    Makeup Revolution Ultra Eye Contour Light and Shade Palette Review

    July 14, 2017 / 0 Comments

    Happy Friday, loves!  Congrats on making it to the weekend  Today, I'm excited to be reviewing the Makeup Revolution Ultra Eye Contour Light & Shade Palette.  First off, let's address the obvious.  This looks identical to the Kat Von D Shade + Light Eye Contour Palette   I previously owned the cult favorite and while I enjoyed the formula, the majority of the shades were too neutral/ cool-toned for my personal tastes.  I ended up only using about three warm shades.  With the $48 price tag, I didn't feel I was getting my money's worth out of the palette.  So when I saw this affordable Makeup Revolution dupe, I was…
