You knew I had to play around with those purples right? Even though this palette only boasts 2 purple shade and one duochrome, I feel it is very easy to create a look that is all purple with this palette. That is why it is one of my favorite shades in this palette. While very wearable still, I do feel that Angelic is a shade that definitely amps up the look and takes it to the next level. I say neutral, but I feel this palette does step it up a notch. As you can see, it is super easy to create a neutral day time look. I went in with all the basic shades this palette has to offer. The Applicationįor my first attempt at using this palette, I decided to keep things simple. The glitter, while not my favorite, stayed put well over a bit of glitter glue. Cashmere on the bottom left is a stunning shade, but all the other shimmers are not only amazingly smooth, but they also go on well with a brush and stay put and look intense all day. This palette has some amazing shimmer shades. The shimmers is where this palette truly shines. Blending was an absolute dream with these shadows. All of these shades worked amazingly well. They performed much better on the eyes than they did in the swatch. The mattes feel a bit dry to the touch and do not show up as pigmented as they are. As you can see these go on well with a finger swatch. Here you can see the shadows all swatched per row. The palette doesn’t run super deep, but the lightest shade is a bit too dark for my skin tone, which is a bit of a shame. I could have done without the pressed glitter and would have preferred that to be a duochrome as well, but overall, I like the color scheme. You get 8 mattes, 7 shimmers, 2 duo chromes and 1 pressed glitter. This was one of the first palettes to come out with such a color scheme and now purple seems to be put into every palette it seems. The palette contains a lot of warm tones and a few pops of purple. In the lid there is a good sized mirror and this palette is made out of cardboard, but does have a magnetic closure to make sure the palette is stays shut. The shimmer on the eyes also truly reflects in the light. When you slide the palette out of the box, you are met with a palette with Huda’s face on it. The Packagingĭesert Dusk comes in a beautiful outer box that is all purple. This only has one pressed glitter, so I thought I might enjoy the other shadows at least. I chose this over the original Rose Gold Textured palette, as I wasn’t too keen on the textured shadows in that palette. Inside there are 18 shades that should represent the colors of a desert at sunset. This makes it one of the most expensive palettes I currently own. This palette retails for $65, which is quite steep. I bought my palette via Cultbeauty, which is great as they do free international shipping. Huda Beauty Desert Dusk eyeshadow palette When I spotted the Desert Dusk eyeshadow palette, I knew I had to try and get my hands on it. It is quite a high end brand, which also means that items can be quite pricey. Not that many of the releases I see excite me or make me want to get into the brand. I am not that familiar with Huda Beauty makeup.
