I was impressed by LA Colors Eyeshadow Trios before. They are cheap and have great color payoff and staying power. So when I saw these I got excited. I wanted to see if they were like the originals. These are the five I discovered at my local Dollar Tree Store. I didn't purchase them all even though the price is right at $1 each. I need eyeshadow like a hole in the head lol. Forgive the quality of the photos I took them with my cell phone that's no iphone lol!
Swatch Time!
Water Lilly Trio: The blue and the pink were nice, shimmery and highly pigmented,
but the green was a bit to powdery and icy looking.
Orchid Trio: The Pink and the Peach were also too powdery.
The Brown is highly pigmented and has nice shimmer.
The low down:
I'm not as impressed with these as the originals, but there were a few colors that were great. Then again if only one is great it's not that much of a lo$$.
Don't underestimate the cheepies! Happy Shopping!
