![]() They don't pick up very well with brushes, and I've tried everything from duo-fibre to fluffy to flat eyeshadow brushes! However, if you're willing to use your fingers, the pigmentation is just incredible and I love the metallic finish. What some people don't like about these shadows is that you do really have to use your fingers with them. What you might be able to see is that, as you use these, unfortunately the eyeshadow dips slightly in the centre these shades actually use a different pan to the mattes and the standard shimmer in here, perhaps to secure this formula in there. The real discussion has been around the metallics. ![]() ![]() There's also one 'normal' shimmer in here which can easily be applied with a brush and has a pigmented, soft, sheeny finish. I know a lot of people still don't like this palette, however I do and I'll tell you why! The mattes aren't really the divisive part of this palette they're very creamy, I find they blend out easily and even the brighter colours go on opaquely and are effortless to work with. I actually never tried the original Rose Gold palette (Huda's first attempt at eyeshadow) because it had some quite mixed reviews, so I can't directly compare the two. FORMULAS - We'll start with the Rose Gold Remastered palette. I also like that the names are printed under each shade, as it really annoys me when they're just on a flimsy insert! There's also a nice, big mirror in each of these palettes, which is handy. I like that they have the designs on the front and you also get them in these little inserts that come inside. The palettes are made of cardboard but do feel really sturdy and I've never had any issues travelling with them. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt here because (as we'll get into) the formulas are definitely different across the palettes, so perhaps the different ingredients have different costings but they wanted to keep a consistent format and price across the range. The shelf-life on all of these is labelled as 12 months, however (like many other makeup-lovers) I'm hygienic with my eyeshadows, so use my discretion on that one.ĭespite the fact they all come in at the same price-point, the amount of product in these palettes actually varies wildly! Rose Gold Remastered contains just 16.6g of product whereas the Desert Dusk comes in at a whopping 25.2g and the New Nude is in-between at 19.7g. BACKGROUND & PRODUCT DETAILS - The Huda Beauty palettes retail for £56 each and you have: the Rose Gold Remastered* (a controversial reformulation of her original Rose Gold palette), the Desert Dusk and the New Nude. Hopefully, if you've had your eye on these palettes but you weren't sure which one you'd get the most use out of, this post will help make up your mind! Let's face it: Huda Beauty palettes are not cheap! I'm lucky enough to have got my hands on all three of the current full-sized palettes, so today I wanted to do a comparison of them and talk about the formulas and application techniques I use, as well as running through the colour schemes and swatches.
