Urban Decay Jean Michel Basquiat Palettes

A while ago Urban Decay released a collection themed on artist Jean Michel Basquiat. The collection features two eyeshadow palettes, blusher palette, lipsticks and more. I stopped by at the Urban Decay counter and noticed the collection which looked awesome. I love my eyeshadows so when I saw the two palettes I got really excited and decided to get both.

There are two different palettes - Gold Griot, which features more neutral shades and the Tenant palette which has more bright colors. Both have this really awesome artwork on them. 



Tenant


Gold Griot

Both palettes are amazing and are well pigmented. I didn't need to put a lot of color on my brush to get the color to stand out and they all blended well together too. Out of the two I like the Tenant palette best as I love my bright colors. Although many people will love the neutrals of Gold Griot.

Urban Decay still have these palettes left, so if you want to get one, there are some available.

Huda Beauty Summer Highlighter Palette

Highlighters are my favorite product right now and I really like it when I see different brands bringing out a palette with different highlighter shades. When I was shopping in Harrods I stopped by at the Huda Beauty counter and noticed that they did a highlighter palette.

I have only tried Huda's liquid lipsticks and think they are amazing, so I was expecting their palettes to be great too. They really don't disappoint and there are a few to choose from. I went for the Summer Highlighter Palette which has 4 amazing shades in. The pink purple shade really caught my eye, which is why I went for this palette.


 
All of the colors in this palette are powders with the exception of Saint Tropez which is a cream. The idea of this is you apply Saint Tropez first and then layer the other shades on top. Although the colors can be worn separately too, either way they look amazing.

Mykonos is the color that really stood out to me, it's this amazing purple color but you do have to be careful applying it. I got a bit too brush happy and applied too much. It's so pigmented it could actually be worn as a blusher color too. With this palette, a little color does go a really long way.

The colors look amazing in the palette and they look amazing on too. I just love it and do want to check out the other palettes Huda does.
