I recently found myself on Beauty Bay (like most nights) and decided to start creating my own palette of Makeup Geek eyeshadows as I've heard so much about them and how good they are, I had to order some! Each individual eyeshadow pan is £4.95 which is an absolute steal considering the formula has been compared to MAC eyeshadows, which retail at about £10-£12 and up.
The colour pay off is excellent and they blend like a dream, they also have a huge range of colours! I chose mostly warm tones as I favour more of a warm toned eye shadow look. As I'd never tried them before, I took to YouTube and did a little research on swatches etc. These 2 videos from Kathleen Lights and Jaclyn Hill helped me choose - Cocoa Bear, Cosmopolitan, Peach Smoothie and Burlesque. Rest assured I'll be referring back to thee videos when I want to purchase more!
I chose the Small Z Palette which fits up to 9 shadows. I easily could've gotten carried away and opted for a bigger size but I thought this would be good for travelling and I can always purchase a bigger one at a later date if I run out of space!

With these I also bought 2 new Morphe brushes! (Again, referring to this video!) I got the M501 Pro Pointed Blender Brush to use for highlight and the E18 Round Crease Brush for blending out shadow on the lower lash line. Again, great quality and price! I feel like I'll be ordering more very soon, not that I need any more brushes...
