Pinay Beauty and Style: Makeup World Ultimate Palette Review, Swatches, and Price

I got this palette when I went to the launch of the Makeup World brand a few months ago. I was intrigued by the marketing, saying it is an all in one makeup kit and they call it the Makeup World Ultimate Palette.

Makeup World Ultimate Palette

The Makeup World Ultimate Palette contains 4 smaller lip palettes with 4 lip color each. They are not waxy or balm-like as what is usually included in palettes that are sold like this. Some of the colors seem like they will be matte on the pan but all actually have a creamy finish.

I find the berry shades to be very Filipina skin friendly but they are a bit too dark for me.

The reds are all cool-toned ones so they can give the illusion of whiter teeth. Yay!

The nudes are honestly a bit too pale but I was able to make them work by mixing them in with the other colors. The right-most nude is my fave.

The pinks are a bit in your face but I find that they can be toned down when mixed with the nudes or amplified by mixing with the reds or the berries.

Makeup World Ultimate Palette Review for the LipSticks

Scent: nearly no scent
Color Pay-Off: 2 layers needed to achieve full opacity
Texture and finish: Smooth cream, creamy or satin finish
Longevity: 3-4 hours
User-friendliness: 4.5/5
Score: 4.5/5

Just like for the lippies, the Makeup World Ultimate Palette contains 4 smaller eyeshadow palettes sporting 4 shadows each. They do not have insane pigmentation but quite a few of the shimmery ones can hold their ground against highend shadows. Fallout are minimal. If there's anything lacking here for a starter palette it would be berry or purple shades as well as a true black and a deep brown.

The shimmery shadow in the palette above is a great highlighter. The rest are quite ho-hum or great if you've after very light natural looking shadows.

Same as the mini palette before this, I'm wondering though why they included khaki shades because they seldom flatter anyone. This would have a real winner if they went for warm earth tones like terracotta or browns.

The grays and whites are pretty decent but the black one is just a charcoal, not a real black. I would have preferred a deep neutral brown as well.

The above is my favorite because they show up nicely on my skintone.

I love eyeshadows so the rest of the shades are a bit of a disappointment for me. A makeup beginner would love them though.

Makeup World Ultimate Palette Review for the Eyeshadows

Score: 3.75/5

Makeup World Ultimate Palette Review for the Bronzer

Longevity: 3-4 hours

User-friendliness: 4/5
Score: 4/5

Makeup World Ultimate Palette Review for the Color Correctors

Color Pay-Off: 2 to 3 layers needed to achieve full opacity but then you don't go full coberage on color correctors naman
Texture and finish: thick cream easily blended
Longevity: 3-4 hours
User-friendliness: 3.5/5 because beginners may find it tricky to use
Score: 4/5

Not super opaque but this palette is meant to be used as travel makeup so good enough in my opinion.

Makeup World Ultimate Palette Review for the Concealers

Scent: nearly no scent which is great!
Color Pay-Off: 2 to 3 layers needed to achieve full opacity and quite waxy
Texture and finish: ratio of pigment to oil is low so not a fan of this
Longevity: 3-4 hours
User-friendliness: 3.5/5

The colors are too light too so pano naman yung majority of pinays.

Makeup World Ultimate Palette Review for the Blushes

Scent: nearly no scent

Texture and finish: blendable powders
Longevity: 3-4 hours
User-friendliness: 4.5/5

They swatch so good, right?

Here are swatches of the lippies! These are very light swatches so overall I think that the palette is great and worth the price. This retails for 1600-2400 depending on where you buy. MY Overall verdict is 4.25/5 not bad!
