Hello my beauties :)
I hope you are all well :) Wow 2014 already isnt it cray cray
Well for my first 2014 Review I have a lovely treat for you :) :)
I am sure you all know the lovely Judy from Its Judy Time Her Beauty channel is a hit all over youtube and she has some amazing makeup looks reviews and all sorts on it. She was one of the first Beauty Lovers I watched on Youtube and I havent stopped nor will I ever as long as her videos keep coming. Awww and thats not to mention her vlog channel which is Its Judys Life. Years I have been watch her life as she vlogs everyday. I feel like I know her more than some of my own friends Watching her get married, when she first announced she was expecting watching Julianna grow into a beautiful baby girl and of course hearing them announce they were expecting twins I cant wait to see the Little bundles of joy. They are a lovely family and a pleasure to watch every single day.
Sorry I am babbling Anyways When Judy announced she teamed up with one of my favourite online beauty stores BH Cosmetics to create her own eyeshadow palette I was super excited for her. I knew I had to get my hands on it even before she showed everyone the palette. I knew she would pick shades that would suit everybody.
The only down side is that its a Limited Edition and could get sold out any minute that why I was online straight away on the release date to buy :) The Good News Is I have checked the site and they are still available to buy as im sure BH Cosmetics are well stocked up as they always are on LE's.
First off all let me mention the writing on this palette. I love the fact its gold and its Judys style of writing the gold makes it stand out even more on the black palette which makes it look like you paid more than it cost. The palette the light and small near enough the size of the Naked Palette only its not as bulky. Perfect for travelling and perfect for fitting with you other palette collections. What I love about it is the lid is well secured with a magnet which means no mess in your bag. Its handy to open but seals shut with this magnet.
Now for the inside is nothing but pure beauty and of course a special message for all of us from Judy herself :) This is her all time saying "Natural is Beautiful but makeup is Glam" I love it
As you can see the palette consists of 12 stunning shades. All for the beautiful cost of $14.95/€10.99/£9.10 Amazing value for a palette like this. The one thing I have to add is your are only allowed to purchase one palette per transaction as they are at high demand and also Limited Edition I certainly plan on buying another before they run out completely.
As stated this palette consists of the perfect neutral shades aswell as jewel toned blues and purples perfect for day time and night time looks. Not only that but there is the perfect mixture of mattes, shimmers and satin eyeshadows which I love as its perfect for when you need to do a look in a hurry and dont want to be pulling out different palettes for the right shades or for travelling.
Let me show you these amazing eyeshadows Click on the photo for a closer look at these beauties
So starting with the top row we have:
- A brilliant matte highlight cream with a slight pink under tone to it Its a perfect matte highlight and a perfect blending out shade for those harsh lines :) very pigmented for a lighter shade
- A perfect transition shade for those blending out moments. You are getting a nice a light brown shade.
- I love this shade and also reminds me of a Naked Palette shade. You are getting a stunning Satin gold. It reminds me a little of UD "Smog" only lighter. Very pigmented
- Next up is another matte shade this time a lovely red brown shade a perfect crease shade and transition shade. Another very pigmented shade
- This shade is a stunning deep chocolate brown This has a slight red undertone to it. Stunning shade and one of my favourites very pigmented a little goes a long way
- Another dark brown this time with gold shimmers a beautiful pigment shade and perfect for a smokey eye look
Now for the 2 Row
- Another of my favourites I have to admit and as judy says a perfect romantic shade you are getting a beautiful satin gold with a slight pinky undertone and boy is this pigmented I love it I love how it compliments my eye colour and make the green in my eyes pop
- Oh boy this next shade is even more pigmented than the one before It is a stunning bronze this is more brown with gold running through a little goes a long way with this beauty
- When you look at the pan at this next shade you will automatically think wow a deep burgandy shade well in fact you are getting a a black with burgundy shimmer its beautiful and a perfect shade for night time looks. I did find you have to be careful when applying this shade as there is some fall out.
- Next shade I love Judy for doing this she added a beautiful blue toned purple for those days you want to add a pop of colour to your eyes. Purple is one of my favourite shades of eyeshadows as it compliments my hazel eyes :) :) This purple has a slight silver shimmer to it and very pigmented
- This next one is also for that pop of colour only this time its more blue with purple undertones. I love how the sunlight makes this shade stand out more :) Very pigmented
- Oh my gosh this colour is beautiful a deep royal blue that is hugely pigmented This shade a little tints of silver sparkles but gives a beautiful satin finish
The above swatches are made with no primer underneath. I wanted to do one of the looks Judy did herself on her channel using this palette i dont think I did a bad job of it lol Click on the photo for a closer look
As you can see yourself this palette is stunning. You have all the colours your need to make numerous looks for both day and night. I love that each eyeshadow is as pigmented as the other. They blend amazingly and need very little effort apply. With a primer they intensity of alot of these shades is amazing and wears all day long.
I am thrilled I have this palette in my collection as its now another favourite of mine and I will be stocking up before they run out.
