Summer is long over, sadly. But the Anastasia Beverly Hills (ABH) Modern Renaissance Palette is one product brings the heat back to autumn. It takes a special kind of palette to have a combination of warm neutrals and berry tones. In fact, this palette might be the first to break that barrier in the beauty industry.
ABH CEO Claudia Soare, also known as Norvina on Instagram, expressed her deep love for the first permanent palette - a set that remains on shelves and isn't discontinued with the change of seasons.
“I wanted to make something beautiful and timeless, since this palette is permanent. Beauty fades, and the real challenge was creating a palette that is useful to your daily life once it's no longer brand new,” she said.
With three intense metallic shades and 11 matte shades, this palette can be purchased for $42 at local beauty stores, including Ulta and Sephora, and online at ABH’s website.
Before you go crazy over the price, this is ABH’s first permanent palette and its first with 14, diverse shades. As each shadow weighs in at .02 oz., I am convinced this palette will last you for months, even a year or two. ABH made sure you were getting exactly what you paid for!
Now if you haven’t had the chance to see this palette face-to-face yet, the buttery, smooth formula is comparable to LORAC’s Pro Palette, also a best seller in the industry. To make the blending easier, this palette also includes a dual double-sided brush. More for your buck, thank you ABH for thinking about us!
Now, let’s get down to the “berry” yummy shades. If you aren’t completely obsessed with berry or red tones, the palette includes warm neutral shades from burnt orange to warm taupe, perfect and easily blend-able for every skin tone. To my readers who are just as crazy about these berry tones, ABH featured three pops of color inspired from Renaissance art. From Barbie pink to strawberry red, you’ll always be inspired to try something new.
Working at Ulta Beauty gave me the pleasure of playing with these shades at work and trying them on with my clients. At first, I was so intimidated. I thought a brown-eyed girl like me would never in a million years try this. Yes, the pink-velvet packaging is adorable, but, realistically, how and when would I incorporate these shades into my daily life?
The answer is always. When I finally bought the palette, I found myself leaning toward the exotic colors and having fun with it! From blending it into my crease to slapping it all over my lid, I got out of my comfort zone. I commend ABH for encouraging me to feeling beautiful in red brick tones and shimmery pink shades. So whether you’re into daytime or smoked out looks, this palette is right for you. And I mean, a new palette to add to your collection? Count me in!
Anastatia Beverly Hills released their first permanent palette carrying a mixture of neutral and berry tones for a variety of looks at any time of the year for $42.
