Huda Beauty Empowered Eyeshadow Palette Review & Swatches

Christine — Fri, 28 Oct 2022 21:00:00 +0000

Empowered

Huda Beauty Empowered Eyeshadow Palette ($67.00 for 0.59 oz.) is the brand’s newest 18-pan palette that included two cream-based shades with the rest as powders. The shimmers were a bit thicker and moderately emollient, and I liked them on their own but didn’t feel like they always combined as well with the matte formula, which was thinner and lightly to moderately powdery. I think Huda’s matte eyeshadow formula works well for someone who prefers more buildable coverage and always uses an eyeshadow primer for their looks.

Purpose

Purpose is a soft black with a semi-matte finish. It was a cream-based eyeshadow within a palette full of mostly powder eyeshadows. It didn’t fully dry down for me, so while it worked as a tacky base for the powder eyeshadows in the palette, it tended to result in creasing faster.

Semi-opaque color coverage
Lightly tacky, moderately emollient
Did not fully dry down
Prone to creasing (5-6 hours on its own, 6-7 hours with powder on top)
