Alima Pure Let Them Eat Cake Eyeshadows Review:
I loved the formula of these shadows. They have great pigmentation, go on smooth, and blend easily.

The shades in the Let Them Eat Cake set are really pretty, wearable shades. They do remind me of the pastry they are named after, and the shimmer in them is so pretty! Much prettier in person than in photos.

I'd recommend this set because they are great shades for everyone to own!
