Must Haves: Coastal Scents 26 Shadow Blush Palette!

Must Have Palette!

Happy New Year everyone!! I'm so excited for this new chapter in life!! 

Here's my first review of the year :-)

Who said quality has to be expensive? ;-) Today I have a super affordable palette from the Coastal Scents that is high up there in quality but not in price! It's called the 26 Shadow Blush Palette and it retails for only $14.95... amazing price! I've had it for about a month now and I love it! For days that I don't want to think about my makeup too much I reach for this because the colors are so wearable! It's a great everyday palette full of gorgeous warm shades.

The packaging is very simplistic yet sleek. It doesn't have a mirror which is a bummer but other than that it's great!

Let's talk about the color selection, simply amazing! I tend to gravitate towards warmer shades and this palette is perfect for me. All the golden shades and those cranberries... to die for. The shadows are so smooth and pigmented with no fall out. The blushes are so pretty too, easy to blend and the shades are stunning. Here are the swatches by row :-)

That copper shade has my name written all over it haha. I love the mauve shade to the left of it to place in the crease.

The last two shades in this row are great in the outer corner!

Another amazing rose-copper metallic that I melt for! The plum shade is also gorgeous for a smokey eye! The taupe at the end is also really pretty all over the lid!

The range of blushes is great, no complaints! The colors are so versatile and the most ideal colors for these shadows. My favorite has to be the shimmer rose-gold one towards the end, it looks amazing on the cheeks and makes them pop! I also really enjoy how universal this palette is! I'm more light-medium skintone... currently pale because it's winter haha. I used this palette on one of my best friends that has a darker skintone than me and it looked outstanding on her! Here's what it looked like:

PS: I wish my friends would visit me more often (or move...lol) so I could do their makeup everyday! haha. 

Bottom line: I'm sure you can tell how much I adore this palette so I definitely recommend it! The price is awesome plus Coastal Scents tends to have sales every now and then so make sure to sign up for their email alerts to catch it on sale. The combo of shadows and blushes was well selected and it's such a great idea to have them together in a palette. They made it easy for us when creating this palette and I'm a huge fan! :-)
