Hello everyone,
So for those that don't know last month I won Sedona Lace's Twitter contest and the prize was there eyeshadows called "THE BABE COLLECTION." So first I want to say Thank you so much to Sedona Lace for such a great prize and secondly how incredibly quick the parcel arrived considering it came from Florida to Toronto.
I am very excited to be sharing these products with you. This is my first experience with Sedona Lace and I look forward to purchasing some brushes and other products from them soon.
OMG! is all I can say these eyeshadows are amazing. All of shadows in this collection have a very intense shimmer finish. The colours are all beyond beautiful and there are some other perks to these quads as well one being that they are very portable each compact is about 4"x4" and under a inch thick. So the beauty of these quads is they have a quick change feature which means if you want to switch out individual colours you can pop it out and add another in its place which I think is great for refilling as well. Fingers crossed hoping that Sedona Lace will bring out even more colours in the future which will be able to purchase separately. This is extremely well thought out packaging and makes for very easy travel in smaller makeup bags. My only small complaint is the lip which you put your finger on to open the compact is a bit tidies and for those that do their nails you may find it chips your polish trying to pop the compact open.
The packaging over all is pretty standard, but at the end of the day your not wearing the packaging on your eye its the makeup inside that counts most.
So the first quad is called DANIELA and she is a true girlie girl offering up a garden of beautiful colours which are Carnation, Pink rose, Orchid and Violet

Following behind is DANA the perfect girl for Spring with colors reminiscent of outdoor elements like flowers, the sky and grass. The colours in this palette are Snow White, Blush, Green Mist and Cadet Blue. One of the things I noticed well doing the swatches is that the Snow White flashes an iridescent purple/pink in the light which is super cool.

A couple of things I would like to point out with this palette. The green looks a lot darker in the compact but when applied is more minty and reminds me of Pistachio pudding, but it did photograph darker as well. Also the Blush surprisingly is much more a darker pink but once applied is a very soft sheer pink on the skin and the Snow White looks like it should be the colour Blush but its not it is the one on the right end. That's the flash I was speaking about.
Moving on with ADRIENNE this girl is smokin and dramatic with serious colours like Dark Gold, Steel Grey, Pewter and Triple Black. If your a fan of smoked out eyes your going to love and want this palette it will make your eyes a whole load more sultry. I actually really love the black in this palette because it almost has a slight shine to it like leather. This will be a lot of fun to work with.

Next up is SUZANNE which I am wearing on my eyes today this girl is a Golden Goddess for sure with rich tones like Nutmeg, Cinnamon, Ginger and Brown Sugar its like a warm latte for the eyes. This palette makes me think of Evening sunsets, golden sands and sexy tequila nights. Then you can also play these colours come fall as well like a brisk autumn walk with golden leaves on the trees and warm coffee in hand mmmmm.

I really love this palette and find its good for everyday use. I find the colours so intense and with a good primer the staying power is excellent. I have been wearing it for over five hours and it hasn't budged. I see a tiny bit of creasing but its really nothing noticeable unless your really looking for it. The biggest perk to these shadows is that I found there was "ZERO" fall out which in it self is a feat as we all know most shadows do. SIMPLY SPLENDID
Lastly is BRIDGETTE this again is a very wearable daily palette with shades also suitable for fun in the sun like Sunstone, Sandy Quartz, Copper and Amethyst. The copper in this palette is one of the most saturated colours I have ever seen and I have seen many shadows in my years of makeup. I also like the fact that the amethyst plays off the copper nicely and sunstone and sandy quartz will marry well with them to top off your look. The colour sandy quartz reminds me a lot of L'Oreal's infallible in Goldmine just a tad lighter.

So there you have it everyone a detailed look at the BABE COLLECTION by Sedona Lace.
Each compact has a generous sized glass mirror, there are no eyeshadow applicators included which doesn't matter to me as I never use them anyway unless its an emergency. Also here is the picture showing how each pan can be popped out to interchange with others *SMART*
In closing I love all these shadows and will truly enjoy using them probably daily. I recommend them big time if your a person looking for great value and a whole lot of colour payoff. The entire set of 5 palette's are $49.95 or if you are only interested in a particular one they sell for $12.95 each.
I can't give you the amounts (i.e g/oz) of each shadow as it isn't present on the compacts or on the boxes they came in, however they are a very generous size from the looks of it.
Check out Sedona Lace for a great selection of quality brushes and clearly their eyeshadow's too. For a look at their entire line go to
You can also follow me on Instagram and Twitter and each day I do a new Eye's and Nail's of the day. So if you want to see the Suzanne palette in action for today head on over and have a look at my picture on Instagram now.
As always everyone have a wonderful day and
STAY BEAUTIFUL
