So this week I’ve been playing around with the Makeup Revolution :Forever Flawless Bird of Paradise palette . This is my first Makeup Revolution palette and has 18 shadows . 3 of the shadows are jelly eyeshadows , they have like a squish to them and 2 pressed glitters, along with nice selection of colorful mattes . I have yet to try every single shadow so I’m putting off the review till I’ve used every color , but I thought I would share a look that I did today.


For my look today I used Nyx white base , and afterwards I used my UD pigment brush and patted on the bright pink shade Vaycay , afterwards I used a fluffy brush to blend it out . I wanted a darker color near my V area so i tried using Tail Feather( the Magenta) but it wasn’t quite dark enough so I added Adventure(the dark purple) its still not super dark but it did the job. I then loaded up a finger brush with the squishy orange (Exotic) . It bunched up a bit , I wonder if it doesn’t work well over the Nyx Base. So instead I patted on Toucan Play( matte light orange) then I used my finger to pat on Exotic. This worked a lot better than the brush. Afterwards I patted on the gold Jelly shimmer , Fiesta on the inner corner of my eye. I was feeling adventurous so I’m like lets throw on pressed Glitter too and added Love Birds to the purple V of my eye look. Now I was a little apprehensive with the pressed glitters since depending on the size , can be dangerous . But I felt like these are safe-ish to use and my eyes were already kind if sticky from the primer . I didn’t notice any fallout with Love Birds. And because my brow was looking kind of naked ,Cockatoo was brushed on.

Well I was pretty happy with how this look came together . I’m still learning how to use the squishy shadows , they’re a bit strange to me . But the gold is probably one of the nicest gold shades in my collection , even rivaling an Urban Decay gold that I own . The squishy orange color is a bit more finicky though . I’ll try it next with a glitter glue .

Overall I really like this palette , but have been so busy that I haven’t really had the time to take pictures . I’ve played with pretty much all the greens , pinks, purples, and both blue shades. Yesterday I felt a bit experimental and did a green and orange look partially inspired by one of the Jem and the Holograms characters. I didn’t feel like it came out exactly as I hoped , so no pictures of that look . But I learned that the light green and the turqouise color look great blended together . And it even slightly stained my eyes . So its pretty pigmented , maybe not Juvia’s Place pigmented but still buildable and bright. Well I should have more pics up later this week or next week , plus a full review . Thanks for reading and let me know what you think of jelly shadows and your favorite shadow textures are.
Okay first off love this color combo and how it looks with your vibrant hair color! Also, I love the sound of jelly eyeshadows. Those glitters are gorgeous!

Oh thanks ☺️The jelly shadows are pretty shimmery . I think the gold especially is one of my favorite golds in my shadow collection . Hot Tropic is also pretty cool to use , its more silvery . I’ll have to post a look with that one as well.
