H&M NEW MAKEUP LINE - EYE COLOUR PALETTE REVIEW

H&M recently launched their re-vamped beauty collection. With everything from hair products, makeup and nail polish in chic and sleek packaging, how could I not pick something up? I chose one of the Eye Colour Palettes in Super Naturals. The palette have a nice autumnal color range with greens, browns and greys to create the perfect autumn eye! There are a lot of other eye palettes in the collection, many of them are very natural with nice beige and browns. I have so many natural palettes, though. Also I have been on the hunt for a nice cameo palette due to the recent trend reports (the military eyes are a definite go!) Still, it was difficult to walk out with only one, let me tell you...

I gave the palette a go this morning, without primer underneath. There was quite a bit of fall out when I picked up the shades with my flat brush. I tapped of the excess before i put the shades on my eye and that resulted in zero fall out on my face! Fall out is pretty much inevitable when it comes to pressed powders. So far so good! The shades blended well. I only used the white, the greens and the browns to create todays look. I would have loved to see more matte shades in the palette. There are only three mattes! The white, the grey and the black. It would have been perfect if one of the browns were matte as well.
The pigmentation of the shadows are okay. I didn't want a full on look today as I am going to work soon, so I blended in the shadows a lot. However, with primer and good will these shadows would probably be able to pack a good pigment punch.

If you want to try some colors that you haven't tried before, are on a budget but looking for something sleek to put in your makeup bag or follow the latest trend, then pick up this palette! If you already have something similar, pass.

6/10 for putting some greens in to a palette, H&M! Please give us some more mattes next time.
