Dupe or Meh? Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Palette vs. Nyx Happy Birthday Palette

Hey Guys,

So today I did a dupe challenge with the ABH Modern Renaissance Palette and the Nyx Happy Birthday Palette which I got for my birthday from Ulta. I did one eye with the ABH palette and one eye with the Nyx palette.

Before I continue, I want you guys to guess in the comments which eye is which. Once you've done that you can read on.

Okay, so on the right side is the ABH palette and on the left is the Nyx Palette. The main difference I noticed was that the ABH palette was much more pigmented. I'm loving playing with ABH shadows recently and can't believe I missed out on them for so long. I'm totally in love. If you don't have the ABH Modern Renaissance Palette it's totally worth it. That being said, the Nyx Palette isn't bad quality, it is just harder to blend but is still decently pigmented.

I love both of them and am glad to have them in my collection!


XOXO

E.L.F. Need it Nude Palette Review

Hey Guys! So before I start this review I want to let you know that I received my z palettes today and filled them with my shadows. There is still some space in them that I might try to fill with Karity shadows or mac singles. Now onto the review. The palette comes with ten eyeshadows as well as a decently sized mirror. It costs $10 at the drugstore. Unfortunately, the third shade in the palette came popped out. (See Picture) The glue was not holding it in tight so that was kind of underwhelming for me to begin with. I had high hopes for the fourth shade in the palette. It looked like it would be a beautiful crease/transition shade. Unfortunately, it didn't even really show up. I didn't think this would be the same among the darker shades but unfortunately it was. If you see this and think it's a dupe for the naked palette. I would say think again. The shades may look similar but the fall out as well as the inappearance makes it really hard for me to even want to ...

Meview Monday: Violet Voss Flamingo Palette

Image
Hey Guys! So Today I'm going to be reviewing the Violet Voss Flamingo Palette! It retails for $45 at Sephora and comes with some nice summery shades. I enjoyed the shimmers and the pigmentation however, I found there to be a lack of crease/transition shades. If you click the link below, you'll find a look that I did with this palette and the Pat Mcgrath Labs Sublime Palette. Violet Voss Flamingo Palette Look In order to deepen up my crease, I had to bring in the Pat McGrath Labs Palette. There just aren't enough deep crease shades in the Violet Voss Palette. Is it a bad palette? Definitely Not! But, it's not for someone with only a few eyeshadow palettes. I would recommend it if you have a big stash and have some shades to compliment it. The lid shades are gorgeous but are not enough to make a look on their own. Overall, I'd give the palette 7/10. xoxo Christina
