Today I want to make a post about an eye shadow palette I got several days ago. It is Artist Palette by Anastasia Beverly Hills.
It does say on the website that's it's a limited edition. I have been using the Naked 3 palette for more than a year now. I was never much into eye shadow (I think because I didn't know much about the ways to use it) but starting this year I've been really learning a lot more and playing with different looks. So, after using a very neutral, rose, and gold shades I wanted a little pop of color. I checked out couple of different choices and stopped on this palette. I purchased it from Sephora for $35.
It comes with a two sided brush - one for blending, other is stapling.
Most of the reviews for it are on a negative side - and that's because in the description it says it is a very pigmented formula and is a professional make up artist choice. I would say their statement is not 100% truth. Some of the shades are pretty pigmented, most of them you have to build up, but I'm gonna talk about that more once I describe them next to the pictures. Soooo let's start!!
First shade (from the top) is Dusty Rose. It is pigmented, matte, and it's amazing to blend into crease to soften up the whole eye look. Next one is Aubergine, a deep dark purple, not so pigmented, has little glitter. Going down, the next one is Anaconda. A light green shade with little, almost unnoticeable glitter. It's not very pigmented and you will have to do several layers to build it up. Then, it is Punch Fuschia, which is a purply pink. This one almost looks matte but it is between being shimmery and having tiny bit of glitter. It's so not pigmented! Same as Anaconda, it will take several layers. Next one is Buttery, a very light shade that is good for highlighting. It is matte and pigmented. The last swatch on this picture is Blue Velvet, which is dark blue color with little glitter. It's not very pigmented but easy to build up.
The first shade is Coal - a good deep black with a little light glitter. This one is pigmented, great for smokey eye. Then, it's Unicorn - not so pigmented, but you can build it up, and it has some glitter too. Next one is Phresh, a yellow shade, which is matte, but very little pigmented. Going down, it's Baby I'm a star, a gorgeous brown shade with lots of glitter. It is one of the most pigmented shades in this palette. Then, it is Orange You Fancy, an orangy copper shade. It is pigmented and shimmery. The last one is called Beigely and it is a silver shimmery, quite pigmented shade.
