Coastal Scents 88 Piece Makeup Palette Reviews
#188 in Eye Shadow

Description

This makeup palette has highly pigmented shades; all shadows can also be applied wet for a deeper longer lasting effect. The compact case makes it easy for storing and traveling. The colors do not have a ton of shimmer in them: if this is what you are looking for, you can always dust shimmer over top as I did in the above photo. It is nearly a 50/50 mix of matte and satin with slight shimmer.  Get the perfect look whatever your mood with its wide variety of colours.

    I love this palette! There's so many colors that its a bit overwhelming at first. I had fun just swatching them all. They're all super pigmented. I definitely recommend this to add to your collection.

    I am absolutely IN LOVE with the Coastal Scents 88 Ultra Shimmer palette! The colors are very vibrant and super pigmented (they show up easily). Each shadow is about the size of a dime, maybe a little smaller. Still, the shadows will last a long time depending on how often you use a certain color. I was first interested in this product after watching multiple reviews about it on YouTube. I was torn between this and BH Cosmetics 88 eyeshadow palette. I feel like I made the right choice in purchasing this! The price was very reasonable considering the fact that quality of these shadows are very high! It cost me $19.95 for the palette plus a $6-something S&H;fee. I have done makeup tutorials on YouTube with this palette and I always get requests for more using it! If you want to buy high-end beauty products that won't put a dent in your wallet -- I'm telling you, BUY FROM COASTALSCENTS.COM! I promise you won't regret it! :)

    I purchased Coastal Scents 88 Metal Mania and if you're into shimmery, more neutral colors, this palette seriously has everything you need! For a cheap price, you can get 88 colors ranging from light colors used to highlight, to darker colors used to contour. There are also many corals, pinks and purples included for you to spice up your look! I found that the eyeshadows were very soft and well pigmented (with the exception of a few of the lighter shades, which turned out to be slightly chalky).
    The packaging is beautifu (it comes with a mirror and 2 applicators). The only problem i had with the packaging was the fact that they did squish in a few of the eyeshadows near the bottom center to make room for the closing latch. But other than that, i was very happy with my purchased and would highly recommend this product to anyone interested!

    (note - i did end up swatching the full palette, i included a pic in this review but for full swatches, you can visit my blog! )

    I love, love, love, love, lovex100 LOVE Coastal Scents Palettes!!! I mean first of all, it's at SUCH a great price, i mean where else are you gonna find a price like that. Also, I have been through 3 Coastal Scents palettes in 2 years!! Yes, I use a lot of the eyeshadows. lol. The colors are amazing, so good in variety, they are so very well pigmented. Plus, coastal scents has TONS of different palettes, like talk about metallics, to shimmers to matte's, what else? I never actually bought any other eyeshadow products other than Coastal Scents....literally. I use it everyday, and i will use it forever! :) I definitely recommend this to everyone who is a makeup or beauty lover/junkie!

    LOVE IT. LOVE IT. LOVE IT.

    Coastal Scents is amazing. I love their make up especially their eyeshadow. Like what's not to love? You can get a 88 matte palette for $24.95. HOW CHEAP IS THAT? In addition, it works so well. Definitely a product I would recommend to others!

    I purchased this palette after seeing a number of youtube reviews on it from users such as "makeupbytiffanyd" and "allthatglitters21". The price point was great and shipping costs were reasonable, even to Canada. I received my order in just over a week. I haven't played with the palette a lot yet, but I have tried several eyeshadows and I'm very impressed by both the pigmentation and quality of the shadows. Each shadow is about the size of a dime. This palette would be great for someone who doesn't have a lot of shadows or wants to expand their collection without paying the high costs of some brands like MAC. I highly recommend ordering from coastal scents!

    I've been looking for a great eyeshadow palette that's affordable but yet good quality. If you go to the stores and look at the cheap eyeshadows each one is about 5 dollars and only offer one color or two. Coastal Scents makeup palette offers 88 eyeshadows!! You don't have to use very much as the eyeshadows are VERY VERY pigmented it's amazing quality better than I expected it to be. Don't think twice about getting this palette- the price, the quality, and the packeging is very good quality. I love it! I'm very happy with this product.

    Highly pigmented shades, all shadows can also be applied wet for a deeper longer lasting effect. The compact case makes it easy for storing and traveling.

    The case has a matte surface and measures 9" x 6.5" (23 cm x 16.5 cm) closed, The pots are Dime Size around and contain plenty of powder for many excessive uses.

    The colors do not have a ton of shimmer in them if this is what you are looking for, you can always dust shimmer over top. It is nearly a 50 50 mix of matte and satin with slight shimmer.

    OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG O. MY.GOD! I LOVE MY 88 MATTE PALETTE! Yes, it may not have ever color in the book and sometimes I wish I could have more of a shimmer to certain colors but this palette is honestly worth it! The shipping was awesome too, fully protected with loads of bubble wrap kept my product safe!! Im still buying more eyeshadows from MAC and what not but this is honestly a good product to fall back on, as long as you apply a primer before using the eyeshadows and apply it carefully (to steer away from fall out) your good!!!!!

    I purchased my Coastal Scents eyeshadow palettes off of the company's website. (I am not affiliated with the company- I just really love these products!) I ordered the 88 warm, 88 ultra shimmer, and 88 matte palettes. When I saw the eyeshadows on the website, I was impressed with how many colors were offered in just one palette. The price is approximately $20 for each ( shipping and handling), but it is totally worth the investment. The palettes themselves are very sturdy and come in a sleek black case with labels on each one so you can tell them apart. They were also very easy to open. I expected them to be a little bigger after seeing them on the website, but now that I have them tucked away neatly in my drawer, I appreciate its size. The size of the eyeshadows themselves are about the size of a dime. These will last you a VERY long time because the formula is super pigmented and the color choice is absolutely amazing! You have every color in the rainbow!! The warm palette is excellent too for those who shy away from bold colors and want to keep their looks neutral. This palette comes with both shimmery and satin/matte shades and there are many shades that are great for highlighting the browbone and defining the crease. There really isn't much difference bewteen the ultra shimmer and the regular 88 matte palette, other than the fact that one has a shimmery, pearlized finish and the other doesn't. The quality in all three palettes remains the same. They are long lasting on the lid and I have not had any problems with creasing (with or without a primer on the lid). The palettes do come with a mirror and two sponge tip applicators in each. I prefer to use my own makeup brushes, but it is a good idea if you are travelling. I am thrilled to own these palettes! They are my most favorite out of all the eyeshadows I own.
