Benefit's Neutral Palette

Hello my berries,

I'd quickly like to apologise for my absence, as I was taking my GCSE'S, but luckily the summer holidays have started for me and I am now going to be a committed blogger!
It was my birthday last week and my friend Flora got me the Benefit Neutrals Palette, which was so incredibly thoughtful of her considering I am an eyeshadow maniac. From the minute I set my eyes on this palette I knew that I was going to love it, their aren't any bad shades in the palette and they are a dream for everyday. The shadows are buttery and easy to blend and have barely any fall out. The pigmentation is also amazing, they aren't as pigmented as the Naked palette shadows but they still have great colour pay off and look beautiful on the eyes. I also find the palette is particularly good for my blue eyes as they are bronzy and gold, which really brings out my eye colour.

The packaging is also cute and lovely as Benefit products usually are, they have an old fashioned feel about them which I adore, and I think they just look very pretty. My only complaint would be that the box is quite bulky and thick, the shadows are in a cardboard case within the box, which takes up unnecessary space, I think they could have made it more compact.

My Two Cents, Birthday Suit, Call My Buff, Kiss Me I'm Tipsy, It's Complicated, Gilt-y Pleasure

This brand is also the first that I've seen that have a mixture of both cream and powder eyeshadows. The cream shadows are the first two swatched, and they can be used as eyeshadow bases to improve the wear of the other shadows, or as a simple wash of colour over the eyelid. I think this palette would be great for beginners as the colours aren't overly pigmented and really easy to work with, the palette also comes with a little sheet which shows you how to create different looks with the eyeshadows, I also think this would be very helpful!

See you soon
