Boulevard de Beauté Palette review!

Today I want to do a quick review of the "Boulevard de Beauté" Palette.
It does not have a specific name, but this is what it looks like:

If you open it up, there are a couple of drawers to slide out. All opened up, it looks like this:

As you can see, it includes 20 eyeshadows, 8 lip glosses, 2 powders, 6 foundations and 5 pieces that I would probably describe as "paint pots". Along with all of this, 8 brushes are included, 2 of which are lip brushes. The other 8 are eyeshadow applicators.
There is also a large mirror included.

I will start reviewing the eyeshadows first.

                                         For easier understanding, I numbered them.

SWATCHES (my hand was prepped with a medium coverage foundation):
A1: A white eyeshadow with a frost finish. At first it looks a bit chalky, but if you blend it in properly, it looks really cool!
A2: A light to mint green eyeshadow, also with a frost finish. It looks fairly bright in the pan, but it translates onto the skin a bit more muted. However, it is still a bit too bright to be a mint green colour.
A3: A light blue eyeshadow. Frost finish again. The first swatch doesn't do it justice, because my flash hit it directly, thus making it look lighter.
A4: A dark blue to teal eyeshadow, with an almost matte finish. It has really little bits of glitter in it, but it isn't too present. Probably my favourite in this part of the palette.
A5: Another dark blue shadow. This one has less green in it, making it a rather clean blue. This has more of a semi-frost finish with microfine silver glitter. You can't see it in the picture, though.

B1: A grey-ish purple eyeshadow with a frost finish. It looks very good as a slightly tinted highlight (in the middle of the lid)
B2: Very similar to B2, but this one is slightly more purple. These two colours blend into each other quite nicely.
B3: A rather sheer lilac shadow. This one also has microfine silver glitter in it. I think this would be a very good colour for spring time!
B4: This is a very beautiful taupe-y lilac colour. This has a frost finish too.
B5: Similar to B4, but a bit more on the taupe side. Again, these last two colours are very similar.


Overall, I really like this side of the palette. However, I wish there were more matte colours!


C1: This shadow has a really pretty baby pink colour with a (who would've guessed?) frost finish. This could be used as a highlight anywhere, but I find it juuust a little bit too shimmery.
C2: A very light champagne colour (frost finish - again!). This doesn't show up from every angle, so it can be used as just a really subtle all over the lid colour.
C3: A slightly orange-y champagne colour. Very pretty, looks fairly natural. Frost finish.
C4: This is a very pigmented orange-red brown colour. I think it would look great with any of the lighter colours on this side of the palette! It thankfully has a matte finish!
C5: A slightly darker reddish brown colour. It has very subtle glitter in it, but unless you get up close, it isn't very noticeable.

D1: This shadow is a quite sheer salmon colour. This has a shimmery to frost finish, but it is very subtle and not too harsh either.
D2: A quite unusual reddish orange colour with a matte finish. Very pretty, very unlike anything else I own.
D3: This is a very shimmery pinkish red colour. If it wasn't that shimmery,
you could probably use it as a blush!
D4: A very pretty bronze colour with a hint of red. It is shimmery, but more like metallic.
D5: A rather dark, dusty brown colour. It looks a bit like ash, but with shimmer ;)

Overall, I like all of these colours, but the ones that are richer in colour appeal to me the most!

Now on to the "paint pots"!

These come in white, lilac/pink, creme, blue and green!

 <-- White: A very pretty, sheer white (that is packed with glitter and shimmer). Even though it is quite sheer, it is noticeable due to the glitter/shimmer.

Lilac:                                                                   -->
Also quite sheer, but again; noticable due to the shimmer/glitter. It would probably be very pretty as a highlight with just a hint of colour (on the lid).                                    

<-- Creme:
Unlike the previous two colours, this one is quite pigmented! Again, it has tons of glitter and shimmer in it! And like most of the powder eyeshadows, this has a frost finish.

Blue:                                                                   -->
This creme eyeshadow is absolutely gorgeous!! In the picture, it looks a bit sheer, but it is definitely bulidable!

Green: This color is a beautiful light green color with a hint of lime. Again, this is definitely buildable!

Overall, these are great! They're cream eyeshadows that dry to a powder form. I think it's amazing how much you can build 'em up to reach opaqueness!

Now, on to the rest of the palette!

Like I said in the beginning of this review, the palette comes with two powders. I think they are good for beginners, but they definitely can't reach the quality of any high-end make-up brands!

I didn't swatch them, because my camera couldn't capture it well enough. But I think you can imagine what they look like, but they are pretty much just regular pressed face powders!

They only come in two different shades, but considering this is a palette that has pretty much everything except for blushes, it's quite awesome!

The palette also came with 8 lip glosses, but as I put them on my lips, they didn't really add colour. :(

Last, but not least; the palette also came with 6 "foundations". I put that in quotation marks, because I honestly wouldn't use it as a full face foundation. Maybe as a concealer. Maybe.

They have great coverage, but they also look a bit cakey on the skin. As a concealer, however, I think it might actually work!

So yeah, that pretty much concludes my extremely long review of this palette! I do not know where and if this is available anywhere in the world. I bought it at a local grocery store for €9.99. 

I know it's a German brand or at least that usually German bloggers write about it, but I bet you could get their products somewhere online. So yeah, if you made it this far: thanks a lot! If you could do me a favor and share this with your friends, that'd be awesome! 

Thanks :D
