UOMA Beauty Royal Heir-itage Eyeshadow Palette Review & Swatches

Royal Heir-itage

UOMA Beauty Royal Heir-itage Black Magic Color Palette ($44.00 for 0.42 oz.) is a new, limited edition palette that included five matte eyeshadows and five shimmer eyeshadows. The formula of the shimmery eyeshadows stood out to me as they were more emollient, almost cream-like, but the retained that slip when applied to skin, so it wasn’t a true cream-to-powder formula. They had a more intense shine, and while many were sparkly, there was very little fallout to worry over as the more emollient formula helped everything adhere to bare skin.

Ile Ife

Ile Ife is a light-medium peach with strong, warm undertones and a bright, sparkling metallic finish. It was richly pigmented with a cream-like texture that was smooth, thin (but not in a bad way), and felt emollient to the touch. The eyeshadow had great adhesion to bare skin, which ensured that those pretty sparkles didn’t get lost or dropped off the lid during application. It wore nicely for eight and a half hours before creasing.

Kush

Kush is a light-medium copper with moderate, warm undertones and a sparkling sheen. It had opaque color coverage paired with a smooth, almost cream-like texture that felt almost wet to the touch, but it was easy to pick up with a dry brush. This shade lasted well for eight hours before fading visibly.

Mali

Mali is a brighter, medium pink base that seemed slightly cooler-toned paired with a lot of warmer, peachy gold sparkle. It had semi-opaque, buildable color coverage with a particularly intense finish that was heavy on the sparkle, so it looked more opaque in practice (even if the base seemed sheerer). The texture was more cream-like, dense to the touch, but the actual product was thinner on my lid, though not in a bad way. It stayed on well for eight hours and a half hours with very minimal fallout over time.

Axum

Axum is a bright, medium gold with strong, warm undertones and an intense, metallic finish paired with faint sparkle. It had an almost wet-to-the-touch feel as it was silky and emollient to the touch, but it was thin and still felt and performed like a powder once it came into contact with my skin. It had rich color payoff that adhered evenly to bare skin and wasn’t prone to fallout. It wore well for eight and a half hours on me before creasing faintly.

Songhai

Songhai is a deep copper with moderate, warm undertones and a bright, metallic sheen. It had rich color coverage that adhered evenly to bare skin and blended out easily along the edges. The texture was lightly creamy, moderately dense but thin and easy to pick up with a brush, so it didn’t emphasize my lid texture. This shade lasted well for eight and a half hours before creasing slightly.
