Question of the Week: What is your Holy Grail drugstore eyeshadow palette?

Answer: I don’t currently have a HG drugstore eye shadow palette, shocker! But a strong contender is the limited edition Maybelline City Mini Palette X Shayla ($9.99). I was loving the brand’s City Mini Palettes anyway, they’re a great value and really beautiful, modern color combos. But I’ve flipped for this one; a metallic dream with gold, copper and plum designed with LA beauty blogger and makeup artist @MakeupShayla.

I mean, RIGHT?

Not that I’ve swatched it yet. I can’t bring myself to disturb the pretty. I only have stared at it lovingly so far. I’m weird like that.

Here’s what was up with the League last week…

EauMG – I went to Budapest and here’s all the beauty products I bought. I need to go on a No-Buy now…

fanserviced-b – I tried Glossier’s newish Wowder Duo and was impressed by the packaging, but wish it didn’t give my skin a red cast or cystic acne spots.

Gouldylox – With so many new launches on the horizon, do you really need the new #IWantKandee collection from Too Faced?

My Beauty Bunny – says if you’re going to buy toothpaste (and hopefully you do…), why not buy cruelty free toothpaste that WHITENS?

Phyrra – I share my favorite Daytime Makeup Tutorial. It makes blue and green eyes pop!

Prime Beauty – The newest innovation in skincare is probiotics, but do they actually work? LaFlore Skincare is a brand new skincare brand that harnesses the power of probiotics in their simple 3-Step Skincare System; read about my results!

we heart this – How much would you love us if we told you there was a skincare product that you could add to your existing favorites to actively brighten your skin? How about if we added that it’s only about 30 bucks? Meet YBF Brightening Concentrate…

Beauty Junkies Unite – We all love instant gratification, especially when it comes to beauty products! That’s why Amber spent over a month testing facial masks to find six that deliver immediate results, for every skin concern. Check them out here.

Blushing Noir – Brooke tried out some products from Fenty Beauty by Rihanna and is here to let you know which products worked the best on her SUPER OILY skin and which ones were a total fail.

  1. I don’t have a HG drugstore eyeshadow palette…because I’m an eyeshadow snob…but that little palette is super pretty! While it wouldn’t work with my coloring as a shadow color, I want a lipstick the same shade as that plum shadow. Like, EXACTLY the same shade. How pretty would that be?
