Hi Everyone!
 
I am a big fan of Anastasia Beverly Hills (ABH) products and decided to try the shadows as I'd heard so many great things about them online! As you can see, I have filled up a large Z Palette with 27 shadows. I love warm, neutral and purple toned colours as you can see!

Overall, these shadows are excellent quality. They are finely milled and all apply well. As you see above, they come in different finishes similar to Makeup Geek and MAC shadows. The matte and titanium shades are particularly good. It's a pity that the shades are not more widely available here in the UK, the can be purchased from Sephora, however, shade selection is difficult as you have to totally buy off online swatches!
 
I am happy with my selection and would definitely purchase more. I particularly love how well they wear! Please start selling these in the UK Anastasia!  
 
MUST BUYS: Sienna, Peach Sorbet, Henna, Macaroon, Rosette, Intense Glaze
 
You can purchase the shadows from the Anastasia Beverly Hills or from Sephora for $12 each.
 
Do you have any shade recommendations? If so please share them with me in the comments section below!
