HUDA BEAUTY

I’ve been meaning to try out Huda Beauty for a very long time. The mini Huda Beauty Warm Brown Obsessions Palette is my first purchase from the brand which I absolutely adore for its quality at such a good price. It is a mini portable palette that consists of 9 eyeshadows in different finishes. There are 4 colors released for the range and I picked the warm brown as the combination of peaches and warm brick browns are right up my alley!

closer look

Though it is called a mini palette, in my opinion, the eyeshadow is still comparable to full size (larger than the MAC single pan eyeshadow). I am totally impressed with the quality and texture as the powders are densely packed, creamy and smooth to the touch with intense color payoff and absolutely no fallout. For the quality, they are noticeably better than the eyeshadows of the same price range such as Zoeva and Colorpop. The matte colors just glide on silky smooth and easy to blend, that feels even better than the matte shadows from higher-end brands such as MAC etc. The shimmer shade is over the top. It is so intense that you literally need a tiny bit to accentuate for a foil-like finish. I know that Huda is most known for its desert dusk palette, but I think the colors are too bold and dramatic for my style, whereas this palette still has a similar tone but contains more wearable colors with a punch that is great for everyday use!.

Swatch

Verdict – Great price and makeup on point! Highly recommend it!

My makeup shopping mojo is back in full swing so I’ve been shopping a lot, as well as adding a lot of things to my never-ending wishlist. I thought I’d share what I have bought lately, and what is on my mind! Clearly, I am going through a warm brown eye shadow phase – as you can see in my wishlist. Taupe is so last year so I have put all my cool taupe palettes aside, and I am now on a mission to collect every variation of warm brown color, particularly in the color families of terracotta, reddish clay and burnt rusty brown.

1. Huda Obsession Palettes – Huda just released a set of new eyeshadow palettes in smaller packages. I ordered the warm brown palette here as soon as they became available as I know they will sell out soon. Currently, CultBeauty is offering free international shipping for Huda Beauty (no minimum order value).

2. Anastasia Beverly Hills Prism Eye Shadow Palette – Another beautiful highly sought-after eyeshadow palette that I just bought! I love the Modern Renaissance so much (reviewed here), so it’s a no-brainer for me to pick up her newest release, and the colors are right on point.

3. Fenty Beauty Match Stix – Totally worth the hype and I am really impressed with the quality of Rihanna’s beauty line, and my favorite product of her line is the Match Stix. This MatchStix Trio Set in light is possibly the best contour and highlight set I have ever used! Review to come soon.

4. Smashbox Cover Shot Eye Palette – Just can’t resist the reddish terracotta shades, so I had to have the highly raved palette in the color Ablaze.

5. Giorgio Armani Cushion Foundation – Absolutely amazing formula. It’s definitely a must-have if you like cushion foundations.

6. Natasha Denona Sunset Palette – I heard so many good reviews about her eyeshadow palettes and her best seller is finally back in stock!

7. La Mer The Sheer Pressed Powder – La Mer offers a lot more than their legendary cream. I am a big fan of their powder as they make the finest airy powder so I can’t wait to get my hands on their newest release.

8. Suqqu 2017 Japan Christmas Collection – Trying to get hold of Suqqu is exhausting. I just received my Suqqu palettes from the UK 2017 Christmas Collection, and now I have my eyes set on the Japan Christmas Collection! If you know where to get them without the exorbitant additional margin, please let me know!
