Review: LORAC Unzipped Palette

Today I was able to try out my newly purchased eye shadow palette...The LORAC Unzipped palette.



This was my first time using a LORAC product. I have heard that their shadows are highly pigmented, so I started out gently in my application and built the colors up gradually. I primed my lids with the provided LORAC Behind the Scenes Eye Primer. I then put the shade Unbelievable from my eyelashes to crease and Undercover from the crease to eyebrows. I also dabbed Undercover in my tear duct area to brighten up my eyes. Next, I took Unconditional and applied it on my brow bone. I then mixed Unbridled and Untamed and applied the mixture to the outer one-third of my lid and brought it to my crease. Undercover really didn't act as much of a highlight as I would have liked, so I applied Unreal over it. I don't mind using a matte shade under my brows but this one was a bit of a dud. Overall, I would say the shadows are great quality, with very little fallout, and were true to color. I loved the primer! To finish this look I used Ulta's automatic eyeliner in Black/Brown and my Sephora Full Action mascara and Almay's Get Up & Grow mascara--both in Black. For my face I used Olay's CC Cream in Fair to Light, bareMinerals in Medium, Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzer all over, Revlon Photo Ready Bronzer as a contour, and e.l.f. blush in Merry Bery. I used L'Oreal's Infallible Lip Color in Hibiscus on my lips.

Here's the final look: 






I look forward to trying different looks with this palette! Thanks for reading!
