This is an oldie in my make up bag abut one I still reach for often. I think maybelline have really nailed their eyeshadow formulas and there’s not a lot of pallets that I find myself hitting the bottom of the pan and this is one of them. The is a lovely mix of shimmers with a few mattes in there to balance it out and the red burgundy colours are highly pigmented and blend out great. I’m stoked they still continue to make this one as my favourite all time pallet the nudes has been discontinued. It blends out lovely and the colours are really pigmented and compliment each other well. I’ve created some stunning looks with this pallet and will continue to repurchase.

Tips: Don’t drop it….I did and one of the shades crumbled and went through everything. If you find a pallet you love only stocked in a few remaining places buy it up cause it normally means it’s going.
I like this one more than the blushed nuse one they made I do like reds and purples. I am not really into dark purple but this one has some nice red but it does not look very foiled once on the lid and can get patchy. Again though the shimmers / pearl shades are not impactful enough I like ones that do not show up the wrinkles on my eye lids - this happens with some certain formulas and when I have to pack them on the lid with layers. The packaging is really budget for the full price it is a bit steep. There are only two mattes they are ok. There is fall out and the pearls feel quite buttery but it is another beginner thing to play with. There is a nice goldy kind of shade and white that swatches nice but the plum purple is lacking and so are alot of the others in term of luster. All in all it is not bad you can get some nice soft looks but I like my pigments better
A nice array of beautiful naturals. Lovely pigments . A great item for your kit. A very affordable price for quality.
Nice palette to have in your kit. All the shades except the two lightest have great pigmentation and blend like a dream. The lighter shades are bit chalky. I don't really use them.
Tips: Highly recommend using a primer on eyelids before application. If you don't have a primer just use a little concealer and set with powder before applying the eyeshadow.
This palette comes In an attractive burgundy coloured case with rose gold writing and see through panel on top. Good selection of 10 shimmery shades and two matte shades. Comes with a double ended applicator, brush and foam tip, reasonably priced and a beautiful array of shades from dark brown to coppery gold and light shades. I would recommend this palette to anyone who wants a reasonably priced and good quality palette.
Tips: Use a light touch and a little goes a long way.
This is such a lovely palette, full of beautiful shimmery shades. I don’t wear eye shadow a lot but this is great to wear on a special occasion.
The colours are just gorgeous and gives you such a selection of lovely colours that are so shimmery.
Maybelline has come out with another winner for this palette. It is one of my favourite palettes. The eye shadow formula is really nice too.
This is at a reasonable price point and definitely worth it! I just love the colours.
LOVE the colours in this palette. Very pigmented, stays on the lids for a decent amount of time, also price! It's such a good price for what it is. Great for teens starting out, can find it in nearly every supermarket that stocks maybelline.
Tips: Prep your eye lids - primer etc then go hard!
The colors are perfect for a well balanced eye look. A couple of them come out slightly darker than j thought they would, but not in a bad way. Really great range of colors.
Tips: Make sure you keep it secure when travelling so none of them come out of their pans and break.
You know when you see something on your screen, and you hope it looks as good in real life? I was so hoping I'd love this palette as much once I had my mitts on it. AND I DO!
It is stunning. I think its a great size palette in that its compact, and easy to hold, but it contains a lot of shadow. It doesn't waste space on empty packaging if that makes sense.
There are only two matte shades here, so if you're not into shimmer then this might not be the one for you. But I LOVE shimmer and I love the rich deep shades. The true burgundy and the plummy colour are to die for and the other rich jewel neutrals are just stunning.
There's hint charts on the back of the palette for inspiration on what shades to blend, which I loved. And I did try some of them, and plan to try more. It's always good to mix it up.
The palette brush is pants, but that's ok, who expects anything more from a palette brush?! I use my regular brush set. The fallout is minimum and the payoff it good.
Oh Maybelline, you can take me to the Burgundy Bar any day of the week!
Lovely palette, would recommend to new makeup users! Very user friendly as it is easy to blend. I would use this in conjunction with other palettes and this palette is very glitter heavy.
Tips: A little goes a long way!
