Sally Hansen Natural Beauty (Inspired by Carmindy) Mountain Eye Palette  $7.99  Available @ CVS.com

The jet-milled powders in our Instant Definition Eye Shadow Palette deliver instant, even, silky color and delicate dimension. And the coordinated color trio offers the perfect lid, contour and highlight shades, all in one compact. It is the easiest way to create a stylized, professional look. The shadows are super-fine and lightweight yet long-wearing. It's also crease- and fade-resistant, blendable, buildable and color true.

Makeup Addict has said it before and I will say it again -- Sally Hansen is one of my favorites and now with the line inspired by Carmindy -- I am even happier with Sally. There are eight different collections available.  Each contains the lid color, the highlight color and the contour color.  So you are all set when you have one of the kits in front of you.  It is applied so easily and as you know - you can apply as light as you want -- or as dark as you want.  I am using the Mountain Palette which is a very neutral selection.  The Lid color is Paupier (a sandy brown which is very beautiful on), the highlight color is Lumiere (a deamy cream) and the contour color is Galber (a dark brown).   I have found that they have great staying power -- lasted all day and no gathering in the creases.  I think it also minimized the skin crepey look.  It gave a very smooth look to the eyes.   I am guessing we all know the basics to applying these colors and you need to do so to your own personal taste.  Hey, during the day I am definitely less dramatic than when I go out for the evening -- then I kick it up a notch.  Carmindy has put this palettes together to make it very easy for us to get a professional look.  I LOVE this palette -- but, believe me, I am going to pick up a few more of these gorgeous palettes.  You can do a beautiful smokey eye - or just a lightly shaded eye for the day.  You will have trouble selecting just one paletter -- you just might pick up a few!!

I told you --  I was going to get some more paletts and I have to mention the Earth Eye Palette.  I did not think there could be a more together palette than the Mountain one but the Earth one is as gorgeous.  Then I want the Metallic, the Ocean and the Quartz.  I will probably end up with all of them  --  now as I look at the Amethyst one -- I think that might be my next top choice.  These shadows go on so amazingly easy and stay on.  Between Sally Hansen and Carmindy -- they know exactly what they are doing.  I follow the guidelines for using them most of the time but then I do my own thing once in a while.  I use the highlighter as the lid color, etc.  You are able to mix and match the different palettes also.  I have done that.  There are so many ways to enhance your eyes with these that I cannot count them.   Perhaps including the different palettes will give you a true idea of what is possible!!!!!
