Maybelline The Expert Wear Palette The Nudes - Photos, Swatches, and Review

July 11, 2014

You can never have enough neutral eyeshadows and this new palette from Maybelline does not disappoint. I had been waiting for a while to find this near me, so instead I ordered it from Ulta. Of course they started popping up everywhere once I was waiting for my order, but either way I have it now and I'm excited! There have been mixed reviews, some loving it and some not so much. Find out my thoughts below and see swatches!

More info on the Maybelline The Nudes Palette:
The Expert Wear Palette by Maybelline offer great colors that are perfect for everyone. These shades have great pigment and will help you achieve the perfect day or evening look.

I was so happy when I started swatches and saw how pigmented each shadow was. There was a few that were not as pigmented as others, but that was okay with me. The ones that were lighter are great to build on and add another shadow to. All of the swatches were done by themselves with no primer underneath. You can see how pigmented they are on their own, and with primer they pop even more. 

Wearing the shadows was great with a primer and they lasted all day. I didn't have any trouble with creasing or the shadows fading. The shimmery shades didn't have much fall out and the matte shades were easy to blend. I didn't find the shadows to be chalky at all, just good quality. 

I also noticed how some shades were super close to the ones that I have in my Urban Decay Naked Palette. There was a bout 5 shades that were close enough to pass against the UD ones. Maybelline did a great job at making a neutral palette with 12 eyeshadows for everyday use. The price is just right and the palette is travel friendly since I would only need this and I'm ready to go. 

Recommend? Yes, I love this palette! The shadows are pigmented and easy to blend.

Maybelline The Expert Wear Palette The Nudes retails for $9.99 and can be found at Target, CVS, Walgreens, and other retail stores. Also can be found online.
