WarPaint Cosmetics: Smokin' Palette review

Hi everyone!

I've been hunting around for a brand new eyeshadow palette for a while now - my Revlon palette is getting a little worn now and I wanted to try out some new shades. As you may know, I'm a fan of Nina Nesbitt, and when she posted this on Instagram

I couldn't resist to look into the palette in which she was promoting! 

Overview:

Warpaint Cosmetics is an animal cruelty free brand and do a range of products on their site. What pulled me was that they didn't test on animals - I try my best now to avoid buying any range of products that have been tested on animals as I don't want to feel awful when using them!

My main concern was maybe the quality of this product won't be as good as other high end products as the price of this palette was reasonably cheap. It costs £9.95 + £1.50* delivery charge (depending on the delivery service!) Delivery was quick and arrived at my house within 2 days.

Positives:

Firstly, I am in LOVE with the packaging of this palette. It's metallic look stands out from the rest of my other palettes which is a really nice change against the usual browns & black palettes that I own.

The pigmentation of the shades are fantastic! I've had to blend the shadows out so much to soften the look as they stand out so much. No primer is needed to keep the shades on all day (or night) and they're easy to blend out just as well.

The eyeshadow range is a mix of matte and shimmery shades - which are both key for a smokey eye look and I can't wait to test these shades on a night out soon!

Negatives:

Sadly, there is no mirror in the top half of the palette which means if you're taking this palette out and about - you're going to need an extra mirror lying around. The double headed eyeshadow applicator which comes with the palette isn't great either. The blending brush is a little to small for my liking and I rarely go near the tiny sponges to apply my makeup.

Other than that, I think this product is brilliant and I will be buying more things from their range soon!

​See you in the next blog post,
