I have been waiting to see the Freedom Makeup The House of GlamDolls palettes ever since I saw a sneaky peek of the collaboration on Instagram, so when one dropped through my letterbox I was even more excited. If you haven't seen them, then I have one to share with you, but the palettes are a partnership between Makeup Revolution and David Horne (was at Illamasqua) and if you simply Google him there are so many amazing looks he has done.
Spirit Doll Freedom palette is a beautiful palette which was said to be inspired by earthy natural and geological shades, to reveal your inner beauty and as a palette it is just stunning, not only does it have everything you need - ten eyeshadow Shades, three powder highlighters, two blushers, three lipglosses and four eyebrow powders but there is also a really handy mirror.
The Palette as you can see has some really amazing shades such as Euphoria, Zen, Crystal and Haze and I think there is definitely something for everything, whether you like your neutrals or the out there bright shades.
At the top of the palette are the four eyebrow shades in Taupe, Brunette, Bark and Ebony and for my, Taupe is almost the perfect shade and ebony works well as an eyeliner if you use a brush! All of the shades are easy to apply and are buildable depending on how prefer to have your brows shaded.

The three lipglosses are surprisingly non-tacky which pleases me immensely and whilst they are not overly pigmented, they do work really well on their own or over a lipstick. I use Delight, which is the lightest shade as a base for my lipstick as it works well as a lip primer for me. Love is the kind of red shade I am comfortable wearing because it isn't a vibrant red and Love as a shade is an inbetween shade of the other two.

The three powder highlighters I absolutely love - Starlight, Light and Haze are all different coloured highlighters and I like each one of them. The stand out shade is Haze which takes on a shimmery rose gold shade which is really pigmented but for me, I adore starlight and it has been my most used with Light being used below my brow arch.

The final part of this palette comes from the ten eyeshadows and again there is something for everyone as I have said and some of the shades really stand out and are lovely shades and others are much more within my comfort zone of being neutral shades. Again they apply absolutely effortlessly, they blend really well and there is very little fall out.
