This is the very neutral look that I did using the Makeup Revolution
Reloaded Basic Matte Palette. It is as the name suggests, very basic and very
matte. I apologize for the unexciting eye look, it looks a lot better in
person. In person it looks natural and well-groomed, but in the photo it just
looks like I barely have eyeshadow on.
So here are the swatches on my arm with a clean finger and
no primer. These are just one swatch, except the first couple of shades where I
tried to intensify the colours a little because it matches my skin tone almost
exactly and can’t be seen. The formula is really nice, soft and smooth, and the
colour shows up well. It was easy to blend and that is really important in
neutral colours, because they are mostly
used for a light wash of colour all over the lid and crease, and to help
the other colours blend better. I feel like this would be a dupe for the Viseart
Neutral Matte palette, but these perform better in my opinion. I am not a fan of
Viseart formulas, I find them overpriced and overhyped.

Since I didn’t wear them long, I have no idea if they last
long on the eyes. I will have to test that out another day, and do a check in
after 8 hours.
Overall, I’m really happy with the palette. There are way
too many similar colours, I feel like there could be more of a difference among
the colours, but for the price (5 euro), I really can’t complain. The formula
is better than Essence and Catrice shadows in the same price point, and on par
with Morphe and BH cosmetics. This is the most boring palette out of them all, and
I would recommend this for people who are looking for a palette for work. It’s
not as warm as most palettes are these days, and that makes them look more
professional and contoured. It can also be used as a complementary palette to
other all-shimmer palettes, so it is quite versatile.
