Manly Eye Shadow

An online friend told me about the Manly Eye Shadow 120 color palette, which is sold exclusively on eBay. For $11-$20 and another $10-$12 for shipping, you get 120 individual colors packed into an easy to open, use and transport palette. Also included are professional makeup brushes.

I ordered this palette several weeks ago, and have had the opportunity to try out several colors. I love them! The colors are true and vibrant, and it only takes a small amount of eye shadow to have eyes that really pop. Better still, the colors last all day — no reapplying is necessary!

    I love all the colours of palettes like those but I would never use even half of them.

    I just won a bid for one on eBay but I’m still weary that they will A)be broken (so I’ll have to send it back and wait some more), and B) not show up on my medium skin tone (or smear all over my oily eyelids.) lol I’m so negative!!

    Caroline, the palettes are set down and in the black case, and they’re pressed and firm, not loose.

    I would like to buy this palette too. But before i wanted to find out about the quality of this shadows. Please can you tell me? How are they blend? How strong a color and does they have the same color when you apply them on the skin, or a bit lighter/darken?

    Hi, I received then last week, and they are really good, but I got one question, are they hypoallergenic?

    hi :) i really wanted this but i too have never used ebay before so my friend who uses ebay said if i gave her the money she would put it in her account then when you got it off ebay she would just use paypal which takes money staight from someones account. problem solved however my mate just got them and was shocked to see they were mstly broken :( they are also very very high pigmented so thy stain your skin if you have light skin so use a base coat e.g. barry m sparkling lip and eye colour …amazing :)

    I am really interested in this kit but I wonder just how safe this make-up really is. Is there lead, murcury, or unsafe levels of other compounds? It is not made or sold in the USA (only on the internet) so who knows? How do we find out this kind of information?

    I’ve been looking at this for quite a while, and I express the concern that pretty much eeveryone else is voicing about it. Will it be broken? >.< that would be terrible, because I really want one!

    I just purchased this online after looking around at reviews on youtube and elsewhere. I am only slightly concerned about some being broken, but I found a video on youtube that shows you how to fix it! This one is really in depth:

    I bought all of my Mary Kay products online from Ebay. Don’t worry Look at how many stars they have and scroll down and read their full ad, you’ll do fine.

    well i have a tip for you, if ann when ever eyeshadow is broken all you do is spray a little bit of clone, or purfume and kind of squish it down it works just as well and looks fine (:

    I bought it from amaebeauty.com and it came perfectly. I love all of the colors! So many! They charge about 4 dollars more, but it came in 3 days!
