Makeup Revolution Reloaded Iconic Fever eye shadow palette review/recenzija

I finally bought something from Makeup Revolution. I know how popular this brand is, but we don’t have it here in Bosnia. It’s really hard to get hold of it and I just don’t like ordering online, because every time I order something I have to pay additional money for customs. So I prefer to buy makeup while travelling, so that’s what happened when I went to Germany. I wanted to get their foundation stick also, as I heard only positive reviews about it, but couldn’t find the right shade for me unfortunately.

Konačno sam kupila nešto od popularnoj brenda Makeup Revolution. Znam koliko je ovaj brend zastupljen u blogosferi i koliko ga ljudi vole, ali teško ga je naći u Bosni. Ja inače ne volim naručivati stvari sa Interneta jer mi carina i pošta dodatno naplate svaki paket, tako da me sve izađe puno skuplje. Inače kada želim kupiti novu šminku, čekam da otputujem negdje u Evropu gdje mogu vidjeti proizvod prije nego ga kupim. Tako se desilo i sa ovom paletom, kupila sam ju kad sam bila u Njemačkoj. Htjela sam kupiti i Makeup Revolution stik podlogu, ali nijanse koje su imali nisu mi nikako odgovarale, tako da sam samo kupila paletu sjenila.

I decided to try their super hyped up eye shadow palettes. There were 6 different ones on display, but I went with Iconic fever as it seemed the one I can use the most in my daily makeup routine. Packing is cheap plastic, but you definitely expect that from affordable drugstore brand. It seems sturdy enough, I hope it won’t break any time soon. You get 15 eye shadows and in each eye shadow you get 1.1 g or 0.04 oz. of product. I don’t mind packing as it is easy to use and you can see all the shades that you are getting. I wish that plastic was just a bit thicker.

Odlučila sam da mi prvi proizvod od Makeup Revolutiona budu njihove popularne palete sjena za oči. U ponudi su imali 6 različitih paleta, ali ja sam se odlučila za „Iconic Fever“ pošto su ovo boje koje ja inače najviše nosim. Pakiranje je vrlo tanko, radi se o jeftinoj, lahkoj plastici. Nisam razočarana pakiranjem, to je standardno jeftino drogerijsko pakiranje. Nadam se da će paleta dugo trajati i da se neće raspasti nakon nekoliko sedmica korištenja. Dobijete 15 različitih nijansi sjenila i u svakom sjenilu po 1.1 g proizvoda. Sviđa mi se što možete vidjeti sve nijanse bez da otvorite paletu, samo bih voljela da je plastika malo deblja, jer bi tako duže trajala.

The shades in this palette remind me of Naked Heat shades, so I suppose it is supposed to be a dupe for Urban Decay. I have all of these shades in Essence Wanted: sunset dreamers eye shadow palette (review). I didn’t realize that until I came home, so I’m a bit mad that I didn’t choose other palette. Still these are the shades I use on daily basis, so I’ll definitely use them a lot. I have mixed feelings about this palette. I don’t like the mattes. I find that they don’t blend as well as I would want them. They definitely take a bit longer to blend out and they have a lot of powder kick back. I don’t mind the kick back as long as shades perform well, but these do take long to blend and to intensify the shades. I feel like if I go with a lot of product it is harder to blend out, so I always go for small amount of product on brush. The shimmers however are stunning. They are super pigmented and creamy, I do enjoy them a lot. They do have a lot of shimmer, so they shine nicely and reflect beautifully on light. Unfortunately shimmery shades have negative side also, they get hard pan very easy, so I need to scrape top of shadows often so they continue to give enough pigment.

Nijanse u ovoj paleti me definitivno podsjećaju na nijanse u Urban Decay Naked Heat paleti, pa je ovo vjerovatno jeftinija verzija toga. Ja već imam sve ove nijanse u Essence Wanted: sunset dreamers paleti (recenzija), ali to nisam shvatila dok nisam stigla kući. Iako već imam ove nijanse, znam da ću i dalje koristiti ovu paletu, jer su ovo nijanse koje ja nosim najčešće. Ova paleta ima pozitivne i negativne strane definitivno. Ne sviđaju mi se mnogo mat sjene iz ove palete. Mislim da se prilično teško blendaju i imaju dosta puderastog ostatka. Ja ne volim koristiti puno sjenila na četkici od jednom, jer će tako bledanje biti puno teže. Ja uzmem malo sjene na četkicu i onda polahko blendam i intenziviram boju nanoseći nekoliko slojeva, ovako je blendanje lakše i efekat na očima je ljepši. Što se tiče šljokastih sjenila, ona su baš dobra. Izuzetno su pigmentovana, kremasta i lako se nanose. Imaju dosta šljokica u sebi tako da fino reflektuju svijetlost i izgledaju divno na kapcima. Nažalost i oni imaju negativnu stranu. Nakon korištenja nekoliko puta na vrhu sjenila se formira tvrdi sloj koji se redovno mora uklanjati ako želite da sjenila i dalje budu pigmentovana.

I would recommend this palette. It is really affordable, so if you want to try something that would be easy every day palette this one can be it. Even though I don’t like mattes a lot, they are still workable, so they give beautiful result on eyelids. The palette itself is very useful and it’s perfect beginner palette. That’s all from me today. I hope you enjoyed this review. Let me know did you try any Makeup Revolution eye shadow palettes? What is your favorite product by Makeup Revolution? Do you have any recommendations for me, as I do want to try more of a brand. Thank you for reading. Have a nice day! xx

Ja definitivno preporučujem ovu paletu. Mislim da je dobre kvalitete, za cijenu koju plačate. Mislim da je odlična za početnike u šminkanju, jer dobijete dosta različitih sjena, tako da možete pomalo i eksperimentisati. Iako mi se ne sviđaju mat nijanse u ovoj paleti, može se sa njima raditi što je najvažnije, tako da dobijete lijep rezultat na kraju. To je sve od mene za danas. Nadam se da vam se svidjela ova recenzija. Recite mi da li ste probali neku od Makeup Revolution paleta sjena za oči? Da li ste prije koristili proizvode od Makeup Revolution-a? Imate li nešto da mi preporučite, jer definitivno želim probati više od ovog brenda? Hvala vam na čitanju. Želim vam lijep dan! xx
