For this year’s summer, MakeupGeek came up with some new regular eyeshadow singles Baby Face, Desert Sands, Roulette, Shore Thing, Poppy, Rapunzel & High Tea. I’ve already done a review & swatch post for Baby Face & Desert Sands, and today I picked another one of my favourite combos from her new shades.

Rapunzel: Is a satin finish champagne yellow that can be used to highlight brow bones, eye lid or inner corners.

High Tea: Is a matte finish greenish brown with grey undertone. This is great to smoke out the outer corners of your eyes or use as a crease shade.

Both shades have: Good pigmentation and apply smooth and evenly. They can be stored in Z palettes, which are also available at MakeupGeek website.

Price: US$ 5.99 each

Shipping and Delivery: MakeupGeek delivers worldwide (including Sri Lanka) and delivery time differs from 1.5 weeks to 5 weeks.

Here’s a look I created using both shadows:

1. Prime your eyelids (I used ELF Eye Primer)
2. Apply High Tea on the crease using a small soft crease brush
3. Using a flat stiff eyeshadow brush, apply Rapunzel on the lid
4. With a blending brush, blend Rapunzel & High Tea softly
5. Apply Peach Smoothie (also from MakeupGeek) as a transition shade from High Tea to brow bone. This will smooth out the crease making it soft and wearable for day time.
6. Highlight inner corners of your eyes with Charmed (also from MakeupGeek)

These shadows are cruelty free as well as Talc & Paraben free…

Do I recommend them? As much as I love them, I don’t believe they are must-haves. I love High Tea because it’s an uncommon colour with good pigmentation, which can be rare when it comes to matte finishes. I believe that Rapunzel can be commonly found in many pre-made palettes that you might already own. But, if you’re a beginner and you want create your own Z Palette, you can go ahead and buy both.

I’ll see you soon with more beauty product reviews!
