Hello my lovely readers, how is everyone's morning going? I'm sorry i didn't blog last weekend I just lost track of the days and before I knew it, it was already Monday. Oops! But don't worry I have lots of blogs lined up for the next couple of weeks.
Today's blog will be a review on the Smashbox Full Exposure Palette. I was extremely lucky to be given this as a gift from my brothers girlfriend, Abi. I have used it a few times and every time I have loved it.
So lets start with the packaging. I love it. It is so simply but very effective. The matte black of the overall case gives it a very sophisticated look and then the writing is in a beautiful metallic material that changes color as you move the case around. The overall look of the palette is just gorgeous and without even looking at the colors inside I knew I needed it.
Then once you look inside, you see that the packaging is only a small part of how amazing the palette is. Firstly, the mix of matte and shimmer shades are perfect. They are beautiful colors and they are great for many different eye looks that you may want to do. I have used it to do brown smoky eyes with a beautiful golden shimmer and lots of others. The shades are very pigmented and very easy to blend together. The palette comes with a beautiful brush which is two sides. One a beautiful blending brush and the other for the shimmer shades.
The blending brush. A dome shaped brush which is perfect for blending the matted shades out and works really well for applying all the shades.
The shimmer brush is a much shorter brush but is perfect for applying the shimmer shade because it helps it to stick onto the matte shades. The shimmer shade doesn't fall off of your eyelid which I find happens with other cheaper palettes.
These are the swatches from the 6 matte shades in the palette. All of the shades are very pigmented and they blend out very easily. The shades go from dark brown to light cremes to a black. The amount of different colors is great for all different makeup looks. They work really well for everyday and nights out. I use the matte shade mostly for everyday makeup looks because they are more subtle.
These are the swatches from the 6 shimmer shades in the palette. They are all very pigmented and they are not extremely glittery but when they are, you can get glitter around the eye which can make it look un-neat so to have shades that aren't too glittery but still have a large amount of shimmer in them are perfect for me.
Thank you very much for reading my blog, I hope that you enjoyed it. I would definitely recommend this palette to you if you have the opportunity to get it. It is perfect for everyday looks and looks for nights out. The cost for this palette is £37 which I think is great for the quality and amazing shades that you get.
I hope you enjoyed reading my blog and please keep reading and please share because it would mean a lot to me.
Love you all <3
Perfect and Sweet <3
