Way to expensive

I absolutely love TF but I *refuse* to spend $60 one an eyeshadow! It better apply, blend, be long lasting and have the ability to remove itself lol

You can find much more affordable makeup that is just as good or better than these high end shadows. Wet n Wild is a great brand. Very pigmented and cruelty free!
