Beauty Bay had a 30% off sale on last week on selected products, and the Life's A Drag palette was included in that sale so I had to pick it up. I have been meaning to get this since it first came out, but at this pacific time in my life, makeup is far from my mind. But here we are so let's get talking about this bad boy.
P a c k a g i n g
I have to say this palette is very unique, The packaging is straight to the point.
Its called Life's a Drag palette, so of course the cover was going to be Drag makeup which I mean gets you talking for sure, If you don't like dramatic then this is not for you but definitely don't knock it until you try it. It certainly drags you in even if you don't do makeup, but for anyone who does It is definitely a palette you want after just seeing the packaging. The palette itself is a very nice size, and quiet heavy. If I didn't know the price of this palette and just went off the packaging and shadows, I would easily say it costs €50.
Contains a little sized mirror, enough to see your eye makeup in and a double ended eyeshadow brush too, so you get what you paid for if you did pay the full price.

There are a great variety of colours in this eyeshadow palette, One end has Neutrals, Middle has 2 shimmers and the other end has some pops of colours. So ideally this is a great palette to creative whatever your heart desires.
Texture wise they are all quiet soft and smooth. Except the black, the eyeshadow is much more rough which would explain why the pigmentation is so good.
you can pretty much tell that this is going to be a good palette just by looking and swatching a couple of shades.

Seriously like does the pigmentation not speak for itself? Especially that black eyeshadow like can you cope? I'm obsessed with the pigmentation, why did I not buy this sooner.....
I am extremely impressed with this palette straight of the bat. It's a good all around for everyone!
When I got this palette, I played with it straight away. I didn't get to sit down and properly have a little play like I like to do with all my new palettes, because I was busy But I just had to try it, and yes the pigmentation on the eyes is second to none. Definitely does not disappoint and I can promise you that. I used all of the neutral shades and I am obsessed with them now, I'm normally a burnt orange kind of gal but I'm gone straight back to the browns now after using this palette. but I will only use this palette to do so because I know it wont let me down.
My overall thoughts
Considering Manny Mua is a beauty Youtuber, I should of knew this palette was going to be good. Beauty Youtubers seem to know what they are doing lately with producing their own makeup.
Personally I think this palette is a winner, The pigmentation is amazing!!!! the packaging is so unique, and they perform better on the eyes than I could of ever imagined. I am head over heels in love.... I only payed €24 for this, like what the hell? I would easily pay €50 no doubt about it.
If you like makeup honestly you need to buy it, The perfect palette to have, even if you don't like makeup buy it! because you have all your neutrals which are safe and if you ever wanted to jazz it up there are the pops of colour to make it that little bit more funkier.
I hope you enjoyed this review, and I will be back very soon with more posts, so keep your eyes peeled.
Thanks so much for reading.
