Review, Swatches and Eye Look: Chi Chi Bronzes Palette

 

Chi Chi are a cruelty-free Aussie brand, and although I've seen them around Myer and Target and bought their products as gifts, I'd never really delved into their line myself. I've had this 'Bronzes' palette for a while from their 'glamorous eye' collection, and think it's the perfect mix of neutral and night time colours.


 

The eyeshadows are housed in a lightweight plastic palette,  that does feel quite sturdy, but also feels a bit cheap. The name of the palette is blazoned across the front in silver, which honestly I quite like. I also have the 'brights' palette from Chi Chi, and it has the exact same packaging. I know it's not really important, but it makes me happy that they match and sit nicely together in my collection. The palette also came with two of those foamy applicator things, but I threw them straight in the rubbish. 

 

The palette comes with 12 eyeshadows, and is priced at $24.95. I'm not sure how much product you actually get in the pan; I threw away the box that came with this palette months ago, and their website is pretty unhelpful.  Overall though, there is heaps of product in this tiny palette, and being small and lightweight, it would be perfect for travelling. 

The eyeshadows themselves are very pigmented, and all of them are quite shimmery with not one matte colour in the pan. The quality of them is quite nice, they apply easily and blend out nicely.

SWATCHES

 

The first six colours in the pan. These are the lighter shades in the palette. The black (first colour in the palette) has a gold tone to it with gold shimmer throughout, whilst the black on the other end of the palette (twelfth) has more of a silvery tone. 


Colours 7-12. These are obviously the darker toned colours.

The shades are all beautiful, easy to wear and last all day. The below images were taken after a whole day of wear, straight after getting home from uni. 

EYE LOOK

I used colours 7 for the lid shade, 11 and 12 in the crease and 3 as a brow bone highlight.
