Sunday Spotlight: The Jaclyn Hill x Morphe Palette

If you've been reading my blog then you know I am obsessed with the Highlight Queen, Jaclyn Hill. So it should be no surprise that when I heard the announcement that she was releasing a palette with Morphe, I damn near crapped my pants.   I have never purchased another eyeshadow palette (or any makeup actually) from Morphe except for ONE single-shadow ... and I am pretty certain that I have never used it.  So it's safe to say that the only part of the collaboration being with Morphe that got me excited was the guarantee that it would be inexpensive.  I was losing my mind because I knew that whatever Jaclyn created would be flawless and beautifully packaged.  And she did not disappoint!

This palette is absolutely incredible. I can't say enough good things about it... I am actually nearly speechless. You can create endless looks using this palette and the quality of the shadows is impeccable, especially given that the price is only $38.  What's even better? You can use code: JACATTACK to save 10%, bringing the price down to $34.20 for THIRTY FIVE SHADOWS... Thats less than a dollar a shadow!

Just to break that down for you, here are some other popular /similar palettes that launched this year:

Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance - 14 shadows x 0.02oz per shadow, $42
Marc Jacobs Beauty Eye-Conic in Scandalust - 8 shadows, 0.003oz per shadow, $49
Urban Decay Naked Heat - 12 shadows, 0.05oz per shadow, $52.
Sephora Pro Palette in Warm - 28 shadows, 0.04oz per shadow, $68
Natasha Denona Sunset - 15 shadows, 0.08oz per shadow, $129

Meanwhile, The Jaclyn Hill x Morphe palette is 35 shadows, 0.056oz per shadow, and around $35. Talk about VALUE! You are definitely getting the most bang for your buck if you choose this palette.

If you've been wanting to invest in an eyeshadow palette but didn't know where to start, this is it! And honestly, if you're not a makeup psycho, such as myself, this may be the only palette you ever need... for life.  Of course, there's the issue that it keeps selling out in under an hour but it is truly worth setting an alarm, stalking the internet, and waiting 10 minutes to checkout.  You will not regret it.
