Taupe-tastic Tuesday: Anastasia She Wears It Well Palette

Anastasia Beverly Hills recently debuted a new palette called She Wears It Well.  It was designed with old Hollywood Glamour in mind and has just enough taupe to qualify for my Taupe-tastic Tuesday post! See what I did there? haha

The packaging is simple but cute.  There is a pink sleeve that houses the palette and the palette itself has a faux croco finish with simple details here and there.  Magnetic closure that is sturdy.

Inside there are 9 pigment-rich eyeshadows (8 are .025 oz, and one is .063).  The palette comes with a small dual-ended brush, one side for laying color down and one side for blending.  There is also a decent sized mirror to aid in application if you are on-the-go.

The colors themselves are beautiful!  There are 3 matte shades in a light, medium and dark color.  All of the shimmery shades are mid-tone colors.  The palette is also sort of divided, and the organization freak in me likes that a lot.  I like that all the matte shades are located together.

The shimmery shades are terrific, they are creamy, blendable, soft, and did I say beautiful once already?  

Three of the next finger swatches are mattes (the first 3 left to right) and one is more of a satin-finish.  These are silky to the touch and quite nice as well.  I had a hard time getting the lightest shade to show up at all but I don't know if that was due to my skin tone or the eyeshadow itself.

I love the name of this palette because I feel like neutral eyeshadows are something everyone needs in the palette and I think everyone wears them well.  I also like that there are cool and warm shades included.

Trophy is a beautiful shimmery taupe.

Glow is a nice shimmery bronze shade.

Latte is a shimmery, pretty, light milky chocolate color.

Foxy is a cocoa brown with copper shimmer.

Sunset is a champagne-ish gold shimmer.

Frosting is a light cupcake pink shimmer.

Onyx is a matte black.

Almond is a matte light skin-toned shade.  You can't even see it against my natural color.

Toffee is a mid-toned matte brown.

This palette retails for $34 and can be found at retailers such as Anastasia, Sephora and Nordstrom.  

I think this is a great concise palette.  It has everything you need for a complete look: dark, light, matte, shimmer.  It even includes a brush and a mirror.  For the ladies that are looking for a no-fuss travel makeup palette this is definitely a go-to!  I wouldn't hesitate to pick this beauty up!  I would dare to say that it rivals is better than Naked 1 and 2.
