Hello gorgeous people!
Spring has finally arrived here, things are getting a little bit better, BUT, I'm still prone to spring allergies and stuff and right now I'm up with the worst sore throat ever! I hope you had a wonderful time at the Carnival/and what not, last week.
My mum purchased this make up palette from Demi Moore's collaboration with Oriflame, a couple of weeks back and honestly, I haven't stopped using it ever since!
First of, the packaging. It is quite sleek and feels very luxurious. The top is covered in metallic gold, while the bottom is crystal clear(plastic, it seems). When you open it up it's got a huge mirror which is so practical. It has four neutral, browny/bronzy eyeshadows, a blush and a cream highlighter. It's even got applicators for them, a lip brush, a blush brush and an eyeshashadow sponge brush. To be completely honest, I don't like using them. I never use the applicators that come with palettes anyway.
Now, the quality of the products is actually astonishing, I didn't really expect it to be that good. The colours blend so effortesly! The eyeshadows are beautiful and cover your basic, every day make up, but they can also be worn to look a bit more intense for an evening look. My favourites have to be the light shimmery one and the one on the top right!
Here comes the reason why I love this so much! The blush is a gorgeous rosy pink with lovely shimmer(not glitter!) running through it. It is the sort of colour that awakens your face and makes you look fresh and glowy! It can also look very chic and sophisticated for a night time look. I didn't really own anything quite similar, which is strange considering the fact that I have about a gazilion blushes which I don't really need. ^_^
The highlighter is a beautiful golden toned highlighter. It goes up smooth, and is not greasy at all. It gives the most amazing cheekbone highlight, even now that I'm super pale. I reckon this will look amazeballs during summer!
In all honesty though, there are a couple of cons to it. It is quite small for a palette. Too small. To the point where I dab my brushes with difficulty. And most importantly, it is ridiculously expensive. For Oriflame price standards anyway. I was quite in shock! It retails at about 30E. Thirty euro for a 7 gr palette? I didn't pay that much for it, my mum got it for about 15E.
I don't think it is worth the price, it is too small. I use it every single day, really but I wouldn't get it full price. If you manage to find it on discount, give it a try, 'cause it truly is a beautiful palette!
Have any of you girls tried this beauty?What do you think of it?
