Evil Shades Cosmetics- A Review

 The Company:
I have seen reviews and looks done with EvilShades Cosmetics for awhile now and for some reason I just never ordered from them.. I have browsed the site.. but never placed an order.. honestly I have no idea why.. after a couple blogger friends told me I HAVE to order from ES I told myself I will place no other order till I order from ES.. I decided to go with a blogger pack which offered my choice of 5 shadows, 3 blushes and 4 lippies for $10.00.

Shipping and packaging:
It only took a couple weeks for my order to arrive ( I completely forgot to type everything down) but everything came within TAT time. My order arrived in a bubble mailer and everything came in a super cute soft teal organza bag. The shadows came in clamshells, the blushes came in a pot shell? I don't know what they are called and the lippies came in a mix of clamshell and a cute little holder..

 As far as the shadows.. all shadows go on super smooth and look great! I know I went a little nutty with the purples but.. you know me .... :)  The blushes are lovely and unique! The lippies are amazing and much better then I thought! The only thing is that Deception is a bit clumpy and a little oily.. it could have been the container or maybe that is the way it is.. but it's a great color!

Favorites:

Illusive (shadow)

Final thought:

Pros:

-Fair pricing
-Shipped withing TAT
-Cute packaging 
-Pretty good Selection
-Great color payoff
-Unique color palette
Cons:

-The only complaint I have is that Deception was a little clumpy and oily.. it may have been cause of the small container.

Will I be ordering agian? Most definitely!! I have got to get my hands on some of those lippies..I like this company.. not only the persona.. but the final product!! Can't wait for my next order!!!
