Artdeco eyeshadows

Artdeco is a german cosmetics brand. they have a nice "Système Mosaique" where you can put different  pans of eyeshadows, blusher, concealer, brow powders etc. into a magnetic palette and have your complete look with you everytime. their price range is of higher drugstore prices.
e.g., the eyeshadows are 1g each and cost 4.80€.
Artdeco does different finishes of these eyeshadows: Pearl, Duochrome, Matte, Glamour (sparkly) and a total of 123 different colours, regularly limited edition colours are released.
they have different sizes of magnetic palettes, the smallest one fits 2 eyeshadows, the biggest one about 10 eyeshadows (blusher and concealer pans are bigger, though) and costs around 14€.

i have some to show and swatch for you:

this is the biggest palette they do, the Magnum Palette

very neutral colours, i can't have enough taupes ;)

first row, from left to right:
  • #05 - a light sandy taupe with golden sheen
  • #205 - a darker brown taupe
  • #218 - a medium silver taupe
  • #17 - a dark brown with pink shimmer (comparable to MAC Smut)

second row, from left to right:
  • #16 - a light bronzey brown
  • #208 - a medium brown with apparent pink+gold sparkles
  • #14 - a reddish chocolate brown with silver shimmer
  • #96 - a browny plum with pink shimmer
  • #290 - a dark purple with pink shimmer


all shadows i own are shimmery. their texture is soft, they are well pigmented and will last all day with a good base underneath. they blend ok, but blend in together a little muddy (still, i'm a friend of muddy colours :P)
as you can see, i still have 1 slot left, i might fill it with a brighter blue or something as colourful, soon :)
i have the palette almost 10 years now, it's still in a super condition, but all the old shadows that housed in there have shattered some time ago, and i swear i never was extremely brutal with them! they just aren't travel(or motion)-friendly.
