I love eye shadow palettes and also love reviewing them, too! I received the fun new Maybelline New York Lemonade Craze Palette for my honest review. I was so excited, because I really wanted to try it!
I want to show you the back of the palette. There are three different look tutorials:
I have been testing this for about a week, and have been using the same shades each time. So these were helpful in giving me new ideas!
Here is the beautiful palette before I dug into it!
Here’s the swatches:
These swatches are of the top half of the palette. The shades are Sherbet, Berry Ice, Strawberry Lemonade, Sunnies, Lemonade Craze and Main Squeeze. My favorite shade in the palette is Strawberry Lemonade. It’s so gorgeous and shimmery. I love the color. And I want to apply it every time I use this palette!
I first swatched these on my inner arm, but they didn’t show up because I’m so pale! So I swatched these on the top of my arm and the next ones on the inner arm:
These shades are Citrus, Ice Pop, Old Fashioned, Coral Punch, Sugar Coated and Sweet Tea. These are perfect for adding color to the look!
So now to the formula. The shades are gorgeous, but the formula isn’t the best. There is a lot of kickback in the pan, but luckily I don’t get a lot of fallout on my eye. It does take a few layers to get a pigmented look. And the shimmers work best when wet. I use a little Mac Fix+.
I am going to keep playing with this because I really love the shades and think it will be so gorgeous for spring and summer. Plus, the palette has a light citrus scent and I love that!
The Lemonade Craze Eyeshadow Palette is available now on Amazon at a suggested retail price of $13.99. It is listed at $10.99 right now, so if you want it, that’s a great price!
Do you have this palette or are you going to pick it up?
I have been debating about this palette, I am glad I seen a review of it, it really helps. Great post.
I’m glad, thanks for reading!
The colors are so pretty!
I agree!
Originally thought I would pick it up but most reviews say the same thing, that it swatches nice but that’s about it. The wear time is nil.
It stays on me, but fades a bit. I do use an eye primer, if that helps.
This looks like a great palette I really like the design of it.
