Purminerals is really growing on me as a brand having already tried a foundation and now the Soul Mattes Eyeshadow. I love the packaging. This kit comes in cardboard outer packaging with the colours on the bottom which opens up to a metal tin with very secure closure which I love. If you do happen to bin/lose the cardboard package (as it’s not needed) there is a sticker on the bottom so you still know the names of each shade. There are 8 matte shades in this palette but just before swatching I noticed there is a very tiny bit of shimmer to Adore but it’s still very matte on the lid.
One thing I have to say though is the sticker on the tin looks far darker to that of the cardboard packaging but the colours are closer to the cardboard. That said they still don’t quite match their image – they look a bit lighter and almost like they are not as well pigmented as the picture makes them look. Another thing you get with this kit is a thick eyeshadow brush...

This palette of neutrals comes in a really nice tin (not cardboard like Benefit) which at first you do not appreciate as it is packed inside a cardboard wrapper that has a picture of the eyeshadows on the back. This picture makes the eye shadows look very pink based but actually on opening the tones are deeper and more earthy eg. the second shadow from the right is actually a lovely pale taupe colour but looks pink in the photo on the back of the box and almost white on the amazon picture. I think colour reproduction is still a real problem with buying online (if not seen elsewhere in "the flesh") and also with photographs. As with most palettes I shan't use all the shadows, I have been using the lighter more neutral ones, as I am pale skinned but I am sure the deeper tones would look lovely on those with a more olive or darker tone of skin or those who are younger and more vibrant than me.
The eyeshadows themselves are great, the pigments are long lasting and...

A nice product and nice brush, nicely packaged!
I am a pale skinned, strawberryish blonde and the colour selection suits my complexion nicely.
The colours lasted for me all day at work and just an over-application of the darker shade for a night out worked very nicely, meaning I could go straight from work to a night out with a quick makeup fix en route!
The brush is really good quality and seems to be lasting very well with no noticeable shed.
I like the tin which means it transports well in my overnight bag without fear of the shadows being crushed if I overpack (a regular occurrence for me!).
However, by far my favourite thing about this makeup is that they are against animal testing and I am finding it harder these days to find alternatives to the company I used to use which sold out big time!
From their website:
"Pur Minerals cosmetics and skincare products are completely free of animal testing (and...
