I know how much we all love a bargain, so I thought I would share the latest cheap but fabulous product I have stumbled upon recently. For those of you who live in Australia, you may have seen the BYS brand stocked in K-Mart. All of their products are ridiculously cheap, and until now I have steered away from them.
My decision to try BYS came after I saw a friend wearing a gorgeous gold shade of eyeshadow, and of course, I was dying to know where it was from! She informed me that it was from an 8 shadow eyeshadow palette from BYS. Ta-dah! My entire opinion changed in a second, it's funny how these things work!
So, I ran off to the store and purchased the BYS Metallics Palette in Browns, which is an 8 shadow palette comprised of gorgeous metallic gold and brown shades. ONLY $5 wonderful people! It also comes in a purples and a smoky palette.
What I Love
- Beautiful, on trend colours
- Great pigmentation for the cost
- Just the right amount of shimmer
- Sleek packaging, easy to store and transport
What I Am Not So Crazy About
- Has a talc smell about it (it may just be me as I have a highly sensitive sense of smell)
- Slightly messy - need to make sure that you tap the excess off the brush before application
- It isn't stocked everywhere and can be a bit of a pain to find (especially for those of us who live in the middle of the city & a while away from K-Mart)
