CERTIFEYE The Eternity Palette

I have seen palettes by Certifeye on BeautyBay.com before and always thought that they looked beautiful, but I haven’t really heard anything about them from beauty influencers so I was sceptical about purchasing one. I decided to purchase the one I knew I would get the most use out of and it is exactly the colour story that attracts me to palettes.
 
The packaging is quite simple. It is made out of white cardboard and it has a rectangular shape. The design is quite plain, it just says “Do good and good will come to you” across it in a berry brush script font. It has a magnetic closing that you just lift up to reveal the square eyeshadow pans. The pans are arranged in three rows of six and each shade has its name printed underneath it. You can purchase this palette for £30.00 from Certifeye.co.uk and BeautyBay.com.

You get eighteen 1.4g eyeshadows in Matte (M) and Shimmer (S) finishes.

The eyeshadows should be soft and smooth, which will make them super blendable. The eyeshadows should also be very pigmented. This palette is vegan and cruelty free.

I was surprised by the quality of this palette. The shades are ultra-pigmented and are soft and smooth in texture and to apply. The mattes are super easy to blend and the shimmers are pretty. There wasn’t any noticeable fallout, but of course there was kick back in the pans (mostly from the mattes). I still recommend eye primer and glitter glue and shimmer/metallic shades are always best applied wet, with your finger or a stiff flat synthetic brush. The wear time of the mattes is great, but the shimmer shades do fade a little over time. The red shade Lovebug does look more pink when it is blended out, which is a little disappointing but a lot of red shades do tend to be pink based. The red shade Fancy looks the same as it does in the pan when blended out. I have no problems with the mattes but I wish there were a couple more shimmer shades and I wish they were more rich and metallic. Overall I am impressed with this palette, but the shimmers are a little lack lustre in my opinion. I have a couple more Certifeye palettes to test, so I will see if the shimmer formula is any different in those palettes. If you are mostly into matte shades, they do offer a couple of matte only palettes. I think they just need to up their shimmer game as that is my favourite formula (metallic to be more specific).

BY BEAUTY BAY Fiery 16 Colour Palette

This is the third BY BEAUTY BAY make-up product I’ve tried and I did see it on the website when it first launched, but never picked it up. It was always sold out anyway so I couldn’t get it and the packaging has just been re-vamped for all of their palettes and all of the products were re-stocked. I decided to pick this one up because of the size, it’s not too small and it’s not too big. The nine shade version of this palette is all matte, and I really like shimmers/metallic and the massive forty-two shade version is too big (too many shades and too big to store in my drawers). I thought the sixteen shade palette would be the perfect medium. My palette actually arrived faulty; one of the eyeshadows is missing (Burnt Sienna). In the spot were Burnt Sienna should be there is actually a duplicate of another shade in the palette (Sunstone). Basically, I have two Sunstone eyeshadows and I should only have one. I don’t have the shade Burnt Sienna when I should have one of them (abov...

Anastasia Beverly Hills X Nicole Guerriero Glow Kit

This palette became a cult favourite in the beauty sphere when it was first released as a limited edition product in collaboration with Nicole Guerriero (Beauty Influencer on YouTube), and there have been many calls to bring it back. In 2020, Anastasia Beverly Hills finally listened after three long years! I only actually heard about this palette after it had completely sold out and was no longer available. I must have been living under a rock at some point during 2017, because I completely missed this product! I am glad I finally got the chance to get my hands on this palette and I have heard nothing but raving reviews. There are six metallic highlighter shades, which should be highly luminous. They have a refined formula that should deliver buildable coverage with a smooth finish. The shades were created to flatter all skin tones and they can be applied anywhere on the face, eyes, lips and body. The palette is cruelty-free and vegan. You can purchase the palette for £42.00 (...

Morphe X Jaclyn Hill Volume II Palette

This palette has been out for a while now and I did purchase it a while ago, but I have only just decided to really play with it. Morphe palettes in general put me off because of the size of them, no shade names, boring packaging and too many shades in some palettes. The colour story of this palette in particular is really attractive to me. I didn’t buy Volume I as I didn’t want to jump on the band wagon, the size of the packaging and the colour story is just boring to me. I did pick up the Vault Collection (four palettes) and what a massive disappointment it was too (now decluttered)!! I was initially put off this palette due to my past experiences, but the colour story though! Also, a good thing about the Morphe website is that you can always get 10% off your order with an affiliate code.   THE PACKAGING The packaging is a quite large thin rectangular shape. It is made out of glossy white cardboard and it has the branding and information printed in metallic silver font on the fro...
