GOSH 9 Shades to enjoy in New York Review



Hello Guys!

I have found, quite possibly, my absolute favourite budget friendly shadow palette. I picked up this little beaut in Superdrug a few weeks ago as the colours just appealed to me, I have green eyes so love to wear a nice purple on the lid. I was also looking to add some nice greys to my collection and this palette has a great one.

I didn't expect to be as obsessed with this as I have become and I really didn't expect the quality to be so good! The texture of these shadows is so buttery and they blend like a dream. The set has mostly satin finish but a couple of shimmers up top and a good medium toned brown for sculpting out those sockets. My favourite shade has got to be the bright pinky purple second down on the right, it really packs a punch but can be sheared out too and is such a beautiful colour on green eyes but I imagine will be lovely on all eye colours really.

I've swatched below from top left, left to right on all levels.



The palette is priced at GBP 9.99 and there are three different colour collections in the range.

To Play With InVegas is a bright vivid colour collection, fab for the youngsters or for a festival but not for someone in their 30s who doesn't really like to step too far out of her comfort zone...blue mascara is about as whacky as I will go. But those colours are seriously bright and I'd be interested to know how that translates on the skin.


To Have Fun With In LA is somewhere between the two, its got a couple of neutrals, some greens, purples and some vivids. I'm particularly obsessed with that peacock green, I'm yet to decide whether I'll be picking this one up.


I hope the texture is consistent throughout the range as these are such a great buy for the money if so. the packaging is sleek and includes a large mirror. There is no lip between the colour pans so you do get a little fallout and contamination but nothing a little blow won't sort out. If you haven't come across these in Superdrug yet I'd strongly recommend checking them out and I hope GOSH bring out some more shades. I'll certainly be checking out the rest of the GOSH shadows.

Thanks for reading!
