Yves Saint Laurent 5 Colour Harmony for Eyes 13 Spring 2012 Review and Swatches

Yves Saint Laurent's 5 Colour Harmony for Eyes in 13

I really splurged on this one! When i saw Yves Saint Laurent's 5 Colour Harmony for Eyes in 13 i fell head over heels. I love bright colored makeup, expecialy when it comes from a brand as classy and as glamourous as YS. This palette was released for the Spring 2012 collection and how suiting is it! These colors are very Spring, while it is almost fall, i like what i like. Season regardless, i love this!

I love the packaging on this palette. Reflective gold with the simple logo in the middle. Takes fingerprints badly but that is my only complaint. The internal mirror is huge so you can use it to really see what you are doing if you don't have a hand mirror available.

These candy colors are so shimmery (they somewhat remind me of Lime Crime's Palette D'Antoinette, see review here!) They aren't as opaque as i would have liked them to be but they do work well. This appears as a shimmer over dry skin and show up more pigmented over primer.These colors apply smooth, blend well together and with other products.These last all day over primer and there is no fallout. You can apply these with the sponge applicator included or with brushes. The range of colors is decent enough to make an array of different eye looks such as yellow on lid purple in crease or pink on lid, blue on crease, and purple on v. This palette makes it very easy to be creative.
