Huda Beauty Eyeshadow Palette Huda Beauty - Rose Quartz Eyeshadow Palette

I purchased a set with other products including this Huda Beauty eyeshadow palette. This was my second Huda Beauty eyeshadow and my goodness it did not disappoint. I’ve found that the shadows are not chalky at all and blend rather easily. I use a shadow base with all eyeshadows, but the way these shadows blended on top of it was phenomenal!

I love this palette it's got a stunning colour story. The shadow is great to work with, buttery and creamy shades. Blend very well. You can use a brush or fingers. I like to use a brush personally and use fingers for the pop colours. Don't give much kick back at all. Highly recommended as it's Very pigmented too

Huda has launched a plenty of different palettes in the past, all of them were very warm: pinks and warm toned browns - that’s it. So I was very excited to get Rose Quartz palette last year during sales. It’s safe to say that now, after using this palette on and off for a year, I’m ready to share my extended thoughts on it. Let’s start off with the packaging. I find the design pretty - it imitates the crystal its named after and is the prettiest amongst other big palettes by huda. Unfortunately, the writing began to fade after a week or so. It’s not terrible, but I though it was worth mentioning it. When it comes to the eyeshadows themselves, I think it’s a nice mix of shades and textures. Cool toned pinks and browns, slightly warm/neutral browns, classic satins, extra sparkly shades (just like the indie brands do it) and of course mattes. My favorite shades would be: moon magic, blissful, cosmic love, energized, joy and serenity. Least favorite is love stone - it’s these weird pigment balls encapsulated in gel. Absolutely pointless, in my opinion. The other shades perform great. They might crease a bit after long hours of wear time but all the eyeshadows do on me, so I’d say it’s pretty normal. I like applying mattes with a brush and shimmers with my finger. In my opinion, it’s the best way to make them really pop. I prefer that method over using a wet brush. The only dark shimmer in the palette - empowered - does fall out quite a bit, so it’s best to do your eye makeup first, clean up the fallouts and apply complexion products after. I’m giving this palette 5 stars because it combines a few aspects: - it works very well for the everyday makeup looks - there’s space for creativity - some of the shimmers have the indie brands quality (clionadh, glamshop, etc. ) - it has a sophisticated colour scheme (I’m so over the brown/orange/pink palettes) Luckily the brand is widely accessible, so you can always go to the store and see for yourself :)
