Love it or Leave it...MUFE Technicolor Palette

Here in VA, we are chomping at the bit for some spring-like weather! We want to say bye to the cold and welcome in the warmer temps and colorful spring flowers. We crave pretty pastel and bright colors on our nails and in our wardrobes. But we also crave them on our eyes...well, sometimes. Have you guys seen Make Up For Ever's newest eye shadow palette - Technicolor Palette? It has a few neutral shades and then bursts with bright colors of yellow, blue, green and purple.

What Sephora Says:

What it is:
An eye shadow palette that combines eight classic neutrals and statement colors to create a range of eye-catching looks.

What it does:
Inspired by the 1930s cinematic transition from black-and-white motion picture to color imagery, Technicolor Palette features bold, saturated colors that bring the eyes to life. Mix and match the eight shades to create highly pigmented, long-lasting looks that reflect any style or mood. This palette features three exclusive colors, including the season’s coveted yellow shade, along with a mirror and two round brushes for application on the go.

This set contains:
- 8 x 0.03 oz Eye Shadow in Black, Yellow, Apple Green, Turquoise, Lilac, White, Espresso, Yellow Beige

What else you need to know:
Technicolor Palette features two step-by-step tutorials.

Retails USD: $45 -- purchase here icon

What do you guys think? Too close to wearing Easter on your eyes? Or the perfect pops of color to set off the new season? We are thinking that these colors aren't quite right for us, so we'd leave this one on the shelf. But that's not to say that the colors aren't pretty. So please leave us a comment and let us know if this is a "love it or leave it".

Hope you guys are having a great day!
