Majorlica Majorca swatches

I’m currently lemming MM stuff… sigh… so made a trip to central today (yay! no rain!! finally!) to post a total of 11 envelopes (watch out for pink envelopes ladies!) and to do some swatches at Watson’s.

*all swatches are on bare skin… no base used*

first up was cream shadows…

my conclusion after the swatches… as much as I like them – texture, consistency, colors – they are too similar to my NYX JEPs to buy. Except for the green – which to me is more cyan - (GR732)… that I’m really liking… sigh… I’m sooooo hopeless.

impressions :

GR750 – the dark blue is really a dark dark dark navy blue… in the pics, it looks black… I like the darker green in this palette but not enuh to buy it.

BR751 – love the lavender/purpley colors in this palette… very tempted to get this. But then I’m a sucker for purple so…

the swatches are switched around – ie PK740 first then BR742

impressions :

PK740 – I really like the blue shade at the bottom right. It has slight purple undertones and looks so pretty and iridescent. tempting tempting…

BR742 – not my type of shades… enuff said

btw, the two darkest colors, the PK740 is more chocolatey brown than the BR742 which is more of a dark grey shade.

conclusion… I still don’t know what I wanna buy… can I get them all?? sponsorship anyone? LOL!
