Morphe 35f 

When you find an eyeshadow palette with pretty colours and a reasonable price tag you can presume it may not be great quality....
Morphe 35F is a palette which seems to be pretty popular amongst many bloggers so thought I would investigate this little gem. Morphe is a brand I would hear a lot from many well known Youtubers forever featuring in a favourites video, but like many great brands these were not available in the UK, until now. Morphe is available from www.cultbeauty.co.uk and www.beautybay.com.

Morphe 35f is very much what I would say an autumnal palette with red and brown shades, you can create so many stunning looks with all of these colours. This palette is so pretty, when it came I could not believe how stunning the shades were, you get 35 shades with a mixture of matte and metallic shades that feel like a pressed pigment. For £23.00 the quality is on par as MAC Cosmetics, the eyeshadows are creamy, easy to blend with no fall out. I have such a big wish list with this brand now.  
Have you ever tried Morphe?

Review: Zoeva Cocoa Blend Eyeshadow Palette

Zoeva is a beauty brand that consists of makeup brushes, palettes and much more. Zoeva is an affordable brand from Germany founded in 2008. I have always wanted to try a product from Zoeva not only for its quality but its price tag too!

For Christmas I was lucky to get the Zoeva Cocoa Blend Eyeshadow Palette, a palette of 10 beautiful shades, five mattes and five shimmer shades.

Mattes:

Bitter Start- a matte creamy white shade
Sweeter End- a taupe matte shade
Substitute For Love- a matte mocha shade with little chunks of glitter in
Freshly Toasted- a matte milk chocolate shade
Beans Are White- a matte black shade

Metallic/Shimmer-

Pure Ganache- a shimmery metallic gold shade
Warm Notes- a metallic burnt pink shade
Subtle Blend- a metallic shimmery brown shade
Infusion- a metallic grey with chunks of glitter
Delicate Acidity- a metallic heather shade

This palette has a perfect combination of shades and finishes, these shadows can create many looks for both day and night, this palette is now a firm favourite! My favourite shade has to be Warm Notes which is stunning with its beautiful shade of pink/red teamed with Freshly Toasted is amazing.

These eyeshadows are that creamy that when I swatched them and ended up ruining Warm Notes as went in too hard! Was so upset but have salvaged it! The pigmentation is fantastic, just one rub of the finger and the colour is shown not like some shadows where you have to rub over and over to get any colour to appear. The colours are not chalky and blend easily so is a palette easy to work with.

I truly adore this palette and the eyeshadows are simply stunning and for only £15.50 and is available on Beauty Bay.

Each shade is named after a Gwen Stefani song which I think is something I adore! Makes me want to put on her album! Each shade is pigmented and buttery, I adore the quality of this palette, and have managed to use the majority of the shades, its such a beautiful palette to play around with and is a must have for any beauty lover!
 
The packaging looks high end with its gold detailing, white background and black polkadot effect on the front. It has a magnetic closing mechanism which is a must have otherwise it can get pretty messy! The palette feels quite heavy but is handbag friendly in size.
 
I cant recommend this enough and am so pleased with the quality and packaging, it will be living on top on my dressing table!
 
Have you tried this?
