Review: Sugarpill Heart Breaker Palette

Greetings Dark Siders!
I am extremely excited to share with you my first Sugarpill order ever! This very first epic haul was one of the most exciting purchases I have made in a long time. I have wanted to try Sugarpill for a very long time but I always stopped myself for some unknown reason. I keep scolding myself for not making an order sooner.

The latest craze amongst us bloggers has been the new Sugarpill palette, the Heart Breaker. When I first saw the promotional picture I knew I had to have it. So on Friday night, I stayed up waiting to make my order~ Shipping didn't take long since I live in Davis, California and I believe these were sent out from Oakland, California which is only about 1.5 hours away ♥  I want to share with you my thoughts and some swatchies of the new palette ^_^ I will review the other things I bought in a separate post!

Price and Availability

$34 on the Sugarpill website.

Packaging

The box it comes in is sooo cute!

Here is the actual palette. It has a blue heart and cross. The palette itself has a good amount of weight and it is very well made.

The colors! 

Swatches

Swatches on bare skin. Swatched twice with my fingers.

 

Review

Before I received my palette, I occupied myself by reading a lot of reviews on the palette. I saw some raves and some negative reviews as well. This is my first time trying Sugarpill so I had no previous experiences with their products to make any value judgements. My first impression came about when I was swatching the palette for the first time. To me, these are all very pigmented and they swatched very nicely. Acidberry and Mochi swatched the best for me. Velocity was a little patchy and it required one more pass than the rest of the shades just to even it out, but it is very pigmented. 2am is not patchy like Velocity, but it is a little more sheer than the rest. Once used on the eyes though, these all did amazingly. Mochi is by far my favorite! ♥

Acidberry took slightly more work to apply on the eyes than when swatched, but nothing that would deter me from using the color or loving the palette. Velocity is beautiful, but it does take more work to blend in than the rest of the other three shades. 2am looks so much better on the eyes than when swtached!! 

I personally love all the colors in the palette. Acidberry and Mochi are unique to my collection. I have something similar to Velocity but it is a loose powder and it is nice to have something in pan form. I have so many purples, but 2am is kind of refreshing. It is much more muted than my other shades and it has a beautiful, yet subtle aqua shimmer.

To sum up...

PROS:

-Lovely color selection

-All four colors have good pigmentation, although they vary slightly

-Amazing staying power (don't need a primer for all day wear) 

-NO fallout at all!

-For the most part, the shades are unique to my eyeshadow collection

-Shipping was very fast, everything was well packaged (plus free pigment sample and sticker!)

-Cute and durable packaging

CONS:

-Velocity is very pigmented, but it can a little patchy and hard to blend

-2am could be a little more pigmented

Palette in Action!

Here is a quick look where I used all four colors:

Acidberry-inner half of the lid and lower lash line

Mochi- outer half of lash line

Velocity-small amount blended into the crease

2am- on my eyebrows

and also Buttercupcake- on the inner corner

Verdict

I adore all the colors in the palette. The eyeshadows are not 100% perfect because they do have their small problems. But overall, these are really magnificent. I am super, super happy with the quality, price, shipping and everything. I am already in love with Acidberry and Mochi, especially together they look amazing!
