Morphe 35T Taupe Eyeshadow Palette | First impressions

Hey!

This Morphe 35T palette has got to be one of the best eyeshadow palettes I’ve tried and at such an affordable price, it’s a steal! The range of colours are stunning and with 35 shades you can really mix it up with the variety of looks you’re going for. In the Dubai Sephora, I finally picked up the TooFaced Shadow Insurance and I can’t believe I hadn’t used this earlier! I’ve never really been a daily eyeshadow wearer but this eyeshadow primer has now found itself a permanent place in my everyday makeup routine! And paired with the shades from this palette you can create a natural everyday look or a more glam evening look – it doesn’t move for the whole day!

The brand

The U.S. make up brand Morphe Brushes have started to make their mark on the YouTube beauty-sphere, more commonly known for their extensive line of synthetic yet affordable make up brushes, giving some of the higher end brands like MAC and Sigma a good run for their money. As with their brushes, their eyeshadow palettes are becoming more and more popular, with the limited edition Jaclyn Hill palette being a cult favourite.


 

The colours

This 35T palette takes the signature naked eye to the next dimension! It includes 35 shades ranging from neutral, taupe, metallic coppers, brick red shades and more golden and bronze shimmer shades. I have to say, I was a little disappointed by the lack of matte transitional shades to create a complete look. I’d say to pair this palette with a matte palette like the Urban Decay NAKED Basics or theBalm Meet Matt(e) Nude for an extra variety of shades to create more dimension.


 

The formula

The application of these shadows are smooth and highly pigmented however I would say the mattes are a little more difficult to build than the shimmers.

The price of this palette is so impressive, I bought this palette on BeautyBay.com and it retails for £18.25!
