Hello humans! So
today I’m going to be reviewing the LORAC Unzipped Palette. I was really
excited to try this palette out because I’m a sucker for good neutral palettes.

Packaging:
I love LORAC, but I have to be honest, their packaging is not my
favourite. The palette is in the cardboard material that flops around. They do
provide a huge mirror (which is always much appreciated) but the mirror is not
sturdy and is hard to use when you’re putting the palette on a table to do your
makeup. But it does come with the coveted LORAC Behind The Scenes Eye Primer in
travel size.
Colours:
The palette includes
4 matte shades (Undercover, Unconditional, Unbribed and Unspoken) and the rest
are shimmering colours. The shimmering shades have a slight frosty finish which
I don’t mind.
The colours are
mainly cool undertoned shades, making it suitable for people with a cool
skintone. I have a warm undertoned skin and I was still able to create a
complementing neutral look with this palette. LORAC claims that this palette is
universally flattering, but I don’t think I agree with that as the shades are
from one family.
Formulation:
LORAC eyeshadows are
highlighly pigmented with minimal fall out. The darker colours (Unbribed and
Untamed) have more fall out than the others in my opinion.
It applies on very
smoothly and have a very velvety texture that is a dream to blend. I tried the
palette out without any primer and there was minimal creasing. They also last a
very long time as I wore it for 12 hours straight without any touch ups and it
was still there by the time I removed my makeup.
Pricing:
This palette retails
for USD $40 at the LORAC website and I bought it for IDR 765K. I think it is
worth the price for the quality of the shadows.
Pictorial:
1. Apply the LORAC
Behind The Scenes Primer all over the top and bottom lid.
2. Highlight the brow
bone and inner corner using Undercover
3. Define the crease
by blending Unconditional in a fluffy brush
4. Apply Unattainable
all over the mobile lid.
5. Amp up the outer V
by blending unspoken to the area connecting to the lower lash line.
6. Darken using
Untamed in the outer third of the lid and the center of the lower lash line.
7. Rim the waterline
using the Em Michelle Phan Waterliner in Black Knight
8. Apply Mascara, I’m
using the Benefit They’re Real Mascara
9. And you’re done!
Overall:
I love this palette.
The only thing that I don’t like is the packaging as it is not the easiest to
work with. My favourite shades are Undercover, Unattainable and Unspoken.
Definitely an investment worthy palette
Verdict:
9.5/10
