On the eyes I don't think that the dryness is a problem, but it is definitely a different formula that I haven't seen many other companies use so it could be a hard transition if you're used to creamier shadows. So Fetch, a bright orange, is not very pigmented while Wednesday is easy to build up to full opacity. They all feel dry when you swatch them, but they vary in pigmentation. Some are very creamy, like Regina George and Mouse, Duh, and others feel very dry and gritty, like October 3rd. I've found that each shadow has a little bit of a different formula, especially the shimmers. I prefer to build up my shadows because I think it offers more control, but it is all up to personal preference! I don't think that they are difficult to blend but you may have to build them up after blending them out. The mattes are pigmented, but very firmly pressed and dry. Regina George, a gorgeous light rose gold, is a stunning metallic color that has little fallout and is really reflective all over the lid. (You can check out my Wizardry and Witchcraft palette review here)Īs for the shadow quality, I think that they are fairly good but not the best that I've tried. Just below is the mirror is the quote "You're Like, Really Pretty!" which is so cute! It arrived after about a week in a pink velvet bag and it came with a pink bookmark, which comes with all Storybook palettes. The palette closes with a strong metallic clasp, the shadows are standard size, and the palette includes a mirror. It feels good quality and I love how many references to the movie they made. If you are more creative or like wearing brighter colors than me, this may be a better option for you!Īs for the packaging, it is absolutely stunning. There is only one look that I feel confident creating with this palette where I don't need to reach for any other shadows. The row of warm pink shades make sense, but the blues? That random green? I was determined to get this palette no matter what was inside, but I would have preferred some more cohesive shades that feel more Mean Girls-esque, like maybe some pastels or purples instead of the blues, green, and orange. I will admit that I'm not the biggest fan of the colors in this palette. But is it just a good collector's item, or are the shadows good-quality, too? The Burn Book shaped, quote-filled palette is fit for the ultimate Mean Girls fan. Now that you know that crucial information, you can see why I was immediately drawn to the Storybook Cosmetics x Mean Girls collaboration. I can identify a Mean Girls quote from a mile away, and trust me, you don't want to watch the movie with me. If you didn't know, I am an avid Mean Girls fan. The limit (of how beautiful this palette is) does not exist. Get in losers, we're testing out Mean Girls makeup. Makeup that is based on my all-time favorite movie, Mean Girls, is like, so fetch.
