It’s amazing to see a brand like Anastasia Beverly Hills grow from being the authority on brows to having a full-on suite of color products. In the past years we’ve seen concealers, contour kits, eyeshadow palettes, lip colors, and more and it’s all so inspiring watching a woman-owned business expand so much. One of the latest launches from the brand is the Anastasia Shadow Couture World Palette.

I haven’t met many Anastasia palettes I didn’t like. The Anastasia Shadow Couture World Palette features 12 shades that work amazingly on all skin tones. I’d say these run mostly neutral with a few warm and cool shades, but definitely something most beauty enthusiasts would find work well.

The brand sent over the Anastasia Shadow Couture World Palette for review consideration and I’ve had some time to play around with it and test the quality.

So first things first, like most Anastasia eyeshadow palettes, Anastasia Shadow Couture World Palette has amazing quality. I love that there’s a good mix of neutral colors that work on a wide range of skin tones and accent colors. The options are endless for the amount of eye makeup looks you can create from this one palette. There’s plenty for both day and night looks, too. This also has a congruent lineup of colors that work in harmony together. Almost any two shade color combos will make make sense. Shoot, even any three or four shade combos, too.

While the pigmentation is good on its own, like with any eyeshadows you’ll want to wear a primer or base underneath to ensure all-day wear without creasing or fading.

Bottom line: Anastasia Shadow Couture World Palette is a great buy with amazing quality if these shades 1. appeal to you and 2. aren’t very similar to stuff already in your stash. But it IS limited edition, so if you love it, you gotta get it before it’s gone.

Price and where to buy: $30 at Sephora (plus 4% cash back when you use eBates) and anastasiabeverlyhills.com
