For a brand that’s best known for its nail polish, the Models Own Chrome Eyeshadow Palette is certainly unexpected. I think it’s a sign of things to come for a brand so watch that space! The palette is an off-shoot of the Colour Chrome nail polishes and if I’m honest, I was rather expecting a tray of oily shadows. However, while, yes, to a certain degree they are on the oily side for cremes, their adherence is very good. Like, they don’t feel as wet as they look if you see what I mean!
Even the swatches taken in shadow show just how reflective these are – they’re reminding me of MAC for some reason. The only colour that’s just not working for me is the first one, which is a high shine white – it’s a little erratic in the application, but otherwise the formulas go on very smoothly.
Taken in sunshine, they spring to life! It’s a £5.99 palette that’s well worth having some fun with – I’d advise using an eye primer to help with the last but otherwise, I think it’s gorgeous.
Models Own Chrome Eyeshadow Palette is available from 1st July in Superdrug and on the Modelsown site. There are a couple of palettes from Modelsown listed on Superdrug already – nudes – so if you’re interested in exploring more of their makeup offerings, they’re HERE.
