Purple has been a popular color this year and I picked up the Revolution BeautyVisionary Reeloaded palette. The Re-loaded palettes have been a little hit or miss for me, some I've loved and others I thought were just okay. Going into this palette I didn't know what to expect, I'm not a huge purple eyeshadow fan but I wanted to try it.
This palette fell flat for me. I would have to say it's my least favourite Re-loaded palette that I have tried. Many of the brown shades are so subtly different that I don't see the reason why they're all in the palette. The mattes themselves are all neutral brown. There's one purple matte and the rest are all brown. As for shimmer shades, there's 3. I always wear a shimmery lid, and this palette doesn't give me a lot of versatility.
As for pigmentation, I don't find these shades to be very pigmented. If you're looking at this palette as an alternative to the Norvina palette, I would tell you to keep looking. I wouldn't recommend this one. This palette is very affordable, but at the same time, I have other Re-loaded palettes that I absolutely love and know what Revolution Beauty is capable of releasing. Their Velvet Rose palette is my absolute favourite, you can read my review here. The Newtrals 3 (review) is another one I love, especially for the fall. I would tell you to pass on the Visionary, but don't pass on the Reloaded palettes in general. Some of them are really good, and not just because of them being affordable.
Update: I've had a change of heart on this palette. Since I've been using some denser brushes (Real Techniques Dome Crease) I have a much easier time using this palette. Purples would intimidate me but it's all about finding your techniques. At this time, I don't have any issues blending and building these shadows. I really do enjoy this palette.

Bummer when a palette doesn't work out! Especially since Revolution Beauty have so many great palettes in general.

It's a shame that it's so disappointing! x
ReplyDeletePurples and neutrals are more my colours than browns so it would probably suit me. I'm sorry this wasn't one of your favourites but thank you for the review!
