Subculture Eyeshadow Palette [DISCONTINUED]

I bought this at TJ Maxx for 10 USD, and I think that is as high as I would pay for it. This palette has an incredibly steep learning curve, and there are limits to the looks you can create due to the shadows' performances.

I'll start with the negatives. The majority of these shadows layer poorly. Yes, they are pigmented, but they also do not survive layering or blending well …Read more

First of all, thank god I got this at Marshall's for $14 instead of the full $42. For the shade selection and pigmentation, it's not worth more than a drugstore palette. Some of the shades look wonderful on me, and paired with my Too Faced Eyeshadow Insurance primer, they appear bright and last all day...after about 3-4 layers, that is. The problem with the palette is that for its few …Read more

Well, it's not Made in China, like most of her makeup. I got this at TJ Maxx for half price and it's not bad at all. I mean, I don't wear eyeshadow like a Youtuber. There is no way I can go to work and be taken seriously by my co-workers wearing Youtube or Instagram eyeshadow/makeup. With that said, if you put these colors on with a light hand, it will look like any other eyeshadow …Read more

I absolutely love this palette. The pigments are so creamy and nice on my lids. I use a very light hand so I had no trouble blending and had absolutely no fall out! I know a lot of people have mixed reviews or weren’t fans of the palette but it’s easily in my top 3 favorite palettes! I definitely recommend not being heavy handed if you’re new to using pigment palettes.

I’m not sure what all the drama is around this palette – its not the greatest but its far from the worst out there.

I put off purchasing this until it was on sale (half price), due to the terrible reviews – I am VERY glad I did grab this because it’s a very unique palette IMO and quite a different color story than anything else in my collection. I really love how pigmented many of the …Read more

Patchy shadows, poorly pigmented, tons of fallout. I can’t do anything with this palette. Waste of money.

I bought this last year. I kept avoiding it because I had seen all of the negative reviews so I figured it would just be a big disappointment but I still stopped to admire the colors every time I was in Sephora. Finally I could resist the temptation no longer and I bought in spite of all the awful things I had heard.

I have to say I have created some really beautiful looks with this …Read more

I’m gonna yank this baby up in ratings! Yes there’s kickback (powder) but the colors are so rich and pigmented you only need a light touch. Placing colors works better for me than blending/dragging, with a stiff pencil brush to blur edges. What I like the most is how good it is for a mature face - lots of mattes, no chunky glitter but good shimmers, and rich but wearable colors. I can’t pull off …Read more

Here is my story: I loved the color scheme. I find it very flattering and very inspiring. But after reading all the reviews and watching all the youtube videos on it, I decided to give it a pass. Then, I found the Revolution (Iconic Division) dupe in store and thought I would give it a try. I loved loved the Revolution one. I had some pigmentation/blendability issues, but really nothing …Read more

I use it in combination with Prism palette especially when using green shades.
For my skin tone I find Edge not to be so flattering, but it is one shade. As for the formula, it is same as Prism or Modern Reneissance, you simply have to get used to it if you never used it before.
I think someone might think of it as a bold palette, due to shades it delivers, but I think that it can also …Read more
