Anastasia Fall 2018 Collection features a new eyeshadow palette, Norvina, along with five new lip glosses, one new liquid lipstick, and three new liquid highlighters. All the new shades are limited edition per the brand’s customer service (I called and emailed). The collection launches July 29th online at Ulta (August 5th for stores), and then online at all other retailers on August 7th (in-stores August 17th). I’m working on testing everything as quickly as I can, so I ask for your patience as I work through my review process.

Exactly! They look like colourpop ‘s ultra glossy lip glosses but for the higher price I expect a little difference. They are pretty.

I received my Norvina palette in the mail yesterday and I am so excited to use it tomorrow! Your look is very beautiful, too, so I may just try my best to mimic it!

I do believe I am going to pass on everything else, though. I do like the Lip Gloss in Sunscape and could see myself picking that up if it ever goes on sale.

Soul is interesting but I have a similar color in the Nabla “Soul Blooming” palette, and the rest of the palette doesn’t seem unique. Are there a lot of similar shades in Soft Glam? I like about half and half shimmers and mattes, and these mattes aren’t my cup of tea. Thanks for the swatches, though; it helps me make a decision to go with Lorac’s Pro Palette 4 instead, and I really liked your review of that one. 😀

Hi,
I was wondering… Do you have buy the Nabla palette on the website or something else? It seem pricy on the website!?
Thank you,
Virginia

It’s an Italian brand that as far as I know is not sold in the U.S., so I bought it from their web site. Shipping was fast and well-packed. I hope they get a U.S. distributor.

The more swatches I see of the palette, the less I want it 🙁 When I first laid eyes on it I was 100% sure I’d get it! Now I think I’ll pass. It’s not quite as unique as I first anticipated. Still beautiful, but I won’t but it just for 3 or 4 shades.

Lea Avatar

I’m still not sure. I hardly reach for my ABH shadows. They’re more dusty than my other shadows, so I seems to skip over them on favor of others and I still really dislike that orangey shade sticking out like a sore thumb. I wish ABH would stop insisting that type of shade must be included regardless of the larger scheme.

Those glosses look atrocious! Oddly chunky looking without actually doing anything of value to the lips. No thank you. I’m far too fair for the highlighters, but I’m sure they’ll work on medium to deep complexions.

Lea Avatar

I do!! I’m strongly considering picking up the mini Lila when that launches too, even though I’m unlikely to get any real use out of the blurple glittery shade.

Lea Avatar

We share the same name and also the same opinions on this palette! The last two matte shades–the orange and the maroon–just kill it for me. If they had turned those into cool shades (maybe a light taupey mauve and a deep eggplant?) I would be totally on board.

Lea Avatar

Soul is the only unique shade I’m seeing here. I wish this palette was cooler-toned, I’d be much more tempted. I’m still waiting for a brand to put out a cool toned wearable neutral and purple palette!

Sue Avatar

Yes, when the first promo pix came out, people were saying, “It’s so purple!,” but it really isn’t. A few purplish shades but so many warm neutrals and golds (again). I think the lavender packaging fooled a lot of eyes.

Jess Avatar

My brother’s girls are named Luna and Freya. What a coincidence lol. Besides that, Soul looks really nice. I expect it to be patchy but these swatches look so warm. I thought it looked cooler in the promo pics. I cant wear warm shadows. Another pallette I wont buy.

Michelle Avatar

I have Huda Desert Dusk and I love it but I still really want this. ?? my friends all say it should be named Michelle because it’s so me.

This palette looks really good to me! I dont own any ABH palettes, so I think I will pick it up, your swatches look good. The glosses will be a pass for me, they all look exactly the same once applied. The violet liquid lipstick is a really unique colour, but it looks super-drying, so I’m in the fence about it. Looking forward to your reviews in this collection.

This will be a tough decision on the palette. Suspect if there’s a decent single dupe for Soul, I could forego this. (Or wait for CP to dupe it…all you have to do is wait…). I really like a few others, even Eccentric, which I agree is a bit jarring here and almost cliche ABH. If you play the ‘cover up the accent shades,’ it seems this palette is like most of the warm neutrals out there. Vaguely disappointing, as kind of thought it might be groundbreaking. And as to the rest, abh ll is not my love match. There’s a reason I only have one. The glosses are very one note, and the HL would be a hl-blush on me, and think i’m covered. I vote with Debbie Downer on this collection.

Rebecca Avatar

None of the eyeshadow shades thrill me EXCEPT for Soul. If they eventually sell it as a single I will buy 2 so I’m sure to never run out.

Cjay Avatar

Idk on first glance I thought, this is every palette being released right now. But then on second look later, I thought, this is really super pretty and a few colors I have run out of in other palettes so I want it. But I’m sortof on a no-buy right now – only getting basics like foundation, etc as me and my husband are trying to save money for, you know, vacations and retirement and those sorts of things. If it’s around toward the end of the year, maybe I’ll buy it. I wish I could pick out about 6-8 of the shades and just buy those alone. There are some definite throwaways here for me.

Christine Avatar

Hi Christine,
Thank you for your swatches 😉 I had ordered it on the ABH UK site and received it last thursday so I did my makeup with it yesterday 😉 I’ve tried Love, Wild child, Celestial and Drama 😉 Mattes are powdery , but it’s ABH, it’s “normal”, shimmers are buttery, so pigmented… I thought it would be a more purplely palette but it is not , it’s very neutral with some pop of purplely colours, but I like that… I love ABH palettes except the Subculture which is beautiful but so hard to use …

Mariella Avatar

I’ll be eager to see your review and ratings of the e/s palette. In spite of a few colours that are ugly on me (pink, pink, orange, orange), there are several that look gorgeous. The look of the textures of some of them seem like they could be great (like Pink Champagne) or at the opposite end of the spectrum (loosely packed, falling apart-type glitter pans). I thought the highlighters were cream eyeshadows when I first looked at them!

I bought the Norvina palette at BeautyCon LA last weekend – they had a pre-sale at their booth there before the official launch date – so I’ve been playing with it for about a week. It’s definitely a lot less purple than I anticipated from their sneak peeks and the way they marketed it, which I think will be a disappointment for some.
It’s my first ABH palette, because it’s the first time the color story speaks to me. I don’t regret buying it to finally try the brand’s shadow formula, which I find very powder for the mattes, and thick and prone to fallout for the shimmers, although both are very pigmented.
However I think they could have done something much more interesting and unique by removing some of the classic warm shades and replacing them with cool-toned shades: Dazzling is the exact color you get when mixing Summer and Rose Gold! They could have included a gorgeous “blurple” shimmer instead. Eccentric is way too warm to pair well with the rest of the palette, they could have included either a pale lilac or a deep cool-toned purple. The list goes on.
I think ABH missed the opportunity to show that they are truly a trend-setting brand that can explore and commit to unique color stories (unique for our current time, obviously purple palettes have been done before). I feel like they showed us that side with the Subculture, but then switched back to playing it safe with the Soft Glam and now Norvina. Even the palette names aren’t quite as good!

AB Avatar

Honestly, the palette is an easy pass for me. I’m warm toned so several shades wouldn’t work for me, and for those that would I’m already covered. I have all the sparkly glosses I need a few times over. I”m interested to see how the highlighters do.

Lea Avatar

I just found a good example of what I thought this was going to be: the Revolution Beauty Re-Loaded palette in ‘Visionary’. Cool toned neutrals and purples. I actually prefer it to Norvina and suggest it to someone looking for a cooler version of this. Most definitely the quality won’t be as good as ABH’s will be, but I guess it’s the price we pay!

Dolores Avatar

Definitely ‘no’ on the glosses and purple matte lipstick. Used to love ABH matte lipsticks, but there are so many better options out now on the market. Alot of their matte lipsticks are thick and do not dry down. Prefer a thinner matte lipstick now and a more comfortable one.
Did pick up the palette and I like it, but don’t think I love it. I see the similarities to the Soft Glam palette.

Jessica Avatar

The shimmers in this are tempting me the most, even with the neutral shades. But I get frustrated with brands that just cannot seem to pull the trigger on a complete cool toned palette. The last two matte shades are so disappointing to me. Why must every ABH palette have a burgundy color? And the yellow/brown shade is so out of place with the color story!
