ItsJudyTime Palette Review & Swatches!


Last winter, one of my favorite Youtubers came out with her own custom made palette through BH Cosmetics and I've finaaaally bought one for myself. I've been watching Judy’s makeup channel and daily vlogs for over a year now and have fallen in love with her and her family. If you guys don't know who Judy is, she is an amaaazing "beauty guru," just go to YouTube and type: ItsJudyTime OR ItsJudysLife and watch her videos, I'm 100% positive that you will love her as much as I do!

ItsJudyTime Palette ($20)

The ItsJudyTime palette includes 12 eyeshadows that can be worn day or night. There are 3 finishes: satin, shimmer and matte. Most of the shadows are neutral shades with the exception of 2 purples and 1 navy blue shade. Overall, the quality of these eyeshadows are good :) After playing around with these shadows, I found that the satin & shimmer eyeshadows actually show up better when applied w/ a damp flat shader brush. Also, the darker the shadow, the more pigmented it is.

Pros:
  • Good shade selection
  • Most of the shades are pretty pigmented
  • Easy to blend 
  • Sleek packaging
  • Stays on all day
  • Affordable

Cons:
  • Matte shades are a little chalky
  • Some shades aren't true to color

I bought mine during a 2 for $20 sale which was awesome because it was basically BOGO free :) This palette is currently 25% off right now on the BH cosmetics website sooo if you're thinking about buying this palette, I would get it asap because I believe this palette is limited edition!
