ABH Modern Renaissance Palette Review

It took me so long to jump on this bandwagon. This palette has haunted me forever through social media. I could hold myself back, so when it was in stock from a local trusted seller, I just have to get it. Usually, it will be sold out in just a day. Glad I finally have it.This is the most loved eyeshadow palette from most beauty gurus in YouTube for 2016. It is the Modern Renaissance Palette from Anastasia Beverly Hills. Features warm colours that perfect for a natural look and of course warm glam look.

It comes in a suede outer packaging and the inside is cardboard. I like the suede detailing but yeah, it takes a real deal to care for it. I try my best to avoid any stains on it like what I did with my Naked 1 palette. It comes with a dual ended brush which I loooveee! I don't usually like brushes that come with the palette, but this one is the real deal. The blending brush is amazingly useful and works amazingly good.

I had this for a few months now but I don't really go through everything. My favourite go to natural looks shades are on the left side. Golden Ochre, Raw Sienna & Burnt Orange are an amazing transition colour. Vermeer & Primavera area my favourite all over lid colour. Cyprus Umber & Realgar are y favourite outer crease colour.

Beware of fakes one. There are all over the market. Sad thing :(. Overall I really love this palette, the variety of warm colours it has and how super pigmented the shadows are.

Anastasia Beverly Hills products are not in Malaysia yet. I got mine for RM250.00 from trusted seller Beauty Fiks. Her website is - http://www.beautyfiks.com/

NYX Butt Naked Underneath It All Palette Review

I got this palette a while back last year during my birthday and it has been my staple palette when I am traveling last year. This palette make me discover that I love warm and burn orange eyeshadow. Never knew it is such a versatile color and a pretty bold color to be use in my everyday. It makes me wanna go and find a single eyeshadow color that looks like some of these eyeshadow and put it in my custom empty palette. This palette comes with 15 eyeshadow color with a mix of matte, glitter, shimmer and satin finish, 4 blusher from lights, peach and bright and lastly 3 illuminators. The blush and illuminators are place in a easy to slide pan on the bottom part of this palette. The case is made out of plastic and comes with a big huge mirror that is handy. Its pretty bulky but I find that it is travel friendly.

 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Here are the swatches for the NYX Butt Naked Underneath It All Palette.

The 15 eyeshadow.

From first row left to right. You can see the numbering on the back of the box packaging. There are no specific names for each of these shadows. My favorite has to be number 2,5,7, 11, 13 & 14. Some of them are butter smooth especially the top row and some of them are pretty chalky like he number 15. It is one of a kind palette that not natural palette usually have. The mix of burnt orange, greens and dark plums are amazing to create different looks than your usual. 

The 4 blusher and the 3 illuminators.

The blush are pretty okay, not that pigmented and you will need a whole lot of layer to make it visible. My favorite blush are the one in number 3 and 4. A natural matte blush that looks good together. The illuminators was pretty disappointing. It is pretty chalky and hard to blend. It does not look really smooth on my skin. But they look pretty cool when swatched.

Look I created using this palette :

I use the eyeshdow number 11 for my entire lid, 15 for my transaction shade, 12 for my crease and I deepen out my crease using the number 14. I also use the plum shade number 12 on my lower outer corner. I highlight my inner corner using the eyeshadow in number 10. For cheeks I am using the blush in number 3 and 4 then highlight my cheekbones using the illuminator in number 2. 

You can purchase this palette at Sephora. I am not sure if they are a LE or a permanent palette. I got this from my mom during my birthday and I think they retails for about RM100+. What do you think of this palette?
