Happy Monday.  I haven’t been using much makeup lately, since I’ve been on mommy mode and a bit lazy, but since it’s Monday, I figured for Makeup Monday I would share a palette that I’ve been enjoying.  I have been a huge fan of Missy Lynn (Start2FinishMUA) for quite a while and was excited with the release of her Missy Lynn palette a few months ago through BH Cosmetics.  I purchased it immediately after it was released and I wanted to share my thoughts on this palette with you.

BH Cosmetics Missy Lynn Palette

“Start with Confidence.

Finish with Success.”

– Missy Lynn

For those who don’t know, Missy Lynn, otherwise known as Start2FinishMUA (via YouTube and social media) has been a YouTube Beauty Guru now for quite some time and winner of the NYX Face Awards 2013.  I started watching Missy Lynn years ago when she first started on YouTube and have been a fan since.  An active Military member by day and Glam diva by night.

The BH Cosmetics Missy Lynn Eyeshadow and Baked Highlighter Palette retails for $18.95 (CURRENTLY ON SALE FOR $11.95) and includes six (6) large sized eye shadows and two (2) baked highlighters.  This palette boasts shades that can be used on any skin tone (which I love), and can take the wearer from a day-to-night look easily.   It is a limited edition palette so I wanted to share it with all of you should you decide you want to pick it up.

The purple, gold and bronze shades in this palette have really made it a winner for me to use.  The colors offer nice pigment and I like that there are a blend of satin and metallic type shades.  The highlighters in the palette also do double duty for eye shadow shades as well.  I think overall this palette will offer anyone something perfect for on the go (it travels really nicely) and while the shades are pigmented, they can also be worn sheer or softer with a light hand.

BH Cosmetics Missy Lynn Palette Swatches

I have noticed lately that a lot of makeup palettes I’ve been purchasing have had issues with a layer on the top of them that require me to take a tissue or paper towel and lightly wipe the top layer.  This was definitely the case in this palette, especially for the lighter shades.  At initial swatch, before using the napkin to remove the top layer, testing the product yielded light pigmentation.  After using the napkin however, each color picked up nicely and the pigmentation of each shadow was definitely there.  The darker shades and those that have metallic texture are the ones that are buttery and offer high color payoff off the bat, where as the satin and lighter shades took a bit to build up on – but that was just initially.  I find that they work well now after using it a few times.

The highlighter shades are gorgeous and really pigmented.  They blend out nicely and are not as powdery as I would expect a baked anything to be.  They wear nicely wet as a foiled shadow but I’ve been enjoying them as a soft highlight on my cheek bones.  Highlighter swatches are done dry on bare skin, no primer used.  Each photo was taken in natural lighting.

Since wearing makeup has been non-existent for me lately, I only have a cellphie (cell phone selfie) photo to share.  But overall you can see how nicely the shades look against my skin.  The highlighter did not pull up nicely in the photo, but don’t worry – it was still very prominent and my cheek bones were absolutely stunning.  My favorite highlight is the rose gold… with a soft fluffy brush, it offers a perfect highlight for my skin tone every time.

This palette is allergy and clinically tested which make it a plus for this lady who has sensitive skin.  I love that it is not only non-irritating, but it is also Cruelty Free.

I have been a long time fan of BH Cosmetics palettes as they offer some good products for great price points.  This palette is fun and I love that the packaging really says a lot about who Missy Lynn is… the chains and dog tag represent her being an active military member and it’s still girly which is the type of person Missy Lynn is.  This is definitely a fun palette to have in any collection and I know I’ll be getting some use out of it for sure.

    The highlighters in this palette are great and I love the color palette. I have I think three palettes from BH – one is a 1960s theme, another is a galaxy theme and I forget the other – a tropical theme? I can’t pick a favorite, I enjoy them all!

  2. I’ve been wanting a palette with some gorgeous purples, and this looks perfect! I think I need it!

    Glad you found some time in Mommy mode to play with some makeup! That purple looks great and seems like you can vary the depth of color.
