Saucebox + Batalash Eye Shadow Palette

I've recently been on an eyeshadow kick when it comes to buying cosmetics. This Saucebox + Batalash Palette is one of my favorites so far, so I thought I'd feature it on the little old blog.
Saucebox is a company that is known for their humongous eyeshadow pans, creamy formula, and their customize-able palettes. Batalash is a YouTube group of gals-- Samantha, Angela, and Dominique; their styles range from edgy and colorful, to soft and neutral. This palette definitely reflects their unique style. You can find out more about Batalash here on their blog and here on their YouTube channel.

The entire top row of shadows are matte finishes while the bottom row is all shimmer/sheen/metallic. The mattes are a tad on the chalky side for me while swatching, but when applying on the eyes, they blend beautifully and easily, even with a tackier primer. I captured some of the chalkiness in the shade Vanilla, pictured below. As you can see, the shimmer shades swatched very smooth and silky, with true pigmentation. That's one thing I noticed with Saucebox shadows, is that what you see in the pan is completely true to what translates on the eye.

L-R: Top Row: Vanilla, Winter Brown, Cinnamon, Lace Noir
Bottom Row: Enigma, Electro, Popper, Nova

Saucebox shadows in comparison to LORAC Pro 2 shadows

Maybe this wasn't the most hygienic thing to do, but I really wanted to show you the difference in size with these shadows. If you're familiar with the LORAC Pro palettes, you know their shadows are definitely tiny. The Saucebox + Batalash Palette retails for $60 with shipping of $6 in the US. With each pan containing 4g of product, with a total of 32g in the palette, these shadows only go for $7.50 a pan (not including shipping cost) which is an excellent deal. 

Saucebox has a few more palettes and single shades available, so with all their palettes being magnetized, traveling with a lighter load of shadows is easy. You can shop their store here.

Would you ever considering purchasing products from companies that collaborate with YouTube personalities? Have you already?
As always, thanks for reading. Please leave me a comment so I know someone is reading! Haha :)
