Coastal Scents Revealed 2 Palette, Swatches And Review

There was another treasure in my April Boxycharm Box last month... The Coastal Scents Revealed 2 Palette! I really loved the first Coastal Scents Revealed Palette and use it several times a week, so I was so excited to see the sequel in my box and play with this one!

You can find Coastal Scents Revealed 2 Palette here on Coastal Scents website. The price is $39.95, but as I write this post, this palette is on sale for $19.95, but I hear that they regularly run sales on their palettes. For the price, you get twenty matte and shimmer eyeshadows in rose colored tones. Swatching the eyeshadows it looks like there are eight matte eyeshadows and the rest are shimmers, some even look metallic. They are beautiful...

Let's take a closer look!

Looking at this palette, it is so gorgeous. There are eyeshadows in this palette that I just do not have, ranging from rose colored to burgundy! It is always a plus that they have a black eyeshadow so it can be used as an eyeliner, making this eyeshadow palette very versatile and travel friendly.

Speaking of travel friendly, this is such a slim palette and so light that it would be perfect to take with you when you are traveling. Can you imagine (because I was thinking...), you could take the Coastal Scents Revealed 1 AND 2 palette with you when you travel and will have forty eyeshadows to choose from in every neutral color a person could think of! In a few months I will be in New York City, and I think I may have to bring three palettes along with me... When that time comes, I will share with you what beauty products I will be bringing... Anyways, on with the review!!!!

The only downside, is that the palette does not have a mirror. But, if you take this palette with you, just take a compact or travel friendly mirror with you. No huge deal, just something I wish was incorporated into the palette.

There are so many shadows to choose from that you can create a beautiful fun look with these. The formula is much the same as the original palette, it is soft and powdery. So, please do make sure that you tap off your brush before applying, because I do experience fall out with these products.

The pigmentation is wonderful with these eyeshadows. They are not on the same level with Urban Decay eyeshadows, which are like velvet butter, but these are above the quality of drugstore eyeshadows. For the price and amount that you are getting in the Revealed 2 Palette, I am not complaining at all!

The only thing is, as you can see from the bottom row swatches, the black eyeshadow is not as pigmented. It is chalky and skips quite a bit. It is more of a dark grey color than pure black. But when used as an eyeliner, it looked just fine.

I have really enjoyed the Coastal Scents eyeshadows so far, and now look forward to trying some of their other products soon!

What do you enjoy from Coastal Scents? I would really like to know so I can try them out for myself and discover some new loves!



Have A Wonderful Day!
