SAUCEBOX 'CRÉME DE LA CRÉME' PALETTE REVIEW+SWATCHES


So today i come at you with a review for the SAUCEBOX Créme De La Créme palette. This palette is not new but its new to my stash. I have to tell you now itself that i love this palette. The size of the palette is so satisfying & the size of the individual pans itself is so pleasing, they are double the size of MAC shadows, so its def worth your money. The quality of this palette is outstanding. So without further ado lets get on with the review.


This palette contains 6 shadows which mainly lean towards the neutral family and are all warm tone apart from one shadow which is called Future which is a mid tone cool shadow. I have used these shadows dry and wet both and they work extremely well. They are pigmented as hell a lil really does goes a long way with these shadows. Picking up of the shadows is very smooth and great blendibilty runs consistently throughout the palette. 


Sea Shell: is a warm frost/pearl finish champagne shade which is great for inner corner highlight or brow bone highlight. There was little fallout in this shade but it went on buttery smooth. Blended well too. Sea Shell and Rain are both frost pearl finish and have a little fallout.

Rain: is again warm frost/pearl finish creme shade. This is again highly advisable for inner corner highlight and brow bone highlight. This shadow was buttery smooth and blended well too. I have used this one as a face highlight as well (thanks to the BIG pans) & it worked amazingly. 

Inception: is a warm tone brown shade with satin finish. One of the best and smoothest shadows i have ever experienced, the quality is at par with LORAC PRO shadows. This shade is an excellent addition to this neutral palette, the perfect brown to balance this palette out. 

Secrecy: is a medium warm tone taupy-greyish shade which is also a satin finish. This shade is great for an all over lid color and is great for crease blending aswell. This shadow is another one of my favs from this palette. Looks amazing just worn on its own too.  

Future: is again a medium warm/cool tone shadow which adds the perfect amount of 'coolness' to this otherwise warm neutral palette. Its great for creating a cooler eye look with an otherwise warm palette. This shadow also went on smooth and blended beautifully. 

Black Widow: is a medium intensity matte black shadow which is excellent for smoking out any look. This shadow was best used wet and was also very long wearing. There was a lil fallout with this shadow but nothing major. This can be packed on for building up the intensity. 


With all these shadows MAC FIX+ was my mixing medium. These shadows are worth every penny spent and i am so glad that i have 'another neutral' palette :D.  I know at first $40 seems a lot but given the size of each pan and the quality of this palette i am so glad i picked it up when i did. This palette is a great starter palette too. Its not travel friendly though as its a cardboard packaging, but it is sturdy enough. The fact that it has a full size mirror in there helps. Highly recommend this palette to all neutral eye lovers. 

PRICE: $40.

QUANTITY: Each shadow 4gms.

AVAILABILITY: Sauceboxcosmetics.com & local online retailers.
