Oradess Eyeshadow Review with Photos and Swatches

I was sent this GORGEOUS palette for review from Julia at MakeupSale.com.au.
This site is kind of like Inglot but better... It's Australian owned, much cheaper and has an awesome array of shadows you can make into your own custom palette. I highly reccomend that you check it out- I was incredibly surprised! On to the review...

The Short? AMAZING! Definite re-purchase

The Long?

The palette contains four colours made especially to enhance blue eyes- Gold Satin, Blue Sapphire, Charcoal and Antique White. I was pretty chuffed when I received it as I have blue-ish green eyes that change colour depending on the weather- when it's clear, they're blue and overcast, green. That means I need both shadows for blue AND green eyes... oh the expense.

Here are the colours:

Antique White
This is the perfect shade to add highlight to any eye creation. With just the right amount of lustre add this shade just under the peak of the brow bone for an instant brow lift. Add a touch to the inner corner of the eye or the top of the cheek bone. Any area you want to highlight or bring forward. Goes with: All colours
 
Blue Sapphire
Yes, you can wear blue! It doesn't have to be relegated the 80’s – worn well you can add a touch of glamour to your everyday. Worn along the lash line to frame your beautiful blue or brown eyes. Other colours: Antique White, Gold Satin, Champagne Beige, Charcoal


Charcoal
Charcoal goes with everything. This demi-matte shade has a little hint of lustre without making the eyes look shiny. A soft generous colour it ensures that you can create shape and drama or a soft smokey eye

Gold Satin
Add a touch of class to your make-up. This gold is ideal on darker skin tones. Use it as a colour wash across the eyelid on its own or add a touch to the inner corner of the eye. Any area you want to highlight or bring forward. Goes with: Antique White, Radiant Copper, Warm Chestnut, Rich Chocolate, Blue Sapphire


The Palette

The four shadows are placed in a sleek black palette along with two sponge applicators. There is a clear lid to cover the shadows to they stay in place and don't mess up the mirror- a BIG win!




How I Wore the Look

I wore the look with the gold washed over the lid, blue on the outer corner and charcoal in the crease. The white was used to highlight the brow bone.
I also lined my eyes with Napoleon Perdis China Doll eyeliner and used Maybeline Falsies as my mascara.

Don't mind me, I'm just Vogue-ing

Hehehe I took this in the surgery at work....


I hope you enjoyed this review! I had A LOT of fun figuring out how to use the blue. In the pan it looked a bit scary, but on the lid it was just stunning! No freakish 80's eyes here... it;s very modern, clean and silky. Oh and I'm just IN LOVE with Gold Satin. OMG it's just incredible! I think it's going to be a daily wear from now on...

Let me know what you guys think! Do you love freedom palettes?

Keep it Haute!
