I'm finally here with the second part of my Juvia's Place Collection!
In this post, I'll be showing swatches of the Douce, Festival, and Magic Mini Palettes!
The Douce Palette
The Douce Palette |
This palette contains a lovely duochrome shade, specifically the shade Tart which is the middle shade in the top row. It has the most beautiful purple/pink shift, that adds a beautiful pop to the lid or inner corner of the eye. In swatches, it looks like a bright white however, once you see the shift, you'll fall in love. Initially, I was hesitant to purchase this palette because I thought the colours would be too soft for my skin tone, however, the pigment is strong, and they show up beautifully. I believe this is available at Starlite for approximately TT$175.
Swatches
Shades from left to right: Chocolat, Tart, Creme, Macarons, Custard, Puffs, Berry Mousse, Mont Blanc, Crepes. |

This isn't your everyday, work appropriate palette, however, if you want to be daring, this palette gives you bold and striking colours, with Juvia's Place signature eyeshadow quality. Now I will say for a beginner, this isn't a good palette to start with because it can be very intimidating. This is what I consider to be a great companion palette. You can use it with your favourite neutral palette to add a bold pop of colour to your makeup look. This is currently my least used palette from JP, however, I am challenging myself to use it more in 2020. Oro, Aba, and Odogwu, are my go to shades from this palette for a simple eye look with a pop. Uli can be used for a blinding inner corner or face highlight (if you're daring enough). It runs for a similar price to the Douce in Starlite, which has one of the best prices for Juvia's Place (JP) products.

Magic Mini Palette |
This palette is beautiful and versatile. The top half of this palette is filled with lovely warm-toned shadows, while the bottom half is all cool-toned. Most the shades in this palette carry JP's signature, soft buttery formula with the exception of Ife (bottom left), and Yejide (bottom right). Both these shades are drier than JP's usual matte formula, however, they are still very pigmented. These shades need to be used carefully as the can be difficult to blend if too much is applied; it's better to slowly build and blend these shades. I purchased mine at Bella Russe for approximately TT$250+, but you may be able to find it cheaper in other stores.
Swatches
Shades (left to right): Nubia, Zakiya, Osun, Kesi, Zuba, Nana, Boronu, Kogi. |
Shades (left to right): Faso, Aja, Vai, Yemoja, Ife, Yara, Buzo, Yejide. |

I've recently added the Warrior 2 and Masquerade palettes to my collect so I may do a part 3 of this series at some point. However, I feel as though it is quite repetitive to share my love for JP's eyeshadows. For the quality, and quantity of eyeshadows for the price Juvia's Place is unbeatable. I may branch out in 2020 and try some other eyeshadow palettes from different brands, and do a review on those.
I'm trying to get back into the swing of blogging, and trying to motivate myself to be consistent this year. Thank you all for always coming by and checking out my blog despite my long hiatus.
Love you all, and I will see you again very soon.
