Review - Coastal Scents Revealed 2 Palette
11:47 AMWelcome to my first ever Buy it or Boo it!
The newest palette from Coastal Scents is the Revealed 2 palette. I've heard this was a dupe for Urban Decay Naked 3, but I don't own one to compare it to. However, I can still give you my opinion.
First off let me say it was very hard to swatch these! The pigment isn't that great, they kept flaking off and there was terrible fall out! Below are pictures the best I could do. I thought they looked truest to color in natural lighting so that is what I used - no photoshop, no artificial light - just the REAL SWATCHES!
top row - first 6 colors |
top row - last 4 colors |
I did these separately because they are my favorite 4 colors in this entire palette - although they do crumble and have fall out. I am partial to shimmery shades so I might be a bit biased, however the last 2 are dupes to several Urban Decay shadows.
bottom row - all 10 colors |
The verdict - buy it or boo it? BOO IT!
There are so many affordable neutral palettes out there where you get more bang for your buck! This is normally priced for $19.95. I purchased it on the release day so only spent $9.95. If you did want this palette (why, oh why?) then I'd wait until it was on sale again which happens all the time!
