- Blackout (deep black - matte finish) Permanent
 
- Barlust (rich bronze - shimmery finish) New and exclusive!
 
- Rockstar (deep purple - shimmery finish) Permanent
 
- Evidence (deep navy blue - shimmery finish) Permanent

Swatches over Original Primer Potion (click to zoom)
(Note: The colors are actually even more vibrant in real life.)


 
This palette opens with a zipp and inside there is a mirror, ten eyeshadows and a full-size eyeliner. Perversion is a TRUE black (darker than Zero) and very creamy and easy to apply.
 
It also comes with a mini Primer Potion (in Original) that make your eyeshadows really more vibrant and a book with tutorials.

The eyeshadows range is very good and the new formula is awesome! They are very creamy, pigmented and easily blendable.
 
Maybe the only two that were slightly powdery were Kinky and Freestyle and the one that had a little less color payoff was Evidence so it needed a little more work.

Whether you’re a beginner or a professional, this kit is perfect for you! You can do lots of looks with it if you like to play with color, or even some a little more neutral. This palette is a good option and worth the price!
 
I think this is a good palette to combine, for instance, with the new Tango collection from Make Up For Ever! :)

    Tutorial - Smokey Eyes With Soft Pink Lips

    And the Look Of The Day Is:




    Smokey Eyes With Soft Pink Lips



    Tutorial:

    - Face -

    With Sigma's F80 brush, apply MUF HD Fundation all over the face.

    Conceal any spots you need using Sigma's concealer brush (F70).

    Using Sigma's large angled contour brush (F40), apply Art Deco Bronzer to define your cheekbones and give yourself a natural looking tan.

    With Sigma's duo fiber brush (F50), apply a bit of Nars Deep Throat blush to your cheeks to achieve a more natural, healthy look (maybe I applied so little it didn't show up... lol).


    - Eyes - 

    Prime your eyes with any primer (I used UD Primer Potion).
     
    With Sigma's eye shading brush (E55) apply Buck (Naked Palette) on 2/3 of your eyelid sweeping gently upwards to the crease. Blend the crease area with Sigma's Tapered blending brush (E40) - or you can use the blending side of the Naked 2 double-ended brush.

    Again with the shading and the blending brushes, apply a matte black eyeshadow like Artdeco 503 or Blackout (Naked 2 Palette) sweeping and blending the crease area very well.

    UsingSigma's short shader brush (E20) mix Buck and the black eyeshadow and smudge it along the same 2/3 of the bottom lash line to add more definition.

    With Sigma's pencil brush (E30) apply Half Baked (Naked Palette) to the inner corner of the eye, conecting and blending with Blackout on the lid and the lash line in order to highlight the eye.

    Now aplly Foxy (Naked 2 Palette) to your brow bone in order to highlight it and lift it.

    With UD 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Zero (if you have Perversion, EVEN BETTER! lol) apply it on the top lash line and create a cat eye look. Smudge it a bit if you want.

    Note: You can use a gel liner to achieve a more intense look (I LOVE Maybelline's gel liner and the brush it comes with is also very good, so it's a 2 in 1!) or even use something like MUFE Eye Seal (I love this product!) mixed with your black eyeshadow and apply it as a liner.


    Finally, aplly your favorite mascara (I used Maybelline Falsies) and apply false lashes if you like (I didn't, but you can do that).


    - Lips -

    Apply No7 Lips Liner in Nude and then a Bourjois lipgloss on top (I can't see the name because it's an old one, I'm sorry... but it's almost the same color as my lips).



    And..... 


    That's it! <3
    Hope you like it!  ;)
