Hi! My name is Emma, and welcome to my beauty blog. Growing up, I watched my mom and grandmother put on makeup, and waited until the day I was old enough to wear it too. I always used drugstore makeup until an Ulta opened in my neighborhood, and I instantly fell in love with higher-end makeup. I love makeup and skincare and thought all of my excessive shopping could finally have a use. If you have any suggestions/ questions, feel free to message me on Instagram, and I can always do a post about it! 

The original Jaclyn Hill palette is such a success and is loved in the beauty industry. The vault collection is a continuation of the original palette but began getting negative reviews by beauty bloggers before it even launched to the public. Jaclyn Hill and Morphe pulled the vault and delayed the release until August 14th, 2018.

 

Included in this blog, are my honest swatches, all of which are done by my fingers (no brushes used!)        

Armed & Gorgeous $15

VIP (icy white shimmer), Access (matte turmeric gold), Gilt Trip (gold leaf shimmer), Coin (glitzy gold sheen), Agent (matte saffron), Top Secret (matte absinthe green), Smooth Criminal (matte cognac), Secure (matte tangerine), Prowl (matte dark truffle), Classified (shimmering burnt gold). 

Dark Magic $15

Poof (matte cream), Power Cut (metallic silver), Shhh (matte dusty taupe), Trickery (sparkling emerald), Diversion (shimmering gunmetal) Potion (matte avocado green), Busted (matte ocean blue), Inside Job (matte dark jade), Mojo (matte smoked hickory), Temptress (glinting pitch black.)

Bling Boss $15

Bling Bling (silvery pink glitz), Hush Hush (matte lilac mauve), Gem (vibrant violet sheen), Pizzazz (glistening magenta), Mystic (matte blackberry) Spark (matte ruby red), Glitz & Glam (shimmering rose gold), Rockstar (matte mulberry), Ballsy (glistening mauve pink), Berry Treasure (glittering charcoal black)

Ring the Alarm $15

Lolli (shimmering peach rosé), Rush (matte amber), On Camera (shimmering tropical gold), Boom (shimmering blushed bronze), Alert (matte deep ochre)Bomb Ass (gleaming hibiscus pink),  Siren (shimmering plum), Mugshot (matte toasted almond), Framed (matte deep plum), Secret (matte roasted chestnut)

So, the metallics in this set are amazing. They are like butter. In my opinion, though, if you want to buy a Morphe palette, buy the original Jaclyn Hill Eyeshadow Palette. The quality and pigmentation is so impressive while this one can be a little patchy.  

Thanks for reading and make sure you come back next Friday for another post.

xoxo, 

Emma
