Oh… my! I don’t often get stopped in my tracks but I think Terry has met a unicorn. Or a mermaid – maybe both. These new palettes are like candy – I can’t stop looking at them. The bright one is called Fun’Tasia and the neutral is Pixie Nude.

The idea for these comes from gaming pixels and there is something very satisfactory about the tidiness and geometry of them. The external square is a smooth matte shade while the core square is high, high shimmer. You need to be a bit careful because the textures are entirely different, so you’re likely to go a bit harder on the matte than you should on the shimmer. The shimmer is so soft and buttery in texture that it needs the lightest possible touch.

Although I’m obsessed with the Fun’Tasia palette for its rainbow shades, I think in reality, I’m more likely to use this one more often (really not sure that I can do a yellow eye!). There isn’t a colour in Pixie Nude that I wouldn’t happily put on my lids. The included brush, by the way, is decent quality but it’s not the one I’d reach for to apply I don’t think.

All the shimmers gleam like the gold which has caught the light better at the end of the swatch row – but if you want them even more glowy, you can wet them down which would work beautifully as a liner.

I mean, really – on a fiery hot day, I can see myself dipping into that purple or aqua shade for light catchy lids. Bottom line is that I think this palette is risky in terms of getting use out of it, but if you’re up for working it out as you go along and you’ll smile every time you open it, why not! They’re £38 (which I think is quite reasonable for this brand) at SpaceNK HERE.

    Can’t believe they are only £38, I was expecting the £55ish mark! I did see these in Space NK in Oxford last week but I have so many eye palettes I’ve barely made a dent in that I had to resist buy I g another one. They are beautiful though!

    I spotted these back in January on Instagram and was obsessed with them. Kept asking in my local branch of SpaceNK when are they coming? I too was really surprised at the price, thought must be £60+. They arrived in the store two weeks ago, like you, Jane decided Pixie Nude was the one which would work for me. Of the other palette, only the lilac and pink shades would. Agree these are beautiful palettes and yes the shimmer is like butter. I was told to be careful with the shimmers as the SA said she got fall out from them. I have not, but I just lightly press on the eye and blend. By Terry really is stepping up the game these days.

  3. Your comment about the shimmery purple or blue on a fiery hot day has really got me questioning why I’ve never thought to do this before. This would be beautiful on a summer evening! I need to get myself a glitzy blue shadow immediately to try this out…

  4. I think these palettes are really cool, but agree with you, the chances are they probably won’t get the use…

    These look lovely but I’ll be honest I’m just sitting here trying to work out what “gaming pixels” are. Do they mean pixel art? What’s the relevance to gaming? I’ve been hoping we’d start to see some game tie ins with makeup brands, there are some really cool IPs that could inspire some great collections but I’m not sure I’m seeing the connection here.

      I think it’s purely using squares to create an overall ‘pixellated’ impression – would be very interesting to see some gaming tie ins (are we counting the Sonic x Glam Glow?) x

  6. The coloured one is stunning! I love those macaron tones and they actually look really wearable. Such a beautiful palette layout too.

  7. I thought I’d leave you a little comment here… I save up your blog and binge read… so here I am… and I’m here to say wow… also loving the panda punk mac collection… ad that dolce &gabanna palette oh and well loads of stuff, but just checking in to say hi really! This however, this was the post that prompted me to comment. LOVE YOU!
