Beauty BakerieBrownie Bar Mini Makeup Palatte, Contour, Bronzer, and Highlighter Makeup, Travel Size

This comes bubble wrapped nicely. It has an outer cardboard sleeve. The back of both the cardboard sleeve and the palette have product information on it. Ingredients are included. It is made in China. Beauty Bakerie is cruelty free (approved by PETA). This is vegan and vegan and gluten free.Like all Beauty Bakerie products, the packaging is cute. It is a little palette. There’s a window in the front where you can see the shades. It has magnetic closure. There is no mirror or shade names.It claims to be a “universal shades of contour, bronzer, and highlighter.” I am fair skinned, so I won’t be able to use the highlighter as a highlighter. If I use a very light hand I might be able to get away with it. I could mix it with a blush to make a blush shimmery. I couldn’t use the middle shade as a bronzer. It is far too orange for me. I would use it as a blush. The darkest shade works as a bronzer if I am very light handed.I did finger swatches on my clean forearm (no lotion, primer, etc.). I swiped the highlighter shade onto my arm and then what was left on my finger I blended next to it to show what just a little looks like.The powders are soft, smooth, and have good pigment. If I use a light hand, I can get away using the brown as a bronzer or contour. I like it isn’t overly warm toned. The middle shade works as a warm, orange kind of blush for me. The highlighter is soft, smooth, and almost creamy feeling. It is too dark for me. But, like I said, I can use a VERY light hand and get away using it. I can also mix a tiny bit of it with blush to use as a blush topper. I like using it as an eyeshadow because it has such a wet, metallic look to it.Overall, I wouldn’t call these “universal shades of contour, bronzer, and highlighter.” I’m fair skinned and can make it work, but I wouldn’t really recommend this for any one who is fair skinned unless you like to have a more orange colored bronzer or blush and don’t mind a gold highlighter or to use it as an eyeshadow. It’s nice quality and a nice formula for the powders and highlighter, but I just don’t think it’s universal. If you’re medium to dark, this would probably work better for you. But hopefully my swatches let you judge for yourself! For quality and performance, I give it 4 stars. I took a star off for them calling it universal when I don’t think it it.

This palette arrived exactly as shown and anticipated - no bad surprises. I was pleasantly surprised by the size of it! It's much larger than I might have expected, each color is the size of of a typical blush product. The container is also very durable and well made. The colors are highly pigmented but creamy enough that you can blend them with ease.The brownie color is great for contouring, shadow lining, and contouring your eye crease. The rust color makes a great blush for me! I have fair freckled skin with neutral undertones and warm reds are really my blush jam!The gold shade is the least versatile shade for me, but that's my skin being the issue not the product. The gold has a good bit of shimmer to it (shimmer, not glitter) and my skin is too light in the fall and winter months to "hold" this as a highlighter or shadow and still look natural. Natural is what I go for! That will not be a problem for most of you reading this I don't think; in the winter I am the lightest or 2nd lightest foundation shade out there. I am however, really looking forward to using it this summer when I have more of a tan and bump up to the 3rd for 4th lightest shade on the charts.Overall this is a great product and I would absolutely recommend it! It's also a great value at this price point - the quality is comparable to premium department store compacts I've purchased in the past for $40+. I look forward to checking out other products from this company as they seem to me to be offering a premium product at an affordable price!

I am fair skinned, so the shades all looked like they would work well on my skin tone.I did finger swatches on my clean forearm (no lotion, primer, etc.).The powders are soft, smooth, and have good pigment. The bronzer isn’t too warm where it’s orange, which I love. I hate when bronzers are more orange than bronze! This one gives warmth to the skin without being too warm. It has good pigment, but isn’t overly pigmented where it’s way too much on my fair skin. I’m able to use a light hand and have it work for me. The blush is a beautiful pink shade. It looks great on my fair skin! The highlighter is soft, smooth, and almost creamy feeling. It has a nice sheen to it. It isn’t glittery at all, which I love! You can use a little to have just a light, soft glow, or you can build it up to get more of a beaming highlight.Overall, like this palette. I’m fair skinned and they all work really well for me. It’s nice quality and a nice formula for the powders and highlighter. I definitely recommend!
