Who says you can’t get quality products at an affordable price?  That is one of the reasons why I enjoy using BA Star cosmetics… because their price point is awesome and they offer a variety of products to create stunning and bold makeup looks, at half the cost of brands on the market today.  BA Star is a company that specializes in makeup for bold – eye catching looks or every day wear.  Many of their products offer such great pigmentation they are used as Performance Makeup for Dance, Cheer and more.

BA Star Tropical Eye Shadow Palette

For just $8.75 – BA Star’s Tropical Eye Shadow Palette comes packed with five bold shades to stop traffic and create a plethora of looks.  With the craze of bold summer shades hitting the market today and bright neon eye shadows all the rave, these shadows really have arrived at a perfect time.  I love the mix of shades available in the palette, which offer you the option to create a look filled with rainbow bright action or something a little more toned down with a pop color.   Used in combination with BA Star’s eye shadow glitter base, the colors pop and offer great longevity.

BA Star Tropical Eye Shadow Palette Swatches

BA Star offers great quality products for a fraction of the cost you see on the market today.  Their shadows are buttery and blend-able offering a punch of pigmentation and shimmer.  While all of the shadows in this palette are shimmery and can cause fall-out if not careful during application, it is well worth it because the colors are so vibrant and the color you see in the palette is definitely what you will get on application.  The shades are true to color and are as bold as you would expect.

If you are using the glitter glue from BA Star – this product will help achieve longer lasting shadows on the eyes as well as really bring out the true color of the shadows.  This sticky base is perfect for your BA Star Eye Shadows or Glitter as it grabs on to the product and holds it there.  While you can certainly use your eyeshadows over a primer or shadow base of your choice, I think that the Glitter Glue Base is a great addition for using your BA Star palette as well.

BA Star offers 6 five pan palettes in a complimentary range of shades for you to choose from and the Tropical Palette is definitely one you will want to pick up if you are interested in a daring and fun look.  If I had to critique the palette at all – it would be the applicator that didn’t quite excite me… but if in a pinch and bind and you needed something to apply your makeup with – it would work.

Tropical Paradise Makeup Look

I created this makeup look using all five colors from the BA Star Tropical Eye Shadow Palette as well as three other shadows from another brand.  The colors applied easily and packed a punch of color that lasted all day.  Check out my tutorial for this look here.  Overall I think this palette is awesome and I have been enjoying using it for my summer eye looks.  I definitely suggest it if you are on a budget and higher end neon type shades are out of your reach or if you just want to try out something fun and bold.  Check out bastar.com for a full selection of products and to get your own today.

    Be still my heart, there is a compact affordable bright shadow palette! 😀 Recently, I tried twice do a bright makeup look with two different cheap “bright” colored palettes, and was so aggravated that they would not build up the color wow factor. Awesome review!! And your look you created with it is just STUNNING!!!

    • Wet n Wild bright palettes are normally really nice, as are elf and BH or Coastal scents large palettes. But I am very amazed at the quality – as are other products from this brand, some of my favorites 😉 I think you would enjoy it and the colors would look wonderful on your eyes… especially the purple

      • It is so weird. Maybe I got a dude, but the wnw bright I used didnt really work for me. Coastal scents is great 🙂 Still need to give this one a try. Thank you, and I bet the purple will be fun too 😀
