Review: Revolution Reloaded Iconic Division Palette

Hi loves, hope you are all doing well and staying safe. Today's blog post is on Revolution Reloaded Iconic Division Palette (15x1.1g, 5.99€). I picked up my palette from Kruidvat.

The palette comes in a plastic packaging and has a clear lid, so I can see all the shades, which I do like. The palette itself is sleek, which makes it good for traveling. It contains 12 matte eyeshadows and 3 shimmery/metallic eyeshadows.

The overall quality of the palette is good, considering its only 6 euros. The pigmentation of the the mattes is good, but some of the shimmers are lacking. The formula of the mattes is powdery and when blending these shades I do need to be carful not to blend the shadows away. I also have a bone to pick with the green shades. I love green eyeshadow, but these look so similar when swatched (you can see it for yourself down below). That was little disappointing.

Up you can see the swatches of row 1 (on the left) and row 3 (on the right). The first row has some transition shades and 2 shimmers. The first one is so disappointing, but the bronze is very pigmented and also looks on eyes like that.

The second row is bit better, except for the pale shimmery golden green, which was one of the reasons I bought this palette. It's the most disappointing shades in this palette. It a toppers shade and I hoped for something metallic and amazing. Usually their metallics have good quality.

On the left you can see the 3rd row swatched, which is my favorite. It's the perfect autumn color story and I enjoy matte eyeshadows so much. I love the yellows and the green (even though it's so similar to the one on the first row). The only shade here that is lacking in my oppinion is the black (first shade on the right). Others look beautiful and I have enjoyed playing with.

Overall I like this palette. I like the color story and I love wearing it this time of the year. It's not a perfect palette, but the price point was so little, that I can't really complain about it. I find it hard to deepen the look, because the shadows blend into nothingness so easily.

Down below you find the demo part of this review and I did palette bingo, which I haven't done the longest time. I really liked how it came out. I hope you enjoy the video and go subscribe to my channel :)
