Fuschia: An Irish Makeup Company - Eyeshadow Palette

So I'm not sure if you've heard about Fuschia, basically it's an Irish makeup company who makes EVERYTHING from foundation, primers, bronzers, blushes, eyeliner, lipstick, lipgloss and so on (I could list for days), basically every makeup product you could need! Check them out here!
I first used Fuschia while doing my beauty therapy course, they were the makeup brand we used. We had a big makeup stand full of all the products and our own little kits (including the palette I'm about to show you) I fell in love with them immediately. Especially with their extremely pigmented eyeshadows! Which is why I wanted to show you their palettes!





As for the packaging, you know I'm a sucker for black packaging! This palette is extremely sturdy, its not at all flimsy, and it's take a lot of beatings in the year I've had it! (hence the dirtiness of it!)
Now onto the good stuff ;) THE SHADOWS.

Fuschia 5 pan eyeshadow palette* €40 here

Please ignore the huge chunks taken out of the shadows, for college we had to scrap the shadow out with a spatula onto a plastic palette for hygiene reasons when using them on clients.

Colours from L-R: 16P, CM18, 17, 18, 31P

So these are the colours I got in my palette, as I said I got this in my makeup kit for college and we didn't get to choose our own colours but I think I lucked out! I got the perfect 3 neutral colours, a gorgeous deep shimmery blue and a green. 
I love using the blue for smokey eyes in the corner of my eye instead of a black or a dark grey, it still gives a smokey effect but with a hint of colour, its not like using a bright blue shadow, its very subtle.
I also use the darkest brown to fill in my brows! Its the perfect brown!

They have a huge range of colours (60 dontcha know!) and you can buy different sized palettes also.
Single Shadow: €12.50
Two Pan Palette: €18
Three Pan Palette: €28
Four Pan Palette: €35
Five Pan Palette: €40 

You can buy online (here) or you can pop into a local stockist (find the nearest here at the bottom of the page).

Have you tried any Fuschia products yet? What do you think of them?
