Pandora’s Makeup Box: Swatches!
I raved about these products from Pandora’s Makeup Box the other day and thought I’d provide a closer look at two of the products I was sent — the shadow quad called It’s a Fall Day, and the blush called Lolita. Gorgeous colours with fantastic pigmentation.
Below is Lolita. I did a heavy swatch to show you the colour. You can see that a little of this colour goes a long way. Love the glow it gives.
Below are the swatches of “It’s a Fall Day” Quad:
(Left to right)
Chocolate (matte dark brown); Moulin Rouge (shimmary burnt orange — dupe for the similar colour in MAC’s Spiced Chocolate quad); GoldRush (gold colour with shimmer); Spun Gold (white gold highlight colour; shimmer).
Pans can be removed just like MAC palettes. They are bigger in size at 4 g/.14 oz.
I can’t wait for my next order to come in! Hopefully Monday. I’ll share the swatches of the lipstick and gloss tomorrow as well as show you the Eye Primer and Powder.

The burnt orange colour is a dupe for the one in the Spiced Choc quad. I'll do a comparison swatch tomorrow.

Wow, Lolita is SO pretty, I love it! Such a gorgeous colour and the finish is 'just' right – not too shimmery or glittery and not too matte x

@Lisa: It is even prettier in person. All the products are so pigmented and smooth. I ordered another blush so I'm curious to see how the texture is on that one.
