Ulta Eyeshadow Review + Swatch of Au Naturel, Milk Chocolate, and Taken

Ulta Eyeshadow Review + Swatch

Au Naturel--Milk Chocolate--Taken
eyeshadow--demi eyeshadow--baked eyeshadow
matte--matte-shimmer

At Ulta typically 7-9 dollars but I got them at a 3 for $9 sale.

I was looking for a base shadow to cover up the vessels on my lids. I couldn't find bone, but luckily au naturel was still available.

Milk chocolate was better than I expected it to be. Might be a holy grail. I had never used a shadow in my crease because all the other colors I've had in palettes just didn't look right. This is perfect for my crease and I'll actually get to use my crease brush.

I also wanted a grey shadow as it is very versatile and might be useful in halloween makeup. I was actually hoping for the matte grey demi shadow but the store ran out. This was not as shimmery or glittery as the other single shadows.



Au Naturel is a matte pink and beige nude. Good as a base color or highlight.
Milk chocolate is a matte brown. Fantastic as a contour or crease.

Taken has a marbled pink shimmer and a grey shimmer. I'm probably going to run out of the grey faster.

Swatches right to left w/o primer: Au Naturel, Milk Chocolate, Taken


Au Naturel is barely visible. It its the pinker part of my skin.
Milk Chocolate: suitable for many skin types
Taken: Eh. 

I will definitely repurchase Au Naturel and Milk Chocolate when I run out or when I see another sale. Hopefully I can snag some other colors before they run out.

Note: I saw the color yogurt on the website listed as matter but it looked like a shimmer or glitter in store.
