We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when
a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set
expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up
being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

Very excited you are reviewing these palettes! Read a lot about them.
Masquerade has some seriously brilliant and uber pigmented bright pops of color! Wow!
Saharan is also a beauty with a few rather unique and interesting shades.
That said, I really would love it if the brand offered single pans that one could build their own palette with. Only because I’m seeing dupes galore of shades I already have, yet other shades that are quite different or just plain better than anything else I have!
Again, some of the mattes look dry and dusty but the shimmers are fabulous. Great range of shades.

I agree with you Nancy T. Wish they sold eyeshadow singles. I am really digging Wodaabe and Bororo. Like nothing else in my stash. Could probably dupe but that gold color is absolutely gorgeous if I do say so myself. I’m forever on the hunt for my “perfect HG gold eyeshadow” this one looks like it could be the one. *rubs hands together* Wodaabe…someday you will be mine!

Noticing the ingredients in the Saharan is different to the masquerade. I love the masquerade and I hope the formula isn’t too different, unless it’s for the better. Thanks for the swatches!
I have the Masquerade (Mini) Palette and absolutely love it. I’m so happy to see your swatches of their other palettes. I love that the warm Saharan palette including an icy, slivery-blue in it. Genius!
I have both of these and they are totally amazing. The formula is very creamy and the pinks, reds, plums and oranges are unique and wild. Definitely the type of palettes where your mind starts imaging combinations as soon as you open it. I love the names and the art, too.

Really like The Saharan.

Anyone have a comment on how these perform? The mattes don’t swatch as well as the shimmers but how do these all apply?
This brand seems to struggle with mattes, but other than that they look good!
