  • I have the black pearl one I just took the lil brush out and threw it away put the top back on and shook it a lil and the eyeshadow came out the whole into the top and I use it like that

  • you ned to wait for your camra to focus cause its too blurry

  • just stab the bottom and the pig ment will come out

  • those loose shimmmer powders with the weird shaped bottle i usually just tip it over and tap a lil out as i go like inside the lid or i bought these little teeny tiny tupperware things at the dollar tree and i usually at some in there a nd use it that way. ive tried to break them open so i can dump them in my lil tupperware things but they are hard as hell to break open.

  • my friend has lollipop and she uses it on her eyes cheeks and mouth and she looks like a hot.......messsssss!!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • I have some of the loose powder LA Colors shimmer and I throw the lil brushes away that come with them and when I want to use it, I just take the top of it and pour the loose shadow into the top and then apply it to my eye and when im done I hold it over the sink and dump it back in,

  • stab something like a pen into the bottom and pop the plastic piece off the bottom of the L.A colors loose shimmer powders to depot them. it's kind of a pain and you lose a little of the product, but it still works.

  • the quality is horrible

  • Nice review I love dollar tree but yea it's worth a dollar only can get so much u can eather pop this little platic lid off in side of it(hard)and mess or use a brush eyeshow thing not the spunjie thing u know them one u can throw away

  • you need a better camera no offense

  • now dollar tree in my area has nyc sally hansen revlon !!

  • i baught a bunch of those loose shadows from L.A. colors and i didnt like the brushes either so i got rid of the brush and i just shake the container upside down and then get the product out of the lid when i want to use it. that way you can use whatever brushes you want. great haul btw :)

  • ok what i did was i bought an elf defing eye brush and i shanke it up and down so it gets in the funnel and then i pick it up with the brush and aply it it works for all of them and the elf brushes are ony $1 at dolar genaral

  • uhm how much did they cost and where did you pick them up at a local drug store or walmart?

  • I have lollipop but i depot it B/C like you said the brush suck jk. brush doesn't work well.... omg i cant believe you got from the dollar store i got it from forever 21... i going to dollar store now lol

  • Damn I wanted to watch ur video but ur camera sucks ass. Srry

  • why you dont do video's online?

  • What I do is I take a hammer to containers like those and normally the bottom will kinda break off, of course you have to be very careful. But put the pigment into another container afterwords.

  • i made a video were you can learn how to depot them :) i love l.a colors i got them all :)

  • i love the eyeshadow colors =] be sure n check out mine comment n subscribe please

  • I'm sorry i can't stand the camera quality...

  • I love the LA Colors from the Dollar Tree...you got a lot of great things!

  • that camera stinks!!

  • Uhh.. Great Video.. But your camera quality kinda sucks. :P otherwise it was a great vid.

  • I saw fellow UTuber poke out the bottom of the LA shimmer jar. You need to transfer to a 20 size container.

    Look around YouTube in De-potting LA colors shimmer. Maybe you'll find it.

  • You sound cool and everything... but your cam kinda sucks...

  • Love the colors !

    I just brought sunshine and honeysuckle.

    And you are so correct on the brushes, they are FUNKY !! Not even worth putting in the jar.

    There are a couple of videos on how to depot them and you do so by taking off the bottom of the jars :)

    I'm going to be depoting mine tomorrow for sure !

    Thanks for sharing, love your haul, you brought some nice stuff !

  • i have an elf eyeliner brush and the brush fits in the hole.

  • hey, girl, i know how to depot them , what you do is get a tool, like a grip pliers, break the edge of the bottom all around and the bottom will come off, shake all shadow into another container and use a eyeshadow applicator, that brush is awful, you will get more of the color, and its really pretty, especially the gold, extremely metallic.

  • i use to think that too until i stared doing it.

    people do because you save money and not everyone can afford mac makeup and even things like revlon but at dollar stores the sometimes have revlon and stuff cheaper than other places and the cheaper makeup like la colors suprised me in pigment and smells good.youd be suprised what you can find.

  • well la colors and cover grl is rlly gud so dont make fun of ppl jjst cuz they cant aford mac......i could aford it easly but i dont cuz i have a ulta near my house 2mins away! so shut up dont makefun u could nver say this 2 some1s face.

  • i have lollypop and i depotod mine and so i took the brush out and the i put the eyeshadow upside down and i had a pan and i took a butterkinf and hit it the bodoum of the eye sahadow and then whern i filled the pan i sprade it wirh alcohal

  • for ways to repot the pigments, check out mullins2day's video on an easier way to repot them! hope it helped (:

  • Your lighting sux xD haha it's ok tho Great Haul!

  • take the white part out of the bottom of the loose shimmers to depot them

  • i tried doing that one time and mine wouldn't come out

  • King Dollar nothing over $1.09 store keeps alot of L.A. Color items and also carries many other name brand items that i have recently bought and they are great. The eyeshadows i bought are so pigmented, I just love them.

  • i just turn over pigments and tap it on my vanity it works well for me and i dont have to worry about spilling like i do with mac pigments! love dollar store hauls!

  • actually i bought some of it and it works really good for me!

  • some of it is actaully really good :)

  • you have to depot them from the bottem

  • I know this is an old vid and I may have already told you but I just made a new vid on how to decant them fast n easy!

    Enjoy!

  • your lighting sucks !!!

  • de pot them from the bottom. Mine happened on accident but it still cal off. I love la colors you reminded me to get some more

  • I got these and i hate the brushes!!! you have to take your fingernail or a toothpick and take the white bottom off. they just pop right off.

  • omg i know! i hate the brushes!

  • I went the cheap way I brought a med pill holder from Moday thru Friday depoted them in the pill holder,might be getto but it worked for me

  • just dump the powder out into a little jar. =)

  • I tryed to attach my vid on decanting the LA Colors to yours! Did you not want it?

    Helives!

  • i bought a set of 24 storage pots from walmart for 696. my brother actaully drilled holes in mine and got the colors out for me... did a good job actually and got all the color out..

  • what i did to de pot them is i got a container *(small) and taped it all out into the container.

  • wher do u get the L.A cosmetics

    please tell meh!

  • I got my whole collection at Sars Market place.

    ------------

    And for the record yes the brushes are the worse i have ever seen lol

  • Where do you buy L.A. cosmetics?

  • duh! any makeup store or the dollar store!

  • you can depot them by cracking the side and peeling it out it comes out easy

  • i love L.A cosmetics!! because it´s cheap and pretty,

  • To Depot them jsut pour them into another littlw empty lipgloss case

  • could you help me find out where to get cheap makeup? plz?

  • there is a little seam in the bottom. pop them out through there, but they make a HUGE MESS! so put down some wax paper and thenyou can save what you spill!

  • I have the urban palette, and it looks a little chalky. but when you say its good for "color experation" what do you mean?

  • if you don't know if you like a colour, or if it would look good on you, you can buy a knock off and ty it out. =)

  • love lets hear it for the boys! :} sweet pleasure's looks really pigmented.

  • I got radiant, sunshine and black pearl today.

    i saw lollipop but i didnt get it >.> and this one other color lol

  • lighting is too bright and not focused enough

  • I depoted mines by taking a tack and popping it through the bottom and pulling the bottom out than I put the pigment into an empty Sallys Girl glitter container I had. But if you do it be careful because if you dont do it right whne you pop the bottom off the pigment will go EVERYWEARS!!

  • i dont like that u cant put the brush in either i felt like cracking them but i just pored it out little by little taped the bottom

  • MY DOllar General doesn't have those palettes :( I want some! They had some, but not Urban. :(

  • my dollar tree only had lolipop and I LOVE IT!!! I hope they get more colors soon!

  • i got some today and i have snowwhit lilpop and pearl black

  • i hated the brush too! so i just put the container in a ziplock bag then hit the side of it with the back of a butter knife and the bottom poped right off then i just pressed it into an old covergirl pan =] hope this helps love!

  • whoa..hit the side of the container?

    That's different. =)

  • LOL trust me it works perfect! the container didnt even break the bottom just popped off. did you find another way?

  • yeah,I took the bottom off.{I pried it off,less mess this way.}

    I showed Mullins2day on how to do it,her way is good,also.

    Just don't poke your self!!

  • I got mine in honey suckle and the only way I know how to use any other kind other brush with it is to take the brush out and tap it on the table into a jar and just use as much as you need or I'm sure you could break it into a jar somehow.

  • Oh My GOD! I didn't know Dollar Tree had L.A. Color and I didn't know L.A. Color had loose powders!

    I'm SOOOO going on a shopping spree!

  • they have at at a store called "pixi" and it was like $3 XD there was a dollar tree across from it.

  • oh! your missin' out! sephora ia heaven! did you ever find out how to de-pot them? those brush's do suck! i'v just been tapping them on to a napkin to get some out. but i feel like iam waisting it. i wish i could make a vid, but i dont have a video camera... boooo!

    xoxo

  • Yeah, over in the description box is a link to really good video that Mullins2day did on how to depot them. :)

  • @misscasseycakes u can make a video whit your webcam

  • i got honey suckle, sunshine, and snow white. i used the sunshine wet, as an eye liner and its amazing! i also got a physicians formula eye shadow stick in sand. and fiery glimmer and out loud orange in the lip gloss'. i love them all! iam heading to sephora today and iam gonna hit up the redondo store on the way.

  • Sephora! I've heard good things! I've never shopped there because they don't have one in my area. Have fun sugar! :D I hope you do a haul video and show us what you got.

  • i have the same stuff! i didn't like the brushes they came with either they were crap!

    so i took them outt then i dumped them upside down and let the color into the cap then i opend it up- upside down. it worked for me, && i didn't put the brush back in well hope i helped you!

    Sarah

  • Thanks, Sara! I found a video done by mullins2day that shows how to depot them. If you're interested the link is in the video description box. :)

  • I JUST posted on your other video about the L.A. Colors palette that I didn't like that I got....it's the urban one in this video. :)

    Not very pigmented, and the colors aren't exactly gorgeous!

  • I know, I mentioned that here that the colors aren't very pigmented in that palette. lol It sucks, but some of their other palette's aren't bad. :)

  • I'm hoping that our dollar store will get different ones very very soon. I've heard good things, so I'm hoping it's just that one palette and not the brand as a whole. I'll find a different palette and give it a shot. :)

  • Yeah, I'd stay away from the 12 color palettes as they aren't very pigmented, but the six color palettes aren't bad. The best so far that I've seen though in that brand are the single loose eyeshadows.

  • I'll look for them next time I go to the dollar store! Thanks!

  • These are very easy to depot,the bottom comes off with a little prying.Mullins2day has two videos on how to do this,The secound video I offered another way to depot these.Just don't poke yourself!

  • Honeysuckle is awesome as well!!

  • OK I have never seen the sunshine!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love it!!!!!!!!!

    I have all the pigments, except the sunshine, and I have the pallet in sweet pleasure.

    Im glad you said the 12 shadow pallet didnt have much pigment, I have bought one yet, but was thinking about it, just didnt find one with the bright colors I liked, now I will not. :0)

    OMG I have to hunt down the sunshine, even if I have to pay the $3.99 for it!! I love it!!! Im so into yelllow. :0D

    Great haul, thanks for sharing.

  • Isn't it pretty! I love the bright color and the shimmer rocks my socks! If you can't find it let me know, I have an extra one I can send if you'll pay for shipping which should only be a couple of bucks if you are here in the states.

  • Cool

    I have a couple of more places to look, if I dont find it Ill let you know!!!

    Thanks for the offer. :0D

  • Here in Oklahoma City,the L.A. Colors Pigments are a dollar at the Dollar Tree and The Dollar Tree.

  • hi, i had a question...have you tried the aziza brand makeup..i saw it in dollar tree too...but i wasn't sure how it was...is it good like LA. colors...thanks..

  • I've not tried their brands. I see them every time I go to the dollar tree but I haven't been brave enough to try them yet. Next trip I'll try to remember to pick up at least a couple items from them and let you know what I think. :)

  • The Aziza makeup line is ok,the eyeshadows have a fair pigment,they do fade.But,they are great for experimenting with color.

  • thanks girl!!!!appreciate it....tc

  • i'd say you should deff start selling! great idea!

  • These colors are great! Were did you purchased them?

  • I got them from the Dollar Tree. Only a dollar each! :) Kick butt bargain! :D

  • Hey! Nice palettes Diva!

    I have never seen those from LA Colors before.

    Take care!

  • wow LA COLORS has really nice makeup and its so cheap i wish it was easier to find here where i live! great haul video! =D

  • Yeah, I've had several girls writing to me, lamenting the fact that they don't have these items where they live. One girl suggested I pick up some more and sell them to girls who don't have them in their areas. I think that might be a good idea as I was recently laid off and would love to have a little bit of money coming in until I can find a new job. I'd have to charge a little more then what I bought them for of course to make up for the gas fee and shipping fees. Hmmm... Might be an idea?

  • You could sell them and have us pay shipment as long as you will combined them for people who order more then one it should work.

  • That's a good idea. :)

  • oooo I would so be your customer..hehe please do it,..

  • Hmmm... Well I'm thinking about it. Once I figure how much it's going to cost me to ship it and reimburse myself for the gas so that I'm not actually losing money doing it, I think many girls will probably not want to pay it. lol

  • I gave her the new way to do it!! =)

  • yay great haul! sweet colors!

  • oooooh nice haul!! the color payoff is pretty awesome for being $1! i'm leaving now to buy a few! LOL thanks for showing this to us =)

  • You're welcome, hun. Just remember to use primer before putting on the color. I used primer on my hand and arm before applying the color swatches so that it would show up their true color. If you don't use primer these colors are going to look really washed out and faded.

  • I have the loose eye shimmers and some of those palettes,and I tell you I love them!!

    Sunshine,of the loose eye shimmers,is my most fave.<3

  • got it =) thanks again!

  • mullins2day did a great vid on depottin them and i have a vid on some niffty (lol) things to put them in to keep them together

    !!AWESOME HAUL!!

  • Thanks, sweetie! I saw mullins video, I'll have to check out yours. :) *hugs*

  • Lollipop Sunshine

    I love those color's.

    Great haul,good swatches

  • Hey sweetie Umm I got some makeup well it isnt as vibrant as you have., Is there a way I can make them stand out more?

    *kiss*kiss*

  • Yeah, the best way to make your colors pop is to prime your eyes. I put primer on my hand and arm before applying the color swatches to show their true color. The best primer you can get on the market today is Urban Decay Primer Potion. Also you can use a stick concealer. And there is a trick that some makeup artists use (now this won't last very long, but works well if you are just going out for a couple of hours)- apply a very VERY thin layer of Vaseline to the eyelid before applying color.

  • actually tapping the container will make the bottom fall down so be careful because it's a mess.

  • LOL Thanks, sweetie. Yeah a couple girls showed me mullins2day's video on how to depot them. She used a screw driver too. :)

  • hey.. i know how to depot them.. we also have them here in the philippines but comes with a different brand.. you have to have something to push the bottom from the inside.. i used a small screw driver. haha..

  • my dollar tree sucks they never have anything. good finds.

  • Yeah mine usually doesn't have anything good either. I usually find a good gloss or something and that's about it. So when I found saw that it finally got the L.A. Colors loose pigments in I was so jazzed!

  • Two wows:

    1. Pigments from Dollar Tree!  Are you serious??!

    2. Let's Hear it for the boooy woohoo!

    Great video!

    Oh and mullins2day has an awesome video about depotting those thing. She made two, but the last video is a bit easier. She found a way to pop off the bottom of the container!

  • Oh awesome, thank you!

    I'm definitely going to go check her video out. I've been fiddling with the darned things for the past hour trying to figure out how to transfer the powder to a different pigment pot. lol
