Hope everyone is having a lovely Tuesday!
Today I am going to review the amazing Amrezy Palette by Anastasia Beverly Hills. This a nude palette with the perfect amount of Matte and Shimmery shades with two big pops of color.
Youtube Beauty Guru Amrezy herself said that her goal with this palette was to create palette where you wouldn't have to reach for any other eyeshadows. And that is exactly what she did. I am so obsessed with the palette it's ridiculous. I am constantly traveling back in forth from my boyfriends apartment to mine and seriously this is the ONLY palette I need to take with me! With a total of 10 eyeshadow colors in the palette, Amrezy hit it dead on with this one.The mirror is also the perfect size so that HONESTLY you don't need to reach for anything else!
Here is a closer look of the palette.
As you can tell I have pretty much used every color in the palate. The two shades Caramel and Morocco make for the most PERFECT crease color, while Vanilla and Legend make for the most perfect brow highlight. I am honestly in love with all of these colors. This palette lets you do a simple everyday eye, a dramatic smokey eye, and even a very bright colored eye with the shades Iridescent Purple and Emerald. Now, the shades Glisten and Topaz make for an amazing all over lid shade as well as a great inner corner highlight. As for LBD, well you just can't go wrong with a matte black shade.
These eyeshadows are a soooo creamy and pigmented its crazy, however, if you wanted to take it to the next level you can wet you brush with MAC Fix+ or use eyedrops to make the shimmery eyeshadows pop even more, leaving it with a perfect foil look.
I have swatched all of the eyeshadows on my arm below. Now since I have more of a caramel skin tone, the colors aren't as pigmented as they would be on someone more fair. BUT this just shows you how truly pigmented the eyeshadows really are. I didn't used any primer or eyeshadow based under any of these eyeshadows.
Here are the first 5 eyeshadows colors in the palette.
And here are the last 5 eyeshadows.
Now, for those of you that have darker skin tones than I do, if you used a base like the NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk or MACs eyeshadow base in Painterly, these eyeshadows will show up a lot better on your skin. I personally use MAC Pro Longwear concealer in NC 35 which is a few shades lighter than my skin tone. It cancels out any dark colors and veins on my eyelids and it works as a primer as well because it has anti-creasing technologies. I primer or eyeshadow base will ALWAYS make eyeshadows show up more vibrant.
My favorite color in the palette is by far Iridescent Purple. My favorite color is purple and this is seriously the most pigmented and creamy purple eyeshadow I own. Here is a look I came up with using this color.
All of Anastasia's eyeshadows are very creamy and pigmented. I chose to review this palette because its only $29.00 for great quality eyeshadows. You can only get three eyeshadows at MAC for this price. There are only two down falls to the palette. The first being that this palette is now ONLY sold on Amazon (if it's somewhere else please comment below and let me know!) and it does have a little fall out when packing some of the shimmery colors on the lids. Other than that this palette is amazing and overall I would give this palette a 9 out of 10!
I hope this review was helpful and let me know if you would like to see a makeup tutorial of this look. Here is a direct LINK to Amrezy's blogpost about her palette! I hope this helps too!
Have a great rest of your night.
Much love,
XOXO
