So far, I’m loving the bareMinerals seasonal offerings. However, even though it’s destined for Christmas, bareMinerals The Magic Act Palette I think is going to see you long beyond winter and well into spring. Kind of wishing that all these shades came in a regular palette.
bareMinerals The Magic Act Palette is a fold-out palette in a board casing – starting with eye shades and ending with suggested looks which I always think is a great idea. Not everyone knows how to do everything so it’s just a helpful pointer.
The six strong eye selection kicks off with pastels into and segues into richer brown shades. Pinks and browns are really a winner anyway – they really do that Kardashian eye thing so well.

Swatch-wise, the colours came out nice and strong with one stroke of the brush only – from top to bottom are Celebrate (a matte light cream), Fortune (a matte baby pink), Shazam (a gold shot shimmer pink), A-Ha (a shimmering taupe), Pumped (a lightly sparkled deep brown) and Foreshadow (a dark matte maron).
The second row of colours consists of luminzed cheek shades – The Premiere is a lightly golden shade, The Close Call is more of a bronze, The Natural High is a beautiful pink/peach/gold that gives cheeks a pop of colour and finally, The Indecent Proposal is more of a cool toned rose pink – great for emphasising cheek bones.
I’d easily wear all of these shades – there isn’t a bum note in the whole palette. There is a mirror in the palette, but no brush, which is a bit of a shame but otherwise, it’s all good. It’s £35 HERE.

This is beautiful! I don’t think a bareMinerals Christmas product has ever excited me, but this is really lovely and not stupidly expensive!

I think this palette would be very useful to those with warm toned complexions. Alas for the rest of us who are cool toned, this isn’t the palette for us. Hopefully the quality is way better than their recent eye colour pencils.
