Huge Palladio Beauty Haul | Review

If you have been following my blog, you must know how big makeup fanatic I am. I just love to buy and try new products at the moment they hit the market. So when finally Palladio started their Indian website, I was actually very happy. I have been eyeing their products and have tried a couple of them for quite some time now. They are botanical and vitamin-infused cosmetics which means less harsh chemicals and more good beauty elements. According to Palladio Beauty India website, their products are saturated with antioxidant vitamins like A, C, D & E; and powerful botanicals like anti-inflammatory green tea, soothing aloe and energizing ginseng, all formulated to amp up your skin. So, I got my hands on some of their popular products and here are they!

Palladio Velvet Matte Cream Lip Color - LV01 Angora

Palladio’s Velvet Matte Cream is a lush velvety liquid lip colour which has a lasting and rich matte finish. It features a full coverage lightweight formula that is enriched with vitamin E and aloe to keep lips nourished and soft for long hours.

Features:

• Velvety matte finish 
• The moisturizing fluid cream formula 
• Applied with a doe-foot applicator

It is a beautiful red lip colour with orange warm undertones. I love how this is amazingly pigmented and stays on my lips for hours while I enjoy eating and drinking. This lip colour can survive it all. However, it does transfer a little, but worth trying!

Pros

• Amazingly pigmented.
• Very smooth application 
• dries down to a velvety matte finish
• Long lasting
• Budget-friendly
• Travel-friendly
• Contains Vitamin E
• Does not dry out the lips

Cons

• Transfers a little

Very moisturising lip balms. I have tried 2 shades and both are nourishing as well as moisturising. Sangria is my new favourite while Golden pink is only for when I am in the mood for glitters. I have slightly dark lips so Golden pink does not suit them, yet I love to add a swipe of golden glitters on my lips adding a layer of moisture loaded glitters. On the other hand, Sangria is dark wine coloured lip balm with maroonish glitter particles which are very subtle. 

Pros

• Very moisturising lip balms
• Has glitter with a tint
• Sangria is the darkest shade giving wine colour to lips; Golden pink has a very slight pink tint and loads of golden glitter.
• Prevents lip chapping
• Little goes a long way

Cons

• Golden pink has too much of glitters
• A little pricey. 
• Presence of glitter can be a turn off for many

Maybe due to the shade, but this eye shadow is not that pigmented. It is loaded with glitters, yes, very minute glitter particles which are visible in a single swipe. It is a good palette which can be used as a highlighter as well as nude eye shadow for daily use.

Pros

• Very smooth application
• Contains minute glitter particles, good for highlighting
• Perfect shade for an everyday nude look
• Safflower Seed Oil, Ginseng Root, Aloe Extract and Ginkgo Biloba

Benefits of rice for skin are known in Asian beauty and now it is included in this face powder as rice starch. It is really smooth and soft to touch. I have an oily T-zone which is quite prominent in the summer season or as the day goes by. This face powder helps me to control it without looking too whitish on my skin or making it too dry. Really like it. I hope it had a few more shades for darker skin tones.

Pros

• Contains Rice Starch
• Mattifies skin getting rid of an oily look.
• Did not break me out
• Quantity is good
• Contains a puff for application
• Budget friendly

Cons

• The packaging is so not travel friendly. I love the product but hate the packaging
• May contain parabens

This was my take on all these Palladio beauty products available on Indian website. If you love mineral infused products, you must give these a try as well. You will love them, especially the liquid matte lipstick.
