Description: Yes, we've done it again! This breathtaking, new version of the top-selling 120 Color Palette has a tantalizing twist: it's all shimmer shadows! Delightful, surprising hues, such as glittery pinks, sparkly lavenders, and vibrant, desert oranges swirl amid glimmery greens, sun-flecked yellows, swimming pool blues, and metallic mauves. As always, the brilliant shimmer-shades in this double- tray palette (in the traditional sleek, black case) are silky-soft, sumptuous, and long-lasting.
Today I got my package and I could not wait to open it!! This is my first BH Cosmetics 120 Palette to own! EVER! I have been wanting to purchase a palette from them for awhile and glad I did since last week, they had reached 500K Likes on Facebook so they had 50% off of select palette and the one that I ordered was one of them! I'm glad I took advantage of it since that offer is something that you cannot pass up.
The palette is fragile and glad that the UPS took extra care of my package to make sure that it arrives undamaged.
The inside of the package with lots of paper.
Wrapped with some card board wrap (or something like that) and more paper.
The top layer of the palette
The bottom layer of the palette
Both layers of the palette! Gorgeous colors!
The palette's colors are so vibrant and gorgeous! Some of the eyeshadows are super pigmented, some of them are decently pigmented and some of them are sheer and fairly pigmented but can be packed on to build the color so it can appear more pigmented. There are some colors that I liked that I will use this palette to do some summer looks soon. Overall, this palette is amazing and I'm a big fan of shimmery eyeshadows. For those that love shimmer, do get this palette! You will not be disappionted. Here are swatches below! All 120 eyeshadows altogether!
Hope you enjoyed this post! Do you own this palette? Which BH Cosmetic Palette is your favorite/recently purchased?
Purchase the 120 Color Eyeshadow Palette 4th Edition now!

MAC Angel Lipglass Review/Swatch
I recieved Angel l/g in the mail a few days ago since I wanted to try it out. This lipglass describes as a light warm pink. The pigmentation is opaque and it does require a light application for darker skintones.As for fair and medium skintones, this would suit you well. When I tried it on straight from the tube, it looked awful on me but when I used it lightly, it turned out okay. Also mixing it with Hush Hush Tendertone made it look gorgeous! I don't own the lipstick version of it but I have thought about getting it one day but time will tell if I ever get around to purchase it. Here are pics and a swatch of it below:
Hope you enjoyed this post. Sorry that this review is short. Will make them longer next time for my upcoming haul posts. Do you own this lipglass?

Since Fashion Sets launched online before my trip to Cali, I placed an order on Pink Nouveau and Impassioned liplgasses and placed an order on Girl About Town after that. While I was in Cali, I placed an order on Morange l/g. I was going to wait to do this post tomorrow since I get Angel l/g on that day but decided to do this post anyway to get it out of the way. These lipglasses are so pretty! I don't own the lipstick version of Pink Nouveau, Girl About Town and Morange but I own the lipstick version of Impassioned. Here are my thoughts on the lipsglasses:
Pink Nouveau: Described as a mid-tone cool pink and it's really pretty! I want the lipstick version of it and will B2M for it soon. I tried it and it kind of settles in the lip lines and love that it's opaque.
Girl About Town: Pretty shade!! Described as a bright blue fuchsia. I had to get this since I really want the lipstick version of it soon. This one has slighty shimmers in it and when applied, it is pretty! This one did not settle in the lip lines at all. I will B2M for the lipstick version soon!
Impassioned: Gorgeous shade! Described as a bright warm pink. Since being almost identical to the lipstick version, I applied both of them on the lips and it looked amazing. This one is my favorite lipglass ever since I don't own any shades that are like this.
Morange: Described as a bright cream orange. This is the brighest orange that I've ever own in my life! I do like the color in the tube but when I applied it on my lips, it looked terrible! I will have to try it with a lipstick that will make Morange work for my skintone. This one did settle in the lip lines when worn alone. I will try again with this shade soon! I do plan to B2M for the lipstick version but I'm unsure as of now.
Here are swatches below:
L-R: Pink Nouveau, Girl About Town, Impassioned, Morange
Hope you enjoyed this post! I really hope that MAC will restock Razzledazzler, Rebel and Saint Germain lipglasses soon since recently they are sold out of Angel lipglass, Spice lipstick and lipglass. Do you own any of these shades?
