Those shadows are stunning!! Do I need any more eyeshadow to add to my huge collection?! Nope! Did i just buy every shade?! Absolutely!! (Other than the gold one as I’m not a fan of yellow gold on me!) Obviously used your link as it’s an affiliate link! Still managed to spend over £100 on the site, as you do! But I did need a couple of skincare products anyway and some more setting spray and the stay all night as well as their holy hydration day cream is literally my holy grail! I used to be a high end skincare junky! But their day cream is just fantastic! I love a few high end products still don’t get me wrong, but I always go back to my holy hydration from ELF! ☺️

Hey Carmel! I was hoping the ELF would have the wet shine like the Urban Decay shadows but I might still pick a couple up. I like Pop of Pink and Champagne Showers.
