Hi Beauties!
It’s been a while! I have a serious problem starting posts, getting distracted with life, and not finishing them. (Seriously... you should see my notes on my phone.) I’m working on it though!
A couple months ago I got the Huda Beauty Mercury Retrograde palette. As soon as I saw the previews for it, I knew I had to have it. I got it and wanted to use it at least a few times before I wrote a review for it. A few times turned into using it daily, and here we are.
Here’s what the Huda Beauty website says about the Mercury Retrograde palette:
The carefully-curated palette is filled with easy-to-use combinations—from dusty coppers, rosy pinks, golden taupe tones with pops of purple and blue. The palette features a cosmic blend of whimsical fantasy like shades, balancing cool and warm tones to complement the best of the intergalactic world.
Featuring 9 buttery mattes, 6 high-shine creamy metallics saturated with electrifying pearls, 1 glitter powder charged with glass pearls and silver sparkles and 2 sheer multi-reflective shadows for a multidimensional glow.
The Huda Beauty Mercury Retrograde palette retails for $67.00.
Guys... I have never been this impressed with a palette in my life!! Before anything else, I need to mention the packaging. It is so beautiful! I love the packaging almost as much as the product itself!
You can do an infinite amount of looks with just this palette. Not only are the shades absolutely stunning, but there are also so many different TYPES of shades. The pigmentation is absolutely amazing. I swear this palette is going to last forever because I’ve been using it daily and there is barely a dent in any of the shades... even the ones I use the most. The glitters are beautiful. Nebula is one of my absolute favorite shades and for a pressed glitter the quality is amazing. It sticks to my lids all day with minimal fallout. All of the shades are super buttery, easily blendable, and very easy to work with whether you’re a beginner or more advanced.
I’m really impressed with the quality of this palette and can’t say enough good things about it. I absolutely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a super versatile palette that you’ll get your money’s worth out of.
