H&M NUDES PALETTE: SOFT NUDES | REVIEW & SWATCHES

Ended up scrolling through H&M when I came across their cosmetics section and found myself very intrigued. I was never aware of how many products they had available, all I was aware of at the time was their nail polishes, but alas, I've never been so happy to be wrong. Am I really late on discovering this? #noob
I bought one of their 'nudes' palettes in Soft Nudes (£3.99 say whaaaaaat)
Lets continue on by looking at my mediocre photography skills..
(I got an A in Photography would you bloomin' believe it - fun fact of the day)

Swatches on arm correspond to the eyeshadows on the above picture

So first impressions are that they have pretty good pigmentation for £3.99, I can think of more expensive palettes that are equal or below this standard. 
I actually was surprised by how big the eyeshadows were which is great as you're usually surprised at how small it is (that's what she said)
I think this would be great for travelling; the packaging is sturdy and snaps shut, and even though the eyeshadows are large the packaging itself isn't big - they've really used up the space wisely.
Overall lovely staple palette and for doing neutral and very wearable looks but that bronze/gold in the middle adds a little extra oomph and would look great on blue eyes, also you could bring it into night time with the darkest brown but that wouldn't be dramatic enough for me haha.

They have loads of palettes with different shades available I will definitely get more in the future plus I would love to do a swatch post on their lipsticks and lip pencils as they look rather delicious (I couldn't think of a better word)

hope you enjoyed this, you may not have considered H&M as a place for make up but from this palette I am impressed and definitely recommend their products. (If you sign up to H&M right now you can get 25% off!)
Love you long time xo
