Maybelline The Burgundy Bar Reviews

A rich nude palette with 12 different shades. Perfect for a day look or use the darker shades for a more moody palette.

The products had good depth and they lasted well. This is a very versatile palette that everyone can use, be it if you want a glamour look or a more natural look.

I've used palettes that cost twice as much and this is just as good. If you are considering a value for money long lasting versatile colour palette save your time and just grab this one.

I LOVED this. It made my eyes dazzle for my christmas work function. Its quite a loose 'powdery palette' so you need to make sure you are tapping away the excess product before applying to your lids.

Theres a wide range of colours to create both bold and natural shimmery looks. I am a massive fan of golds as they look super flattering on most eyeshapes and make the inner of my eye POP.

There were no nasty smells either and the palette comes with a cute brush- easy to pop in your hand bag and touch up throughout the day.

Durability was great, generous pans of the product would make a great christmas gift for someone. So much prettyness !

I was very excited to receive this to trial, the burgundy bar contains all of my favourite natural hues and plum shades. Of the 12 shades, 10 are shimmer and 2 are matte. I feel these are a good combo of colours. The payoff is not bad, it does the job fine, altho I did find they didnt blend very well. An overlay of shimmer fixes it fine however. The brush which comes with the palette is rather undesirable, the only thing I find it ok for is applying shimmer to the inside of my eye, or highlighting brow bone. With plenty of colours this palette will last you a long time. At approx $30 for this palette there are many options in the same price range so do your research and visit a store for swatches.

Love these colors. I'm not a big wearer of eyeshadow but these colour eye gorgeous. It was a fight with my mum and daughter over who was keeping them, I won but they both used it to.

The case is likely and it's great how you can see all the colours, nice and sparkly.

They went on smoothly and didn't cake or sit in creases. My mum is in her 60's and she said she's going out next week to buy it since I won't give it to her.

I love palette selections like these you've got so many colours to blend and play with and i think they are such great value for money so i was delighted to be able to review this palette. Its a good sturdy size but not too big to fit in your makeup bag. I find each colour is a nice powdery consistency and like most eyeshadows the more you add on the deeper the colour. I don't like the small brush/applicator that comes with but I'm never a fan of those so i use my own eyeshadow brush. So much fun had with playing and blending colours and i find the staying power quite good and it comes off well with micellar water. This is a goody and most likely a staple in my life.

This is such a lovely palette, full of beautiful shimmery shades. I don’t wear eye shadow a lot but this is great to wear on a special occasion.

The colours are just gorgeous and gives you such a selection of lovely colours that are so shimmery.

Maybelline has come out with another winner for this palette. It is one of my favourite palettes. The eye shadow formula is really nice too.

This is at a reasonable price point and definitely worth it! I just love the colours.

Firstly, thanks Beauty Review for the chance to trial this palette.

I was excited to try a new palette, I own quite a few but I think you can never have enough. There are 12 different colours giving you some good options for different looks to create. The colours were a mix of quite nude and pinkish tones which work well together. There is a small amount of shimmer which I love so that made me happy.

There are tips and suggestions on the back of the palette to help you if you are a bit of a novice, always nice to see what others can do with the same make up.

It comes with a brush, which has a brush on one end and a sponge on the other end. I actually dont enjoy using the brushes that come with palettes, I prefer my own.

I found that using a primer helped the shadow stay on for the day, I feel if you were going out after work you would need to freshen it up before you went out, but good for the day. A good point was there was no fallout, phew! That is the worst thing.

Overall I feel this is a good palette, easy to use. I dont think there is a lot of product in the pans, they seem a bit shallow but with make up having expiry dates that is probably a good thing, you may end up using it all before it expires.

This palette comes In an attractive burgundy coloured case with rose gold writing and see through panel on top. Good selection of 10 shimmery shades and two matte shades. Comes with a double ended applicator, brush and foam tip, reasonably priced and a beautiful array of shades from dark brown to coppery gold and light shades. I would recommend this palette to anyone who wants a reasonably priced and good quality palette.

I haven’t purchased Maybelline eyeshadows for a long long time, I went for higher end shadows like Urban Decay, Anastasia Beverly Hills, etc. and I have to say I’m positively surprised at just how amazing and pigmented this palette is! All these shades are crazy pigmented, they look so amazing and pretty. The colours are beautiful and blend well together, they last the whole day for me, even though I work in a bakery, so working close to and opening ovens all the time, yet my eyeshadow game is still strong at the end of the day, I don’t really use a primer or base either, I just tap my powder foundation on my lids lightly with a brush and that’s it. This palette has 2 matte shades, a darker one on bottom right that’s perfect for my eyebrows and to smoke out my lower lash line and a medium brown colour to blend on the top right corner. Also one highlighter shade to go in the corners of my eye and under my brows, that’s on the top left corner in the palette. Depending on your skin colour you might be able to use the colour underneath this for highlighting as well though! The rest of the colours for me are all pretty eyelid colours and I love the darker shades to go all over the lid, if I’m feeling fancy I do half-half: darker colour on the outside half of my lids and a lighter one inside. I love how many different looks I’ve created already and I’ve only had this palette for about a week! Looks great with or without a black eyeliner on, I prefer without for day looks and liner for evening outings. I don’t really care for the brush that comes with the palette though, to small to hold comfortably, so I just use my own brushes. It would be great if there would be another blending shade like a medium rosey/plummy colour, because I’ll definitely use up that one matte blending shade first, but I’m not too mad about it as I have other palettes that have more matte shades that I can use alongside this palette. All in all, I highly recommend this palette, I think it’s great quality and if you like the look of the colours you will enjoy this palette a lot. I definitely should’ve given more attention to drugstore brands as I feel they picked up their game a lot in recent years!

Thank you BR for allowing me to review this product.

I really like this maybelline burgundy palette so much! It's perfect for every day and night time wear. The eye shadows are quite pigmented and blend nicely. The brush that comes with the palette is pretty average, i just ended up using my own brushes as that's what i prefer. Id say the only down side to this palette is that it needs more matte shades. This is so affordable. Overall id buy this for a gift and for my self if i needed to again!
