I’ve never had a chance to work with or own any loose powder eye shadow. So when I saw this trio I knew I had to have it.

The box is designed much like everything in the collection, reflective of the Caviar and Oyster theme.

According to Nordstrom…

Standout eyes are as easy as one, two, three with a trio of pearly eye powders in Black Pearl, Moonlight and Pink Pearl. Easy to apply and blend, each shadow boasts 95% pure pearl pigments and rich sparkle to create a subtle wash of shimmer or a burst of ultra-intense color depending on application. With crease-free wear and flake-proof color, you’ll be tempted to gift one to yourself.

I think it’s pretty brilliant to have the powder contained in such a container with it’s own sponge tip applicator attached to the cap.

I’m glad I “gifted” this trio to myself. I think they’re easy to work with. Fallout is not much of an issue and colors are beautiful on the lid. It is now available at Macy’s, Nordstrom and online at Bobbi Brown for $46. I got mine at Macy’s.

What do you think? Is it worth the price tag?

Extreme Party Eye Palette | Bobbi Brown Holiday 2012

I seem to be on a party theme with the addition of the Extreme Party Eye Palette to my makeup wardrobe. At first glance it will make you think that the colors are similar to the Rich Caviar Eye Palette (read about it HERE). But it’s not the same really. The colors are super pigmented, build-able and easy to blend. It is such a value considering the nine shadows and 4 mini brushes included in the palette. Those brushes are not staying in the palette, they will be relocated to the makeup kit I keep inside my purse.

According to Bobbi Brown…

Like a jewel box, the Extreme Party Eye Palette contains nine luxe shadows designed to instantly make eyes look party-ready. It includes a highlighter shade, seven lid shades and a liner shade. Four professional-quality brushes – Eye Shadow Brush, Angle Eye Shadow Brush, Eye Smudge Brush, Eye Liner Brush – make it easy to apply the shadows like a pro. A mirrored compact goes everywhere you go.

Let’s check it out.

I can’t believe it’s so beautifully pigmented. It’s now available in-stores at Nordstrom but I don’t see it online. It will be available in November online at Bobbi Brown. I got mine in-store at Nordstrom for $75.
