BH Cosmetics Galaxy Chic Palette

I am an absolute sucker for eyeshadow palettes. Show me a palette in neutrals and it'll be on my dressing table in 10 seconds flat. This palette is a little outside my usual comfort zone but it is just so stunningly pretty that I couldn't resist (I tried!).
The Product - BH Cosmetics Galaxy Chic Palette ($22.95 USD)
I actually purchased this palette from a little store called My Cube in the Myer Centre in Brisbane, so I paid a little more than the RRP of $23 USD....but it was worth it! It caught my eye one day and I thought about it so much that I just had to go back and buy it. I mean, a space-themed eyeshadow palette, who could walk past that?
The palette itself contains 18 shimmery, baked eyeshadows, all with space-themed names. There are a range of colours but the main themes are blue, orange, brown and purple. They aren't colours that I would usually go for but they are just stunning to look at. The colour payoff is also pretty amazing, you really only need a tiny bit of shadow. The only downside would be the fallout, which is minor but still pretty annoying. My favourite shades would have to be Milky Way (a shimmery white-pink), Mars (a bold orange), Pluto (a black-purple) and Sun (a red-gold shimmer) but I love every single shade in the palette. I also think the palette itself is great, very sturdy with a decent sized mirror. I do feel like the shadows wouldn't travel well, they do seem a little delicate and prone to smashing, but I'm more than happy to give this palette a permanent home on my dressing table.

    I love shadow palettes, and this is supposed to be standout with the BH cosmetics range! It's on my list, simply because of how pretty baked shadows are, plus it has great pigmentation! I love my Eye on the Sixties palette, such lovely pops of colour!

    Great review, Dani!
