Eye shadow swatches and palettes are pretty to look at but I tend not to use shadows very often. I almost never need or use the crazier colors, and I don’t think I’ve ever used up an entire color. However, I often receive samples in my monthly subscription boxes from Birchbox, Glossybox, Allure Beauty Box, BeautyFix, Target, and others. I also get them as gifts with purchase from time to time (usually after getting a head’s up from my favorite GWP blogger, Kathy, at usgwp.com).

I noticed recently that I had lots of unopened eye shadow samples in my collection, so I thought I’d do some quick swatching for you all! Here goes:
