BUXOM Fall 2016 Eyeshadows
There are six new shades of BUXOM Eyeshadow ($12.00 for 0.05 oz.) now available. All six are metallic, and I wouldn’t describe them so much as duochromes as I would say they have stronger bases compared to the shimmers, so they have more dimension to them, but I didn’t get genuine shift in the color.

These look gorgeous.
Oh these shades are gorgeous! I wish they sold them as a reasonably priced pre made palette.
They basically do? If you buy any six and a palette, you get everything for $40.
!!!!!! I didn’t know that Christine, thank you! Definitely justifies getting this whole line for me because I need (NEED) all of these.
Do you know when these will be hitting the stores (Sephora/Ulta)? By the way…love your website! It’s my holy grail for comparisons! Thanks!
Sorry, I don’t receive official press info – just saw these online at Sephora!
wow i need to get this palette
Do you or anyone else know if these pans can be depotted out of the pan?
Sorry, I don’t depot any more, so I don’t know!
Kind of doubt it. But you could stick a metallic sticker, like the ones that come in a Z, and use them in a big freeform that way.
The plastic tray the individual pans are housed in it pretty thin and would be fine to slap on a metal dot to the back o them without taking up to much room. But I would suspect that it’s would be like depotting a MAC eyeshadow out of it’s tray.
Wow, Twilight Tryst looks dead on to Too Faced’s Storm Cloud that just came out!
I love all of these shades….. so much……
Crap.
Wow these are gorgeous! And I don’t think I have any dupes. Twilight Tryst is beautiful!!
Even though the combination has been done plenty, the duochrome on Twilight Tryst is tdf.
Yep, it is, Wendy!!! Reminds me of MUG Typhoon and TF Storm Cloud dead-on, but somehow better!
Hey Nance: I think they take on a creamy look which really adds to the richness of the colours…and It’s not wrong to have them all 🙂
Am I crazy or these are VERY similar to Pillow Talk, Typhoon, Ritzy, Venom, Secret Garden and Steampunk by MuG??
That’s what I thought too! I was like I own these all already because they are legit just Makeup Geek colors!
Some are similar, except these look much better. I had such troubles with those MUG shadows, they were terrible.
By all means I have no doubt these will be better quality (they are also $12 instead of $6). It just seems weird how similar all the shades are. I suppose when you are into makeup there’s nothing new anymore :/
Gorgeous palette.
OMG, love, love these colors!! Perfect for fall/winter. Quality looks awesome too. The teal blue/olive green/brown/gold shades remind me of the color scheme in Tom Ford Last Dance, which I couldn’t pull the trigger on since it was $80. Here, I can get 6 shades for $40, and I can pick and choose the colors. I’m all in !!! Will be my first Buxom palette. Do you know if these are LE?
Oh, just saw your other post. Yay, permanent!!! Thanks Buxom
Beautiful palette. I like the color combination, but I don’t know that I could get a complete look from it.
They’re sold individually – they just have it so if you purchase 6 eyeshadows + palette, it comes to $40. Otherwise, it would be $50.
OK; gotcha. Thanks.
These are all beautiful! I think I want Silver Screen and Rose Gold
Rrrrrrreally like the look of these.
**Need to pick my jaw up off the floor**
These look SO rich and pigmented! And dimensional, too. Oooh, I know I want Rose Gold, Twilight Tryst, Bronzed Bod, for certain. And *possibly* Silver Screen, too
I felt a need for Silverscreen, but they are all gorgeous.
Meh. Just a load of generic shades. What a rip off.
Generic?! Where have you seen these before! Please point me in the right direction, as I am super curious!
Wow, Look sooo good. These are really colours which make me think of fall.
Oh Def…these are super
I love Buxum eyeshadows. I have one palette I made myself and I can’t wait to get another one. Their metallic and shimmery shades are especially good.
Holy wow, those shades look beautiful!
At the same time, it’s hard for me to think “fall,” when I’m boiling my brain in a 99 degree heat index today LOL!
Haha, same! I can barely manage a thought for doing any glam makeup in the heat (which is the same where I live), much less my all-out fall favorites!
Oh, how lovely they look!
Wow! Such gorgeous and unique shades!
Gorgeous colors. This is killing me and will kill my wallet. Not bc they are expensive but bc there are so many shadows I love for fall.
these are actually really gorgeous
color me impressed
Just glorious colours – I really love them all.
I have several Buxom eye shadows and really love them. They are really pigmented, blend nicely and because of the way they slide in and out of the palette you can switch them up however you like similar to the Butter London shadows. These colors are so pretty. I have UD Lounge, MAC Blue-Brown and various other dupes for Twilight Tryst but the shade of the blue/teal is particular lovely. Think I will be getting all of these.
Beautiful shadows!
So nice!
I wish Buxom’s eyeshadows worked for me because these are amazing! ***sigh***
Reminds me why I love fall m/u. These DO look like MUG, but given recent MUG order, wonder if MUG looks like MUG. Certain the buxom would be better than current typhoon. There is very little gold reflect, and as you get out of direct sun, it’s majorly blue and loses the teal. Put it near green shirt, and, whoops, you have a very blue shadow, by contrast. Now, I know that happens. Mine has virtually no duochrome. Will be interesting to see the dupes, if C has time. These look saturated and blendable. Worth scoping out.
They’re not mattes!! YAY!!!
This is such a gorgeous palette.
Gorgeous, even sumptuous. I rarely use metallics — they age me — but occasionally I can swing a touch here or there. I’m especially liking Twilight Tryst, Bronzed Bod and Rose Gold. And these make me want to check out other Buxom shadows, which I have never really even looked at.
Wow, these are all gorgeous! I’m waiting for your review…. 🙂
This palette I MUST HAVE!! These colors are so so so pretty! Can’t wait for your review :).
Beautiful! I love my Buxom palette I made of mostly peaches, bronzes and golds. I will have to make another when these come out!
