Beauty Haul: Profusion Eyeshadow Palettes and e.l.f. Bath & Body Lotion

I went to Ross last night, and as soon as I walked in, I headed towards their gift sets.  I was digging through their stuff when I came across  a few goodies – Profusion eyeshadow palettes and products by e.l.f. cosmetics.

Wow, there was  a lot of products by e.l.f. cosmetics.  I didn’t even know Ross carried e.l.f.  They had their nail polish sets, mineral makeup, and lotions.  I ended up getting their Pineapple Mango Nourishing Body Lotion for $2.99.  Yummy…it smells so good!     

Anyways, I had never heard of Profusion cosmetics and I wasn’t sure whether to buy these palettes or not.  But these eyeshadow palettes look like the ones from Coastal Scents and they’re extremely cheap.  So, I was like “what the heck I’m going to buy them.” 

Ross had many sized Profusion palettes to choose from.  I picked up their two biggest eyeshadow palettes.  I got the 88 Pro Eyeshadow Palette for $5.99 and a 98 color eye palette for $7.99.

The eyeshadows from the 88 eyeshadow palette are smaller and a bit more sheerer then the eyeshadows on the 98 eye color palette.  The eyeshadows on both sets are very creamy and beautiful. 

I know many of you will want to know how these palettes compare to the ones from Coastal Scents. Unfortunately, I don’t own the Coastal Scent palettes.  Boo hoo!

Anyways, I went on YouTube to look for video reviews.  Luckily, I found a video by the lovely eyeshadowanonymous where she compares the 88 eyeshadow palette by Profusion to the 88 eyeshadow palette by Coastal Scents.    


Have you had a chance to try any of these makeup brands? I would love to hear what you thought about them…

My friend had eyeshadow by Profound/Profusion. It was in a round jar type case with about 6 or 8 different shadows, all having thier own brush, called eyeshadow and glitter. I was wondering if and or where I can purchase this…Any info would be appreciated……Thank you…….

Hi Liz…Besides ROSS I’m not sure what other stores carry this brand. But the item that I think you’re talking about is currently listed on ebay as: Profound Ultra Shimmer 8 Color Eye Shadow. Hope that helps ^_^
