MannyMUA x MakeupGeek Palette Review

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Ship chapter.

Honestly, my opinion might be a little bias, but this is HANDS DOWN the best palette on the market. Manny Gutierrez, otherwise known as MannyMUA on social media, has collaborated with one of the top makeup brands in the industry, MakeupGeek. The build-up for the palette has been months, and it is finally here.

When MakeupGeek held their presale the day before the palettes actual launch, the entire site crashed. It was down for hours, leaving people unable to purchase any items from MakeupGeek. After adding 4+ servers, fans were able to get their hands on the palette.

Truthfully, the day I got my palette in the mail was life changing (I’m dramatic, shhh.) The color I was most anxious for was Insomnia, which is a duo-chrome shade. The base is a burgundy, brown shade, with red and blue reflects. This shade is currently available from makeup geek, but as a loose pigment, and not a pressed shade. The creaminess, blend ability, and pay-off is astounding, but the best part about this palette is that Manny has worked his ass off to create a flawless palette that accurately represents his work ethic and his creativity. If you can get a hand on this palette, go for it ASAP!

Biographies are always the worst to write, because if you glamorize yourself, you're considered vain. If you talk too little about yourself, it doesn't satisfy the readers needs. My name is Rachel. I enjoy long walks on the beach, candle lit dinners, and a romantic movie on Netflix. Kidding. I've been writing short stories and poems ever since I can remember, so to say that I enjoy writing is an understatement. I am so thankful to be apart of HerCampus and all the amazing opportunities coming up!
