Jaclyn Hill Palette By Morphe

           
I feel like the only appropriate way to start this blog post is ...


"YYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSS"
If you know what Instagram is then you know what the Jaclyn Hill Favorites Palette by Morphe is. It debuted online back around the new year as a limited edition item and it sold out in minutes. Because of the such high-demand for this palette, Morphe decide to bring it back mid-April, but once it was gone, it was gone. I was lucky enough to be able to score this palette and let me tell you!!! YYYAAAAAASSSSS! It is unbelievably pigmented, has a smooth application, and is super affordable. The entire palette retailed for about $30, which is insane given the quality and it includes 28 shadows!. If you did not have the opportunity to grab this baby before it was gone, stop panicking because all of the shadows are available individually for the affordable price of $2 per shadow!

As you can see there are many warm shades of tans, browns, and coppers. It also includes some deep cranberry colors, reddish purples, peaches/light pinks, and an emerald green as well! The first 4 shades of this palette are amazing highlight colors!


Let's see some swatches! (keep in mind that I did swatch them with brushes to be quicker & also with a flash because it was 10pm when I edited this)

This is the first row in the palette, swatched, left to right with numbers
4, 54, 6, 76, 64, 14, 75
Second row, swatched in order left to right
67, 13, 62, 63, 20, 47, 66
Third row, swached in order left to right
33, 68, 16, 15, 61, 24, 74
Fourth row, swatched in order left to right
11, 59, 38, 53, 48, 71, 19
How GORG are these shadows?!?!
These pictures don't even begin to do them justice!
I do reference back to these swatches when I am working on clients, simply because some do look different in the pan then when applied, which was frustrating in the beginning. But these shadows are honestly right up there with Urban Decay Naked Palette quality! They blend like a dream, do not crease on me, and are extremely long-wearing.

Thank you all again so much for checking out this post! I know I have been MIA on all platforms but I will be back this week for you guys!
As always, comments & love are welcome!
