Review: theBalm Shady Lady Vol. 2 Eyeshadow Palette

Hello! 

Continuing with the Shady Lady eyeshadow palette reviews, here is Vol. 2! Like the previous eyeshadow palette, Shady Lady Vol. 1, the eyeshadow formula is velvety smooth and blends like a dream.  The only problem with this eyeshadow formula is that it is not as pigmented as it could be.  I find that it is very important to use an eyeshadow primer underneath to enhance the color.  Other than that, this is a very versatile palette with neutral and colorful shadows that I like to use when traveling.  



The packaging itself is made of cardboard and I find that it can be easily dented and damaged, especially during travel.  Luckily, it is very lightweight and easy to add to any makeup bag.  There is a large mirror that is useful for on the go application or touch ups.

Insane Jane (satin taupe with a hint of purple undertones) 
Bossy Bobbi (satin cornflower blue)

Just This Once Jamie (light satin purple with a hint of pink) 
Mischievous Marissa (shimmering light copper rose gold) 
Tempting Tara (satin pearl white) 
Devilish Danielle (shimmering gold beige) 


Overall, there is a wide variety of colors in this palette that make it a very go-to palette for me!
