Jaclyn Hill Favorites Palette by Morphe Brushes. Did you guys get caught up in the craze too? The day Jaclyn Hill broke the internet. It was nuts. On New Years Eve, I went online before the release time at midnight, and the Morphe site was already crashing. 5 million refreshes and 24 hours later, I was able to shove my order through the system. Now that this little beauty is here, do I think it was worth it?
Morphe Brushes is known for their affordable but great quality makeup brushes, but they also make really great eyeshadows as well, for $2 each. The Jaclyn Hill Favorites palette holds 28 eyeshadows for $27.99. Dollar shadows, you guys. You can't beat that. BUT WAIT! Are they any good?
JACLYN HILL FAVORITES EYESHADOW PALETTE
The packaging is nothing special - thin plastic case, similar to BH Cosmetics and Coastal Scents palettes. The shades though! Perfect for any neutral lover, and I love that there are a few pops of color and different finishes.
Can we talk about buttery smooth?!?! I'm in LOVE. The pigmentation of these shadows is so good, and the formula is on point. The matte shades are typical of any other matte shadows - good quality ones, and I'm not complaining. Some of the lighter shades don't show up very well on camera, but trust me, they are gorgeous! My favorite shades are ES11, ES48, ES19, ES68, and ES74!
Ok so here's the bad news - this palette is extremely limited edition. Morphe released the palette on New Years Day, and it was on sale until it sold out. Since their site was hacked, and the internet practically broke for a day, they decided that they will be re-releasing the palette once again. However, there is no definite date as to when that will happen. Check back on their site for updates, if you're still interested in picking this up. If for some reason, you can't get your hands on the palette, I've included the shade names along with each swatch - you could build the palette yourself! Just a suggestion. I would I almost did just that. It would cost double the price, but I think $2 for an eyeshadow is definitely a steal.
So was it worth it? It was. I really love this palette, and I'm very impressed with the quality of the eyeshadows. Impressed enough to give a couple of them away. One here on the blog - the other one is still a mystery. :)
