Sephora Collection Midnight Wishes 16 eyeshadow palette 2018

How's your holiday shopping going? Mine has burst its limit with holiday sales and black friday sales. Its crazy! Offers are everywhere..only thing is that unfortunately, i have a limit. Haha. Boohoo

Seeing as i had a Sephora discount card of rm25 off on the Sephora collection i decided to place an order on this palette and the Sephora Glow foundation which i have not had much luck with the wear time of this. But any who, lets leave that for another blog post.










This palette is not a bad palette at all. It would be great for beginners and for those who want a simple no fuss not too pigmented palette for daily use. I for one am quite enjoying it. The shimmers are oh so pretty.  The matte are to my surprise pretty decent and have good color payoff. It may not swatch the best, but with brushesand fingers, the colors work well together and are easy to blend. 

The only draw back arr the three last colors which are patchy and dont have a ton of pigment. Other than that, i'm ok with this purchase. At Rm100 though, i wished that they cut this price down a notch. For those eyeing this palette,maybe get this during the sale if its still available.

Hourglass Unlocked Ambient Lighting Edit

Who here jumped with joy when Sephora Malaysia launched the new Hourglass Unlocked palette at an affordable pricetag of RM280? Me! I quickly sent the screenshot of this palette to my husband and to my utter surprise, he asked me if i wanted it and if i did, go ahead he would pay for it. My jaw dropped! Yippie! Thank you so much mr.Hubs.

Waited for a week for the order to arrive (psst i also bought the edit 4 palette too which i will review as well). Received it in a brand new Sephora box but to my shock, no bubblewrap! With my heart beating fast and furious, i looked out for any signs of dust(which usally means a broken palette) and thank goodness everything was in good condition. Thank you Sephora and Aramex. Hopefully they will bubblewrap the goods next time as they usually do in the past.

Opened the palette and ohh boy..its sooo pretty! Its my first ever Hourglass palette just so you know.














Let the pictures tell the story. I am in love. But i have to admit, the colors are a bit warm for me. Which the Edit 4 palette suits me better. I'm sure a lightbmedium, medium to tan skin would love this. The powders are super finely milled, gives the face an airbrushed effect and such a beautiful finish. Can't wait to see what they will come out with next year ❤ its currently sold out in Sephora Malaysia. But if i am not mistaken, i read someone comment that Sephora will be restocking this on the third week of November. 

Toodles!
