Too Faced Gingerbread Extra Spicy Palette

This palette has been released as part of the Too Faced Holiday 2019 Collection, which is limited edition. I also purchased the original version of this palette, Gingerbread Spice, last year. I knew I had to own both and the colour story is perfect for me. Although at first glance they do look similar, there are actually some differences. The packaging is the usual tin material that the Chocolate Bar Palettes are made of and the same as last year. It is warm brown colour and has raised gingerbread men graphics on it. It has the usual magnetic opening/closing and it also contains a small mirror. It is available for £39.00 from CultBeauty.co.uk and TooFaced.com. You get eighteen 0.70g eyeshadows in a variety of finishes; Matte (M), Metallic (ME), Satin (S) and Glitter (G).

Jeffree Star Cosmetics Alien Palette

This palette has been out for a long time now and I always resisted it as some of the colours do not appeal to me, but I really wanted that green Alien shade so bad. I also do not personally like the packaging. There was a 30% off sale on BeautyBay.com, so I decided to pick it up as it was considerably cheaper at just £33.60!. The packaging is rather huge. It is kind of egg shaped with a point to resemble an alien head. It is made out of hot pink pleather and it has raised metallic grey plastic eyes. The branding and palette name is printed in white font. It has a magnetic closing which you lift up to reveal the inside of the palette. The top part (lid) folds back and also has a small mirror. The square eyeshadow pans are arranged across a metallic gunmetal grey base. The shade names are printed in white font. The eyeshadows have the usual JSC logo imprinted into them, apart from two which are a Flying Saucer/Spaceship and an Alien head. You can purchase this palette for £48.00 from Je
