Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Vol. 3 Palette Review

Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Vol. 3 Palette Review

I know I probably talk way too much about Tarte products, but I'm always going to want to try products that I think I'll love and Tarte never fails me. Some might say that these Rainforest of the Sea palettes are a little bland, but I personally love them. I feel like they could've added a little more pops of color. The reason I'm not too upset with that is because of the Make Believe in Yourself palette that they launched before these. It has so many fun shades to play with and I actually reviewed that palette as well. I'll link it below if you're interested. I like that these are a range of different neutral shades to use on a day to day basis. I also love the size of these, which makes them great for traveling! I also had to mention how adorably cute the packaging on these are! I know that's not as important as the actual product, but you can't deny that you wouldn't want these after seeing them.  These palettes are supposed to represent a beachy summer theme (I'm assuming here by their shade names). Even though they could really work for the summer time, I feel that they could easily help you achieve an autumn smoky eye, and that's why I still decided to do these reviews on them.


I've been a little behind getting this palette review on Vol. 3 done, but let me tell you this palette is just as gorgeous as the others! I feel like this isn't an ideal palette for traveling and using on its own like the other two volumes are. The reason I say this is because this whole palette is pretty much shimmery! There is one matte cream shade in this palette that you can use (I did use for the two looks I created using this palette only) as a base and transition. I like my transition shades to be a little darker, but I love this for a base shade! I feel like this volume has the most "summer vibes" to me and I probably won't be reaching for this palette much more until the spring and summer come back around. I created two looks (below) just using this palette. That's how I do all of these "palette reviews" right? I have to stick to the same. I did use every shade (in just two looks like the other two volumes!) and it was a challenge! These are gorgeous shades. They have pigmentation and look amazing on the eyes! It's just hard to create a look with so many shimmers. Both of these eye looks ended up being more of a "natural eye" or even a "glowy summer look", but I still wanted to finish these reviews. A few of the shimmer shades I had a hard time using with a brush. I honestly thought this palette may be a dud compared to the last two. After applying the shades with my finger they looked amazing! So there's 1 matte and 7 shimmers. There is a nice color range through the shimmers, but again all warm-tone neutral shades. I think this palette is perfect for when you're searching for that perfect shimmer shade to finish a look. This won't be one I travel with or use again by itself, but with other palettes and/or single shadows I will definitely get use out of this! 

Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Vol. 2 is a 8/10 for me! 

This palette is $36.00 and you can find it on Tarte or Sephora.

Doucce Freematic Eyeshadow Pro Palette (Nude) Review

Doucce Freematic Eyeshadow Pro Palette (Nude) Review You may have seen that I received this Doucce palette in my FabFitFun Winter Box . I have actually tried one of their single pans of eyeshadow from a subscription in the past and I did like it and thought it was super pigmented! First of all, I love how compact and cool this freematic palette is. There is small magnets on the back of each shade and the inside of the actual palette is a magnetic board like a Z-Palette. Then I want to mention how I do really like the color layout of this. It is a pretty neutral layout and has shades that everyone has, but the undertone of these are just so different to me. In a good way for sure! They do have other palette options on their website, along with a "build your own palette" option. I will eventually review the highlight (also a bonus!) that came with this, but I want to talk mainly about the 8 eyeshadows. They're just like the single one I received and is very pigm...

Shroud Cosmetics x BattyBean Hallobean Palette | Makeup

Where to begin with this palette? Could it be the best of this season? Possibly so! This second round of Shroud Cosmetics x BattyBean is everything I could dream up for a fall palette. Sure, I love the past Its Freakin' Bats palette. It is still a favorite with its spooky vibes. What the Hallobean Palette gives is not only a spooky vibe but a fall lovers' essentials in the shade range. With 5 mattes and 4 metallics, you have a good balance in formulas that are some of the best. The mattes are pigmented but are some of the easiest shadows to blend out. The metallics are a buttery dream with the prettiest payoff. These stunning shades that are named after such iconic Halloween movies/characters are everything and new favorites.   BattyBean did an incredible job on another gorgeous color story and Shroud really does deserve all the love/hype they are getting! xx Shades left to right: Ghastly, Afterlife, Crypt, Woodsboro, It's Showtime, Black Flame, Losers Club, Ghoulish...

Bh Cosmetics X Shaaanxo Palette Review

Bh Cosmetics x Shaaanxo Palette Review: I've been using this palette for quite awhile now and I've always loved it. I've been doing a lot of these "palette reviews" lately and plan to keep doing them, so why not do some old favorites as well?  If you like warm-tones, then this palette is for you. This was the palette that came out just before Kylie Jenner launched a palette that some say looked quite similar.  From pictures, they do seem to have close to the same shades. I only own this one so I can't say much for that palette. Shaaanxo's palette is stunning though. Even with just these 9 shades, I can/have come up with so many different eye looks over the summer. Speaking of which, this was one of my go-to palettes for the summer time. I still feel like I'll be able to get a lot of autumn looks with it as well. As you can see from the swatches, this palette is very pigmented and the shades blend really well on the eyes. The colors are also ...
