Morphe 35P (Plum) Eyeshadow Palette

I've been meaning to write up this review since October when I bought this palette. But I figured what better way to come back from a slump than finishing up old things? I finished up my "hair journey" posts, and this one was just floating around. I also didn't get around to playing with this palette until last month.

I know that the Internet has been thoroughly obsessed with the Morphe 35O palette, but I don't see much about the it's purple sister. I'm not huge on orange, and I only really do warm tones once in a while. But give me some purple and I go crazy! I love the color purple, especially when it's cool toned and pigmented. I can't tell you how many purple eyeshadows I've bought in the past that were of inferior quality in texture, pigment, and price.

Now, I know how much people have hyped up Morphe and the 35O palette, and I can tell you, the hype is well deserved. These shadows are pigmented, the texture is lovely though there are a couple that's a little iffy but still workable, and it's affordable! One thing I love about this palette is that you can go all out and BAM! Purple! In your face! or cool-toned neutrals with a slight purple undertone. You can do pops of color, halo eyes, smokey, anything! This palette will serve any purple desire you have, and I love it. I would definitely recommend it for anyone who is a makeup enthusiast, or a lover of purple.

Better Late than Never

I finally ordered myself the Sleek "Vintage Romance" palette and blush!! And my, oh my - it's SO PRETTY!
As promised, here's my swatchy swatchy :)


So far I haven't used very many of these eye shadows. I've only used Court in Cannes, Lust in L.A., and Love in London. Those three mixed together made a really lovely bronzed smokey look. I was really impressed with it, and I can't wait to use more! I'm especially in love with that cranberry color that is Honeymoon in Hollywood! I was also pleasantly surprised that Forever in Florence was a beautiful purple shade!

This is the blush in the shade "Antique"

My only dislike with this is the glitter. I haven't tried it on my cheeks yet, but it IS a beautiful color. I'm just not too sure about the glitter. We shall see.
