How pretty are these 17 Spring Collection vintage-inspired eye shadow palettes? I briefly glanced at them on a couple of blogs and for some reason thought they were No7, but I spotted them in Boots yesterday for £5.49 each. 17 is running a 3 for 2 offer so I picked up a gorgeous Mirror Shine lipstick for free!
I'm already in love with Bee Hive Mirror Shine lipstick and knew I wanted to use the 3 for 2 offer to expand my collection. I chose the pillar box red 'Hollywood'. It's such a true, gorgeous red and feels so daring when you twist it out of the tube, however the effect is more of a moisturising lip stain and it will be taking over from my all-time-favourite red lippy, MAC Viva Glam Cyndi at only £4.59.
Have you got any 17 recommendations for me? What's your favourite product from the range?
i love it!
ReplyDeleteim going to look for some :)

O wow, the neutrals palette is stunning! And what's more... it is actually in my price range! What a bummer they don't sell it over here :-( I'm crushed.
ReplyDeleteLove the neutrals palette. I've used 17 eyeshadows for years and am always disappointment when I try other drugstore brands. x
ReplyDeleteThe pink palette is gorgeous, it looks nothing special but on skin its beautiful.

They don't sell those vintage palettes in Boots stores in Thailand. They look so beautiful. I usually like 17 products..because they are cheap and good qualities as well. I love their mineral compact, Shine-free liquid foundation and single black eyeshadow.
ReplyDelete* disappointed, that should be!
ReplyDelete@Flora - ooh thanks for the rec, I've wanted to try their foundations for a while, I hope I can find a light enough shade!
ReplyDeleteWow the Metallic Nudes palette looks gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteAwww. so adorable.
ReplyDeleteSwatches look amazing, I particularly like the lipstick.
i love the nudes xoxo
ReplyDeleteAwh these have sold out in all my local store, desperate to get my mitts on them, I defiantly recommend there blush and glow and there trio 'sparkly eyes' eyeshadows, adorable xxx
ReplyDeleteThey've sold out in all the Boots stores I visited and that's 5 so far!
ReplyDeleteI rather like the look of the neutral palette because of the pretty packaging, but I've got to the stage that I'm not desperate for new makeup collections, which is a good thing! Otherwise I'd be hunting Boots and ebay up and down trying to get my mitts on one.
The same goes for the Grace lipstick too! I've been trying to track one down with my new £5 voucher clutched in my hands, but it seems they're also gone.
Ah well - at least I got my Mac Pink Power and my priorities straight :D

I have never tried 17 cosmetics, but the packaging alone has sold it to me.. the colours are lovely. All the colours you would need for a holiday and in a small compact :) perfect x
ReplyDeleteThese palettes are crazy pretty!
