Makeup Review: Smashbox Beauty A-GO-GO Color Palette

This is the very first product I bought from Smashbox.  In the palette you have 8 eye shadow colors, 2 highlighters, 4 lip glosses and 2 travel brushes (1 lip brush and 1 eye shadow brush)

Packaging:
1. comes in a small black book and has a divider that separates  the eye shadows from the highlighters and glosses
2. it also came in a leather zipper pouch which can be used for something else other than makeup

Texture:
1. the eye shadows are very silky and pigmented; not chalky but when you pack a lot of it onto your brush you might have some fall out so be sure to tap off the excess before application
2. easy to blend
3. cream highlighters are pigmented as well; not too shimmery
4. the glosses are on the soft side (consistency)



Colors:
1. 1 highlighter is in shimmery pink and the other 1 is beige champagne
2. for the lip glosses you have berry/wine named Tres Chic, Gold named Go Lightly, beige named Glamorous and nude named Splendid which can also be used as a lip color
3. for the eye shadows you have gunmetal (grey), black, dusty pink, violet, cream, shimmery taupe, gold and shimmery brown

Brushes:
1. The Lip Brush is small (fine) and not the type where the brush hair is too thick that it manages to get too much color on your lips
2. The Eye Shadow brush is dense and resembles the MAC 239; soft hair too

Although this palette is no longer available I wanted to share with you why I love Smashbox.

Thanks for reading and see you next time!
