A little while ago (oh who am I kidding, ages ago!) I won an awesome giveaway run by my lovely friend Sarah, who writes More Than Adored. She was generous enough to give away the amazing Lorac Pro Palette, something I've had my eye on for a long time; and as luck would have it, I was the lucky winner! So before I talk about how awesome this palette really is, a big thank you to the gorgeous Sarah for being so generous!
The colour selection is perfect. The top row is all mattes, while the bottom row is all shimmers. Definitely a winner if you're wanting to take this travelling, so you have the perfect combination for day and night looks, all in the one palette!
The palette also comes with a bonus eye shadow primer, which is pretty good in itself! It's no better than the eye shadow primers I usually use, but definitely no worse!
White, Cream, Taupe, Lt.Pink, Mauve, Sable, Espresso, Black
Nude, Champagne, Gold, Lt.Bronze, Pewter, Garnet, Deep Purple, Slate
I'm absolutely in love with the colours - all of them! I find myself using the matte colours more often though, despite being a shimmer girl myself, as they are so creamy and easy to work with! (I think my aversion to matte finish is due to using cheaper brands that can sometimes come out chalky and difficult to blend!) The darker colours are definitely my favourite, and require an extremely light touch as they are so pigmented! I also adore the first four of the shimmers, as they keep things light and breezy and are oh so beautiful when swatched!

Overall, the Lorac Pro Palette has to be one of my favourites, and most often reached for palettes! I have no idea why it's taken me so long to actually review it, and for that I apologise! I promise you, if there is one palette that you need - it's this one!
Again, a giant thank you to the lovely Sarah for sending this to me! She chose her giveaway prize perfectly! Unfortunately this one can be a bit tough to get your hands on in Australia, but there are a few online stores you can purchase this baby from!
Have you tried the Lorac Pro Palette before? If so, what did you think? Have you ever won anything this amazing?
Although this was a giveaway prize from a friend, all opinions are honest!
lovely post! I've always wanted the exact Lorac palette! Hopefully santa read my wish list this year! x
ReplyDeleteThank you! Hopefully you get this from Santa, hehe, it's a great palette! xx
DeleteThis palette looks so good and I really like that theres a whole row of matte shades instead of the usual one or two you find in other palettes!
ReplyDeleteI know, and I can't believe how often I find myself reaching for the mattes instead - put them there and we will use them haha! xx
DeleteSo jelly! Lucky duck xx

You need this, Kat! xx
DeleteYou lucky girl! I've had my eye on this palette, it looks so gorgeous. Love the idea of the matte shades on the top!
ReplyDeleteI think the mattes are a big seller, especially for those who don't wear a lot of eyeshadows (since most of them seem to be packed with glitter lol!) xx
DeleteOh congrats!! I think one of my happiest wins was the Naked Basics palette. I have had my eye on this Lorac Pro Palette one for ages. It's so difficult to get though and I keep waiting and trying to convince myself to forget about it. It looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mandy! That's an awesome win, too! I would have loved that one! I think the Lorac Pro is a must have, but I definitely see your point - it's a pain in the butt to try and get here! xx
DeleteI love when palettes come with primers, it's just a nice touch. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm not usually big on neutrals (I have a couple of great palettes and that's all I need - they all look similar once on anyway) but this palette is quite pretty. :)
It really is! I know what you mean though, neutral can only be so different from other neutrals... but I really like this one :D
Deletexx

Aw of course I love it! Thank you sooo much! xx
DeleteCongratulations Jasmine!
ReplyDeleteI've seen nothing but rave reviews about this palette so it still sits firmly at the top of my wishlist - you've got to love a palette which carries matte and shimmer shades!
Aw thanks Vita! I can definitely see this being a favourite of yours! :)
DeleteCould you please tell what online store I can buy this amazing palette from that will deliver to Australia, thanks
