Hey y'all! Today I wanted to do a review on this Coastal
Scents Revealed Palette. I got this off Birchbox. They gave out samples
of it. The month they did that, I did not get samples. But I wanted it really bad. I've
heard it compared to the Naked 1 and 2 palettes. It has 20 colors, neutral colors. I do with
that it had a mirror up here. It did come with some brushes. This review is mostly about
the colors in the palette. I like them, there are some mattes and there's
some with shimmer. The only problem I have, that I'm finding out, is that they're not
true to color. Like, the color that it shows in the palette is not coming off on my skin
the same color. For instance, I don't know if you can tell, the color I have on today,
it's a more of a like a peachy orange, I thought it was going to be pink. I'll show you. I
used this color here and I sincerely thought it was going to be peach (I meant pink). And
then here's a purple color, it looks like its purple but it does not come off as purple.
I don't know. I'm going to swatch some. Oh, I did put some
matte brown in here, to try and tone it down some. Because it was extremely orange when
I first did it. I'm going to swatch this, the one I thought
was pink. And it's a pretty color. And it comes off almost like a rose gold color on
my hand but when it's sheered out, it does not look like that. When it's on my eye it
is not looking like that. Now let me try the one that I thought was
a purple color. It's almost a silver. Now on my arm it's coming off as a silvery purple.
I don't know. How about this one that's even darker? Like a darker silvery purple. Yea
that's not, I'm putting it on my finger and I'm having to pick up even more. Now that
comes off as a, almost, I don't know. They're coming off different colors than they look
like in the palette. And I thought that was strange. Now I haven't tried some of these.
This here, this silver color, let's see what it looks like. It's pretty. Now that's coming
off as a, more of a silver taupe. I don't know. I don't know y'all. So if any body else
has this, let me know if you're getting a different result. I don't know. If it's just
me, I don't know how to apply makeup. Which could be the problem. Now this color here
is like a pinky peach color. So I got it on here. I just dropped my palette. Now this
is more, it's like a frosted pink, a really light frosted pink. And in the, on the palette
it looks peachy. I don't know. It could just be me. I've got this, the darker matte brown.
And to me this is coming off as a light purple. I don't know y'all. I don't know if it's just
me. Let me try the blue. So it's like a shimmery blue. Now that's pretty. That's real pretty.
And it's light blue but you could also use it a purple. I don't know y'all. Let me try
these 2 shimmer colors down here, that I haven't tried either of these yet. They look like
the same color just one's a little more shimmery than the other one. One's more like a shimmer
gold and then this one is like a rose gold. So that's those 2 colors there. I don't know.
So anyway I wasn't even planning on doing a video today. But when I got ready I wanted
really light, I just wanted a wash of color. And I did go up a little too high with my
brush, my real techniques brush, so that's my fault, but when the color came off it was
orange. And I was like no, I'm wearing, I've got on a pink shirt under this shirt. I wanted
to wear pink. I just wanted pink today. And it is extremely orange to me. So like I said
I wasn't going to do a video but I wanted to a review on this. I don't think I have
done one yet since I got the palette. And I'm pleased with it, I mean it's a lot of
neutrals and it's got a lot of mattes in there. So I do use the mattes a lot of times, to
blend out other colors in my makeup routine. But I just thought it was so strange that
what I thought was going to be pink, came off as orange. I still I don't know. I mean
am I seeing it wrong? Maybe it's supposed to be orange. I thought it was going to be
pink, like a mauve pink. And it is coming off as a burnt orange. So maybe I don't know,
maybe I'm colorblind and I don't know it. Anyway I wasn't going to do a video and I
thought I just want to do one. I want to see if anybody else has the same problem. So if
you have the same, not a problem, it's just not what you expected. So if you have the
same issue, let me know what you think. And if you still use your Revealed palette as
much. I guess that's it. I hope you guys are having a great day! Thanks for watching! Bye
y'all.
