Hey Lolita Hey



Oh my, if ever there was an excuse to describe something as a thing of beauty, now would be the perfect opportunity. I'd heard Marc Jacobs Beauty products were beautiful but this is something else. The palette has a sleek, slimline design, comes in a cute little pouch and is just gorgeous. In case the title didn't give the game away, this is the Lolita palette. It's a neutral lovers paradise, but I'll let my review do the talking..

I've been wanting to try Marc Jacobs beauty products for ages. They all look so gorgeous and seeing them on other blogger's blogs and YouTube channels just makes them all the more enticing. On first impressions this palette certainly didn't disappoint. The design is beautiful. It's what is on the inside that counts though right? In this treasure chest palette you will find seven eyeshadows, three mattes and four shimmers. 

All the shades are ones I'd wear, although I have to say that middle shade, fourth from the left in the bottom photo is ridiculously glittery! It works well layered over the other colours but on its own, not a good idea. There was glitter in my #217 for days afterwards... I particularly love the two shades on the end which remind me a bit of All That Glitters and Sable from Mac but the matte shades are perfect too. I kinda wish there was a warmer-toned crease colour in here but it isn't a major. 

These shadows are pigmented, easy to blend and of course incredibly long-wearing. I'm so glad I took the plunge and added this to a recent Sephora order.

-Have you tried anything from Marc Jacobs Beauty? What did you think of it?

*I hope you're all having a fabulous week! I've been quite busy admittedly with Uni and the like, all the usual stuff really. I'm counting down to the weekend already. Hopefully a new video will be up over the weekend too-all going well xx.

  2. It's certainly a stunner! I think there's a new(ish) neutral palette which they've just come out with that also looks quite stunning xo.
