If you haven’t heard of Makeup Revolution by now, then you must have spent the last two years on Mars. I’m naff with brand names, celebrities, general news and even I know about Makeup Revolution. I’m happy to be talking to you about the Makeup Revolution Affirmation Palette.
I think they’re quite clever, to be honest. When the brand first launched, they worked with LOADS of bloggers. Not just big bloggers, either, but bloggers of a whole range of sizes. I’ve seen review after review of products featured on peoples blogs and they’ve done their marketing perfectly, I think.
But enough about that, I’m here to talk to you about one of their palettes I recently bought. The Makeup Revolution Affirmation Palette.
Just what I need, another natural palette to add to my collection, right? The thing is, I’ve ran out of my favourite shade in my Naked 3 palette. Well, I’ve ran out of it twice over as my housemate Christine gave me hers and that’s all gone now. The shade is dust, if you’re interested. They don’t sell it separately and I can’t find anything that comes close to the shimmery golden ever so slightly rose colour and I’m mourning the loss of.
There isn’t a single other colour in my Naked 3 palette that I’ve hit pan on, so I didn’t want to buy a whole new one just for the one shade, so I’ve been seeking cheaper alternatives.
Enter the Affirmation Ultra 32 Eyeshadow Palette, a massive palette that contains 32 shadows. It has golds, browns, coppers, rose golds, purples and smokey shades so it’s a great go-to for all your shadowy needs.
I love the amount of choice in this palette, it’s useful for daytime and nighttime looks and I’ve been making an extra special effort to get some use out of the blues and purples. Oh yes that’s right. I have been stepping out of my comfort zone. Go me.
I have to admit though, they don’t apply as well as the Naked palettes, which I always find to be creamy and pigmented. You do have to build the colours up, but the Makeup Revolution Affirmation palette is a £12.99 palette so it’s not fair to compare it to a £35 one.

Oh my goodness this looks stunning! I wear hardly any makeup (I go for the facially naked look) but I would gladly buy this! Having a look at their website now! Hope shipping to Australia doesn’t cost too much! Em xx

I have a couple of pieces of makeup from Makeup Revolution and find the quality to be very good for the price. I love the fact some of their products are dupes so you can try something similar to a high end version at a cheaper price point. This palette looks like it has some awesome colours.

Aww, so many pretty colours, I especially like the purples and the greys. I never had Makeup Revolution before, but I might try it.
I really want to try this palette. Looks great. 🙂
The palette is stunning but the pigmentation hard to build up. Great on you doll.
I have flawless palette and I am really happy with the pigmentation. For the price you pay, it is such a bargain! This palette has some really pretty shades (I am not a fan of purple tones as they don’t suit me) and you can create such pretty makeups with them. xx

This is why I’m always skittish about buying a palette, there’s usually one or two shades I use constantly and the rest get ignored. Have you ever had one where you loved every colour?
I love these palettes they are such great value for money! It’s one of the reasons I love Sleek eyeshadows so much, they apply so well, are long lasting with the right base and are so cheap you almost feel like it’s a con somehow!

I have found that I don’t like big palettes… I prefer the ones that have very few colors (although I’m looking at that Tartelette Palette and wanting it). I only do neutral colors on my eyes so I see no point having a dozen shades of brown in one palette.
I haven’t used Makeup Revolution, but that palette looks fantastic! I love neutral eyeshadows 🙂
I feel like I may be an alien for saying this but I’ve never tried any Makeup Revolution products. This is a terrific palette. I t has so many pretty and wearable shades!
How pretty! The shade Promise has to be my favorite.

I have been meaning to try one of their palettes for such a long time but I always just change my mind last minute. I think you might have just undone that so thanks haha
Also feel free to check out my blog also 🙂

I have and love this palette. Makeup revolution has seriously ignited a serious eye shadow palette addiction, i’ve cooled it down as of recently but both this brand and freedom makeup i just want to purchase my body weight in eye shadow palettes haha.

I like this company, though I’ve yet to try the eye colours yet. This is really lovely x
This looks delightful! I love how affordable Makeup Revolution is. I’m not exactly a whizz with eye makeup at all, but this could be a nice affordable starter seeing as a Naked palette would just be wasteful. Hope you manage to find something that lives up to dust! x
This palette looks dreamy, the shade Blaze looks soooo good! I cannot buy another eye shadow palette though, I have way too many, it’s a problem haha xo
This palette is absolutely gorgeous.. willing is my fav x
