BH Cosmetics 28 Neutral Colour Palette first impression // MostlyMilly




I have been ordering a bit of makeup recently. Mostly from Amazon as it’s so quick and easy and the one click process literally pulls me in. I love my eyeshadow palettes and I’ve heard of BH Cosmetics before and as far as I’m aware it’s a cheap American makeup brand. I’ve come across a lot of their eyeshadow palettes as they are super cheap but have always hesistated in buying any due to mixed reviews and my dis-belief that you can possibly sell quality eyeshadows so cheaply. 
Here’s the exact link from where I bought this palette from :




The palette is £12.95 so really cheap. For that price you get 28 shadows that range in matte and shimmer finish. I didn’t have massive expectations on this product purely due to it’s price but after having a quick play around after it arrived today, I’m pleasantly surprised. I wouldn’t say I’m blown away by the pigmentation of these shadows but for less than £13 I think this would be a perfect palette for someone just starting out in makeup. 



The textures of the shadows differ which is strange. Some of the colours are much creamier and more pigmented than others that literally hardly show up. I would definitley recommend using an eyeshadow primer when wearing these shadows as I’m not certain they will last very long. 


 ^ Here are 3 of the brown shadows in the palette. One thing I would change about this palette is to include names for the colours as there aren’t any that I can see. As you can see from the swatches above, the pigmentation is good! However, like I said before, this differs as some colours hardly show up.


 ^ A few more swatches


^ Here above is an example of what I mean about the difference in pigmentation and texture in some of the shadows. The white is the whitest white of the palette (bottom left) and its so creamy and I’m really pleasantly surprised because usually in cheaper palettes, the white colours show up the least. On the right is the black of the palette ( bottom right) and its much less pigmented than the white. It’s ashy and hardly shows up, I had to really rub my finger in it to get a swatch.



I think for less than £13 this palette really isn’t that bad. You get a nice range of neutral colours and if you’re just starting out in makeup and want something to play around with for a really cheap price this is perfect!
