn't throughout the whole eyeshadow which I like.
 The silver is a very pretty metallic silver.
 The white isn't a plain white at all, it has a pink reflect which I think looks really pretty.
This dark grey is also pretty and I would describe it as a gunmetal or smokey grey. You would be able to do an awesome smokey eye with this little compact!

The shadows are surprisingly pigmented and smooth. I wore them over a primer and no base and still got good color payoff and they blended easily. I wore the silver all over, the dark grey in the outer corner and as a liner and the white as a highlight.

Overall, I'm pretty impressed. I wasn't sure what the quality would be like of the shadow or the packaging and both exceeded my expectations. I feel that the price is fair for this considering some palettes that you could buy at a drugstore that are comparable. I recommend checking out the other colors available as well.

Pricing: $8.80
Shipping: Varies, but for this item to California it was only $2.50

Where to find them:
