Makeup Haul! B.O.M.B. Makeup from Juvia’s Place

Published on by LineEmUpMakeupLeave a comment

I am so excited to have brought in three new eyeshadow palettes with my current makeup haul. Earlier this month, I placed two orders with Juvia’s Place and one with a black-owned indie brand (look forward to that post soon). One of those orders has come in and today we are going to go over a brief overview of these three palettes.

The first palette is the Nubian Mini eyeshadow palette. This palette includes six shades in neutrals and bronzes. This palette is perfect for travel, with the pan sizes being smaller that the typical shadow size allowing for the palette itself to be smaller. This is a good palette for an everyday look, but appears to have some depth to take a look from day to night.

The second palette is the Nubian Three: Coral palette. This palette has twelve shades, with the pan sizes being that of a typical eyeshadow. The primary colors in this palette are coral (as the name would imply), brown and grey. This palette sparks a lot of inspiration in me and is something I would consider more of a neutral palette for my color loving preferences.

Finally, we have the Zulu palette, which consists of nine shadows with much larger pan sizes. This palette is quite colorful and offers different shadow types then the other palettes. This one includes two duo-chrome shades which again allows for even more variety and uniqueness from the other palettes.

Please stay tuned as I will be doing separate reviews on each of the palettes with much more detail in the future. I am greatly looking forward to playing with these palettes and updating with my findings.

Meet My Stash: Juvia’s Place The Masquerade Mini Eyeshadow Palette

Published on by LineEmUpMakeupLeave a comment

Today, we are continuing with my black-owned makeup brands (known as B.O.M.B. in the community) content. Now I know you’re thinking, “wasn’t your last post about a Juvia’s Place item?” Yes! But sadly with everything going on in the world, my other orders have not come in yet, however (spoiler alert) it’s mostly going to be Juvia’s Place because it’s what I had access to and I had things on my list that I wanted to pick up. Now, on to my opinions about this beautiful palette.

The Masquerade was originally created in a much bigger palette as each pan size was larger. The palette was then reduced in size and the pans were decreased to the size of a normal eyeshadow. When they did this, I decided to pick up the now dubbed “mini” palette to try out the formula.

This palette is a half-colorful, half-neutral palette that gives you the most variety with three different shadow types. There are 16 shadows in the palette, with nine shimmers, five mattes, and two sequin shades. (To clairify, the sequin shades are mostly matte shades with flecks of shimmer throughout the shade.)

Originally, I was not a fan of this brand’s formula which stopped me from purchasing more palettes. I decided recently to pull it back out and start testing it once again and I have completely changed my mind. To be clear, this has nothing to do with what has been going on as I actually have been trying this palette out for the past month. I believe that my skill with eyeshadow has improved which has increased my enjoyment with this palette. That is to say, it is not the most beginner-friendly formula that I have worked with.

The shades are incredibly pigmented so it takes very little shadow to create a colorful look. This formula takes a lot of blending to keep from having harsh lines if that is a concern of yours. They do blend beautifully together but again, as they are so pigmented, it is important to keep in mind just how little you need.

The sequin shadows are some of the most impressive sequin formulas I’ve seen. Normally, the shades end up looking matte on the eyes, but this formula retains its sparkle flecks even with light blending. The matte shades are very pigmented and so far, I have not had any problems with them becoming muddy on the eyes. They do take a little more blending to get a seamless fade but it is possible with patience. Finally, we have the shimmer formula. These shimmers are extremely foiled on the eyes without need of being wet or applied with glitter glue. Overall, this is just one of my favorite shimmer formulas in the industry.

New Makeup Alert! Juvia’s Place The Tribe Highlighter in Vol. 3

Published on by LineEmUpMakeupLeave a comment

Today, I have a very important post. I am an American and white at that, but it is important for me to say that I wholeheartedly support the Black Lives Matter movement and if you are looking for more information to educate yourself on the movement, then please check out my Instagram or Twitter (@lineemupmakeup on both platforms). With this in mind, I am on a mission to educate myself and invest my dollars in black-owned brands. I am embarrassed to say that these companies are not well represented in my collection and I am working to change that. One of the items in my collection is from the brand Juvia’s Place. I am going to be talking about The Tribe Highlight Vol. 3 which is now one of my favorite highlighters in my collection.

This formula is extremely buttery. Volume 3 is a champagne color and while it looks a bit darker in the pan, when applied to the skin, the pearls in the formula shine through and create a beautiful sheen on the skin. The color is perfect for my complexion (light skin toned) and honestly even though this is new, it has already become a go-to highlighter.

This is a cream-to-powder formula so it adheres to the skin and lasts all day. You can apply this highlighter with a brush or your finger and if you spray the highlighter, it does amp up the shine.
