Let's talk about the 350 Bandwagon

Okay, if you're in the beauty community and you don't know anything about the Morphe 35O palette, then you've been living under a rock. This isn't some kind of popular clique superiority complex; literally, the damn palette is everywhere. From the moment I stepped foot into the beauty community, in particular Instagram, I was slapped right in the mouth with the 35O palette; everybody had it, everybody wanted it, and it was (is) always, always, sold out.

For the longest time I hated that damn palette, because I couldn't get away from it. I didn't have it, I didn't want it, and I didn't care, but everyone was obsessed. Restocks came and went and the shits sold like hot cakes, and I rolled my eyes and kept scrolling every time it showed up on my Instagram feed.

But then, one day, a restock came, and I figured...what the hell, why not.

I was on a Morphe binge. I had just ordered two of the 12 pans from the website, had managed to get my hands on the 35U for stupid cheap on Facebook (seriously, get over the concept of used makeup and join those groups; you won't regret it), and then I won the 35D in an IG giveaway, and I wanted more. So, when the restock happened, I threw my credit card at it, and it was mine.

And I love it.

Now, I'm a warm undertone kind of girl, and this palette is, for the most part, warm undertoned, which is perfect for me. I thought that the Makeup Revolution Flawless Matte palette was the perfect transition palette, and it actually is a really great matte palette, but this palette is perfect for me specifically. So, for today, since I actually went to work, I decided to do a One Palette Wonder featuring (or starring, rather) the infamous Morphe 35O.

A little "the store is finally closed get tf out" finesse action:

And a closeup on the eyes:

 

I. Loved. It! I didn't have to use any other palettes for this look, and I was completely satisfied with the result. Perfect, I said! Perfect! Details!
