After buying multiple eye-shadow palletes and singles i have realised you don't have to spend loads of money to find a good quality product, yes alot of higher end brands do sell alot of better quality products but that doesn't mean all of them and that also doesn't mean you cant find a very good product or better one in high street stores.

I picked up a few Seventeen single eye-shadows (mainly because i liked the colours) expecting them to be just 'ok' but i can honestly say they are now the main colours that i use.

They don't have many colours in the collection but the ones they do have are lovely shimmery colours, they are so pigmented and last a very long time on the eye.

For a great price of £3.49 i decided to pick up a couple and then after falling in love i went back to buy three more. The shades are very pigmented and bold with some lovely natural shades too.

The colours i picked up are:
Statuesque - a shimmery rose silver shade
Funfair- Baby pink with iridescent shimmers of gold
Rose Quartz- A deep mauve shade (shimmer)
Regal- A deep royal blue with glitter chunks running through
Walnut pearl (my favourite)- Bronze/orange shade that glistens on the lid when the light hits it.

Regal and walnut Pearl

They have a really nice texture, the lighter shades have a very smooth texture, where as the brighter colours are a bit more powdery, they are all very easy to blend and do not crease.


If you are starting out with makeup or if you want to find some cheaper eye shadows for an alternative to higher end brands, i would really recommend Seventeen as a brand specially for their single eye shadows.

Whats your favourite high street eye shadow?
