This month's palette is called "Flocking Fabulous." It's packaged inside a matching cardboard sleeve.
Oh my. These are really bold! I don't even know where to start! They are so over-the-top summery and bright, but aside from the browns and the metallic coppery shade, I have no experience here. Let's start with swatches.
Here are the first 5. Top to bottom: Beach Bum (matte), Coconut (matte), Sunset (matte), Sundaze (matte), Palm Tree (shimmer). The two top browns could be a little smoother, but I am really impressed with how bright that yellow and orange are!
The shimmers from top to bottom: Banana Leaf (shimmer), Tangerine (shimmer), Flock Star (shimmer), Glamingo (shimmer), What the Flock (shimmer)
These were smooth and highly pigmented. The last color was a little "chunkier" than the other shimmers, but still went on beautifully.
I have to say this again: These colors are WILD and totally out of my comfort zone. I reached out to a makeup artist friend and she shared a look she had seen recently from Samantha Ravndahl on Instagram with very similar colors:
Ok, cute! I decided to give it a try! This is the part where I tell you I am not a makeup artist and once again, have no idea what I am doing when it comes to these bold neon shades.

Here is what I came up with. I used Flock Star over most of my lids and blended it out to soften it. I added a little bit of Sundaze to the outer edge. I lined my lower lid with Glamingo and softened it with a brush. I think the general idea of this look is there, but I could absolutely use a little more practice blending such vibrant colors.
Would I ever wear this look out? Probably not. I always reach for neutral shades and don't really ever wear a ton of makeup. But even I have to admit that this look was really fun! What was (for me) a rather intimidating palette became more like an art project, especially when I was trying to replicate other looks. Maybe this is a new hobby for me? Colors like this make me appreciate even more the artistry and skill that goes into those amazing seamless looks created by makeup artists.
The Verdict: This limited edition ShadowMe palette felt really unique. The colors were bold and super summery, and like nothing I have in my collection. While these might be colors that someone with more experience might get more out of, I did have a lot of fun trying to create looks with them after I got over how intimidated I was by the neons.
