I always feel weirdly guilty whenever I bite an animal cracker or ruin an animal design on a pan of makeup (like these cute kitties!). Like, I know I’m not hurting them because…they’re inanimate, but I still nibble on the corner of the cookie that I imagine would hurt the least, like the tip of the ear or the tail or a toe… I can’t just go in and RWAARRRR! — dig my fangs into the tummy or, worse, bite the entire head off. IT FEELS SO WRONG!
These kitties in these pans look so peaceful and happy that I actually did everything I could to avoid their eyes and smiles when I wanted to use them. I dipped my brush into one ear, took a li’l from the chin, and I even used my brush to pretend that I was petting them…
What can I say, man? I’m a weirdo.
The Katy Kat Eyeshadow Palettes
I like these! They have a bit of fallout, so they aren’t perfection in a palette, but they’re pigmented, they’re affordable, they’re super soft, and there are kitties in the center! — which of course is cat lady catnip.
I like Hot Kat a little more than Cool Kat… Actually, a lot more, because most of the Cool Kat shadows are chunky and frosty. I think the blue and green in Cool Kat are beautiful, though, whether mixed together or worn separately (I mixed them together for my makeup here). Super pretty.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

The swatches look pretty good, but most people seem to dislike (or hate) CoverGirl eyeshadows. I don’t have enough experience with them to say, either way.
Karen says
I think they’re great for the price, CL!
Cara says
I totally get it – it’s not weird. I would not be able to use these palettes because no way am I wiping the smile off that kitty! My sis once made me a birthday cake with the Choco-cat Sanrio character on it and I could not bring myself to cut into it – had to tell my mom to do it. 🙂
Karen says
I’m so glad someone else feels the same way, Cara! I would also have a hard time cutting into that cute Choco-cat cake, btw (and how lucky you are to have a sis to make you one). So I have to know… Was it a chocolate cake?

That is why I always bite the head off first, that way the pain is over. Imaging someone slowly chewing off your paws!
Karen says
Ha!
Tatiana says
They’re sooo cute!
Chelsea says
Shimmery things are making my eyes itch so much lately, and it makes me sad! These are cute palettes.

Hello,
I am not finding anywhere to buy these. I checked Cover Girl’s website and it’s not working. Do you know where to get these?
