I, like everyone else, was immediately drawn to rose gold and trust fund, but fling and dubai are so very pretty and kind of finer so I found them a bit easier to put on. Good luck trying to get it to stick to a brush because it just won’t, I’ve tried. This means you get less precision with application and if you’re doing makeup on a client who is a bit funny with you using your fingers on their face it’s just not going to work. You don’t need to use any kind of primer or serum to stick it to your face but you’ll get best results if you pat it on with your fingertips. They’ve got a kind of sticky feel to them, which I suppose is what stops them from flaking all over your face. I think these are the focal point of the palette because they’re so different to anything you’ll find in other eyeshadow palettes. Now for the foil shades (3D metal, according to the box) that everyone’s talking about. There are only two ( angelic and moon dust) and I think there should have been more because of how lovely and easy to use they are, and maybe less of the patchy mattes. They’re iridescent and beautiful and soft. The shimmery shades, which are referred to on the box as “pressed pearls” are absolutely gorgeous. I have found you need to be very light handed with your brush or the shadows kind of gather in little patches and become impossible to blend out, so my advice would be to blend quickly and softly. UNLESS you keep blending after it looks okay. But they’re all really quick to blend out flawlessly, with next to no effort they just smooth right out. They do all have really good colour pay off even if they don’t swatch particularly well, they go on a lot smoother to the eyelid than they do on your arm. I love the shade bae as a base to set my eyeshadow primer, and bossy and maneater are just absolutely gorgeous. Hands up if you’ve ever bought something because you liked the packaging but the product was a dud! *hand shoots up in the air*įirst thing I’ll talk about are the matte shades. I’m usually a sucker for over the top packaging but I like this because the focus is on the product and not the pretty box it comes in. The box itself simple and sleek, and has a little window where the mirror would normally be. The packaging is nice, it comes with a plastic sleeve with her signature close up of her eyes. The palette is an eye catching mix of matte eyeshadows and metallic foiled eyeshadow with two pretty shimmery shades. So when I went to Sydney on a holiday the following week and happened to stumble upon a well stocked Sephora.? Well, I bought that palette as quick as a flash. Ears pricked, heart starts racing, fingers poised over add to cart. Like oh, another rose gold palette? seen it all before, no thank you… right up until .nz announces they’re gonna start selling it. There’s a lot of beautiful makeup it’s just about impossible to get in New Zealand and eventually you start convincing yourself that you don’t even want it. The thing about this palette is that I never knew I needed it, or even wanted it, until it was available in my country and I missed out on buying it.
