Violet Voss X Nicol Concilio Palette

I have actually had this palette for a while now and I have finally got around to reviewing it.
This palette is a collaboration with a YouTuber called Nicol Concilio. She is a beauty influencer and that is all I really know about her.
The palette design is similar to the other VV palettes, but the colour scheme varies and it still has the holographic rainbow effect on the packaging. It has a rectangular shape to it and it is slightly bulky and has a little weight to it. It has a magnetic closing and when you lift the lid it reveals the eyeshadow pans and a mirror. The packaging colour scheme is foiled icy pink and polka dots.

You get twenty 36g eyeshadows in a variety of shades and finishes.
NYC - white
ZO-ZO - pale gold
BRUH - matte tan
PIZZA - matte light brown
MARS - matte red toned brown
DAISY - matte cream
HANGRY - medium matte brown
BLOU - light red toned brown
HEY GIRL - deep brown
CHAWWCOLATE - dark chocolate brown
GLORIOUS - rose gold
NICOL - dark brown
 SAGITTARIOUS - light brown
GIGI - bronze
PALM TREE - golden green
L.A - yellow gold
VICTORIA - dark gold
BOOP-BOP - matte brown
PINGY - shimmering navy blue
RETROGRADE - matte black

The eyeshadows should all be highly pigmented and enable smooth blending to create flawless looks.

I really enjoy this palette. The quality is outstanding, the shades are extremely pigmented, smooth to apply and they do blend out flawlessly. I do find the shade selection a little boring because a lot of the shades look the same in the pans, but onced swatched they do look different. I of course love the shimmery shades and the mattes are perfect too. This palette is great, but it doesn’t get me as excited as the Holy Grail palette. I have already picked up the new VV Hashtag Palette, so a review on that will come very soon.

Glossybox #25 - February 2019

This is my third Glossybox since I re-subscribed last year. It is also the Valentine’s Day themed box. I would say that so far, this box seems to be the one most tailored to my usual interests. I received seven products in this box, technically six because two go hand in hand. HUDA BEAUTY Lip Contour in Venus This lip pencil formula is supposed to be waterproof and transfer-free. It should glide on effortlessly and give your lips an intense shot of colour. You can use it to contour or colour your lips or pair it with a lipstick. Venus is a warm beige nude shade. It glides onto your lips very easy, but it feels a little tacky when you fill your whole lips in with it. I’m not sure how often I would use this seeing as though I have never used lip liner. I prefer liquid lipsticks and I don’t feel the need to line my lips before applying it. | 1.20g - £16.00 | NAILS INC Nail Varnish in Status Ready This nail polish should be long lasting and super glossy. It is a deep che

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Jawbreaker Palette

I bought this palette back when it first launched (summer 2019) and I was interested in it so I could experiment more with bright colours. The colour selection definitely doesn’t disappoint and I was expecting it to be the same quality as the Blood Sugar Palette, if not slightly better! The packaging is quite a large rectangular shape and made out of metallic pink cardboard with colourful dots/dashes all over representing a jawbreaker pattern. The name of the palette is in a slightly raised font. It has a magnetic closing which you lift to reveal the twenty-four eyeshadow pans arranged on a white background. The other side is the same pattern as the front cover with a mirror. You can purchase it for £54.00 ($58.00) from JeffreeStarCosmetics.com and BeautyBay.com. You get twenty-four 1.50g eyeshadows in Matte (M), Shimmer (S) and Metallic (ME) finishes.

e.l.f Earth & Ocean Palette

I haven’t purchased anything from e.l.f in the longest time. I happened upon a post of this palette on Instagram and the complimentary comments really peaked my interest in trying it for myself. Palettes I have tried from e.l.f. in the past haven’t been the greatest of quality; I kind of associate the brand as being for children, beginners or natural beauty wearers. I was also interested in the Retro Paradise Palette , but I thought I would get more use out of this one at the moment.   THE PACKAGING The packaging is quite simple with a clear/black outlined plastic rectangular shape. The fronting is transparent so that you can see the eyeshadows from the outside of the palette. It has a clip closing, which you push apart to reveal the inside. The square eyeshadow pans are spread out across a black base and the shade names are printed in grey font under each pan. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get eighteen 0.94g eyeshadows in Matte (M), Metallic (ME), Glitter (G), Satin (S) and Shimmer
