I really love Illamasqua highlighters so thought I’d try an eyeshadow palette, but so far I’ve felt pretty disappoint. I find that it doesn’t pack the punch that I want in a colourful palette, and I feel that this just doesn’t unless it is really built up.
It’s fine, but I’ve got other colourful palettes that I would reach for a million times over! I’ve found that I absolutely ‘have to’ spray the brush if I want the colours to pop, and again I have other palettes that just don’t need me to do this.
Overall, it’s an okay palette but I would rather have the £10 back that I paid for it.

MAC Paint Pot in Painterly – 5/5
I’ve only used this a couple of times but so far I love it. I found that it made eyeshadow application a lot easier, and helped to enhance the overall look of my eyeshadow.
It covered any veins on my veins with only the thinnest layer, and I will definately be using again.
When attempting my first ever cut crease I feel like it helped the colours pop, and helped the process go a lot smoother than normal.
Overall I would definately recommend. I also feel that it will go a long way, as you really do not need much of it.
Painter’s Palette Sample Beauty – 4/5
Love this palette! All of the shades are lovely and pigmented and the colours are so unique. The price was also really good, especially considering the quantity.
The shimmers were amazingly creamy and bright, and I would definately recommend this if you want to go out of your comfort zone!
Despite pretty much every shade in the palette looking amazing, and searching well, when I tried the yellow shade on my eyea I was quite disappointed, as it had to be built up a lot to get to a stage where it looked noticeably ‘yellow.’
This was really disappointing as it was one of the shades I was looking forward to the most.
W7 Total Eclipse Palette – 5/5
I loved the W7 Total Eclipse! The glitters and the matts are both so soft, and the colours are georgous!
I loved the Huda Mercury Retrograde palette but couldn’t justify the price – this is a perfect dupe, and created such lovely and unique eyelooks.
The packaging is also really cute, and I can’t wait to play around with this some more!
