Make Up Revolution Redemption Palettes

L-R: Make Up Revolution Redemption Iconic 1 Palette, Redemption Acid Brights Palette
Make Up Revolution is a brand that a lot of bloggers have been talking about and something I was keen to try as soon as I saw the prices. They sell 12 palettes for £4 (£4!) and lipsticks for only £1! While I am yet to try the lipsticks I hear that they are actually very good so I'll be sure to try them when I can - Make Up Revolution isn't stocked in the Superdrug near me, unfortunately.

So when in another Superdrug I decided to pick up 2 eyeshadow palettes from the 'Redemption' range, Iconic 1 and Acid Brights. They're really quite the opposite of each other - neutrals and the most insanely bright colours ever.

Some of the colours in Acid Brights are literal highlighter colours. Have you ever seen highlighter yellow eyeshadow? I hadn't. Not sure quite how much use I'll get from the palette but it does look super pretty and there are a few wearable shades - a silver shimmery shade could be quite useful and moss green isn't impossible to work with. Also these colours would be pretty good for fancy dress parties or even stage make up.

In contrast, it has been said that Iconic 1 is a dupe for the Urban Decay Naked palette. While I am yet to try the Naked palette I have seen comparison pictures and they are almost identical. For the price the quality of the eyeshadows is amazing and they do last a long time - at 33p (ish) per eyeshadow you can't really complain. The colours are great, the palette looks nice, it can be used to create a wide variety of looks. I would highly recommend buying it!
