EM by Michelle Phan Cosmetics Review

Here on the internet the name Michelle Phan is a person everyone has heard of either through her famous youtube channel, makeup line, jewelry line, Ipsy company, and other items. She is a huge success and I have been a huge fan of her ever since she started making videos on her patio in Florida. So, when she announced the launch of her own makeup line I was super excited and could not wait to try it out! I got two palettes in the Christmas sale and have been using them ever since to test out how I feel about them. I bought the holiday life: new year's countdown edition, and the winter life: ice bunny edition palette.

from left to right the blushes are:

new years countdown palette: countdown

ice bunny palette: snuggle up peach

The blushes are my favorite product from both palettes, they are so beautiful, pigmented, and just really nice colors and have good staying power. I would always find myself reaching back for the ice bunny palette for its blush which is probably the prettiest peach blush I own, no joke. 

Overal Opinion?

Packaging: A lot of people did not like the packaging, however I love it. Its heavy, not a cheap plastic and really chic and cute. My only problem with the packaging are the lip products in the palette, I barely use them not only due to pigmentation but also because eyeshadow fallout mixes in with them, and thats a real problem especially in the ice bunny palette because the black shadow would mix into the nude color (not cute).

Quality: All the eyeshadows were beautiful they are a mixture of glitter, shimmer, mattes, and the only one I didn't like was sequin dress its very patchy and has chunky glitters in it which I'm not a huge fan of. They all blend easily and are good quality, some of them you have to pack on like good cheers from the new years palette, but I find its fit for brown bone and not anything else. The lip colors in the ice bunny palette also were both just very sheer and don't show much pigmentation on the lips but they are still pretty nonetheless. In the new years palette the lip products were both quite pigmented and wear well.

Price: Her brand is a luxury brand so its not super cheap, however I bought mine during the christmas sale which was buy one get one free and I found a 15% percent off coupon with free shipping! So I paid roughly around 12.50 for each palette which is cheaper than some drugstore ones. I say her pricing is fine originally both palettes are $25 each, just keep a look out for sales she's always having them.

Overall I do like her mini life palettes, they do seem like they are travel friendly and they contain eye, lip and cheek products so its convenient. Tell me what you guys think of any of her products!
