So it's that time of year again and this year I am feeling pretty overwhelmed with the amount of cosmetic gifts that are available so I decided to do this Rose Gold one as it's one I've been mentally planning for months!  The lines are slightly blurred when it comes to the "Rose Gold" tone as some products are marketed "Copper" but are the same tone as other "rose gold" products; either way they both look beaut. If I get time to write another post before Christmas I will do so, but for now feast your eyes on these pics of rose gold yumminess and read on for more info!

Sunday Swatches: Huda Beauty Textured Shadows Palette - Rose Gold Edition

So I put out a Twitter Poll about which post my followers would like to see more/first and the Huda Beauty palette surprisingly won the vote (despite it being sold out).
In this review post, I will try and compare it to the Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance (ABH MR) palette (see my review here), and as always, will give my honest opinion and who I would recommend it for, so keep reading!

Eye makeup steps:

I started by priming the eyes with UDPP in Eden and then highlighted the brow bone with the matte shade Strange. I then highlighted the inner corner of the eye with Dust, followed by Buzz on the inner eye until the middle of the eyelid. I then added Nooner after the middle of the lid and Blackheart on the outer corner, blending upwards and inwards into the crease. Nooner was blended above the crease and into the Blackheart shade to soften it. Limit was added above this and blended upwards into Strange on the browbone. I went back and added a little bit of Trick with my finger to the middle of the lid on top of Buzz.
I lined the top eyelid with Inglot Gel eyeliner and the inner eye with Perversion eye pencil. I used the remaining colour from the liner brush to sculpt the brows and fill them.
Using a wet liner brush, I followed the same sequence from the top eyelid to the bottom lashline with Dust, Buzz and Blackheart.

After concealing under the eye and around the inner eye area, I added Daniel Sandler Jumbo Jet Mascara to finish the eye makeup:

Face makeup steps:

For the rest of the face I used the ATF concealer on areas that needed more coverage, then blended the Naked Skin foundation in 6.0 all over the face for the base. I then sculpted the cheekbones with Motives Sculpt & Shape Duo, followed by UD Toasted Bronzer above and a bit of Overexposed blush on the apples of my cheeks. To highlight, I used Glint from the same Shattered palette (review here) as the Overexposed blush.
Finally for the lips I first used Naked2 lip liner but felt there was something better about a pinkier tone for this look to tie in with the rose-gold theme so added SSLC in Lovechild on top:

I chose to go for the shimmery/glittery colours from the palette for this look as it is the festive season after all and those glittery shades just called out to me, particularly my favourites Blackheart and Trick/Buzz.

I was dying to see how the neutrals would look on my yellow skintone and though I'm not usually a fan of rosy colours on my skin, these colours are lovely to wear if you don't feel comfortable wearing brighter shades of pink.
