Beauty Killer Palette - Review and Video

On May25th, the Jeffree Star Beauty Killer Palette was released. It also sold out within 15 minutes. Luckily I had a timer on, had logged onto the website beforehand, and had my clicking finger ready. With all the anticipation for this palette I knew it would be both a waiting game, and totally worth it. I had seen his videos showing the swatches, and eye looks and knew I needed to have it.

It took a little over a week to get here with the holiday and mad rush, but was so worth the wait. When it arrived, I immediately grabbed my phone and started recording the unboxing! I haven't seen any unboxing videos of the Beauty Killer Palette yet, and figured it couldn't hurt. If you'd like to see me open and swatch my Beauty Killer Palette, please click here. You can also continue on to read my review down below.

The packaging is perfect. Everything was delivered safely and in amazing condition. The case itself is sturdy. Not to mention the pink and gold coloring. The packaging alone is enough to make you stop and do a double take.

My pictures didn't do the palette justice....

When I first opened the palette I was blown away. I was entirely enamored and dove right in. The colors were even more impressive in person. The colors were bright, the glitter was astounding, and the matte shades looked like butter. It was everything I hoped it would be.

I had seen a lot of people do swatches of eye shadows over their tattoos, and being that I have a tattoo on my right forearm I felt it appropriate to follow suit. The pigmentation on this palette is amazing. Most swipes of the product covered my tattoo in one go. To see the swatches, you can view them here.

My favorite colors from the palette are Black Rainbow, Confession, Princess, and Courtney. Not to say I don't like the other colors, but those four are my definite preferences in this palette.

That being said, I do have one small qualm with this palette. That qualm is the shade, Rich Bitch. Now, when I saw Jeffree's video swatching this palette I was blown away by this shade. When I swatched it at home, I was even more blown away. Applying it on the lid... a totally different story. When I tried to apply it dry, it was like applying pressed glitter with no mixing medium. When I applied it wet, I had to make a few passes before the pigmentation reflected that of the swatches I had previously seen. Rich Bitch just wasn't what I was hoping on the lid right out of the palette. It's nice... but it's just not what I thought it would be.

That being said, everything else about this palette is amazing. I love it. Even if the gold shade was a little lack luster for me. I'd still recommend this palette to anyone. I'd just recommend applying Rich Bitch with a wet brush.
