Juvia's Place Nubian Eyeshadow Palette - REVIEW
11/24/2018
Još otkako sam prvi put
saznala za Juvia's Place palete imala sam ogromnu želju isprobati ih pogotovo
nakon čitanja brda pozitivnih recenzija/komentara. Prolazili su tako mjeseci i
mjeseci, a ja nikako da naručim paletu sve dok Juvia's Place na Instagramu nije
objavila da imaju 40% popusta na sve svoje proizvode. Naravno da sam znala da
ću odmah napraviti narudžbu samo sam se dvoumila koju paletu odabrati (jer ako
niste bili na njihovoj stranici ne znate da je tamo jedna paleta ljepša od
druge i izbor je ful težak). Na kraju je izbor pao na, da tako kažem,
back-to-basics paletu, a radi se o njihovom prvijencu- Nubian paleti. Nakon podužeg isprobavanja i igranja s njom mislim
da je pravo vrijeme da vam natipkam recenziju.
Ever since I first
found out about Juvia's Place palettes my huge wish was to try them out especially
after reading so many positive things about them. Months and months passed by
and I never got around ordering until one day Juvia's Place posted a code on Instagram
for 40% off all of their products. Immediately I knew I am going to place an
order but wasn't sure what to choose (because if you haven't been on their
website you probably don't know that the decision is extremely hard). At the
end I decided to go back-to-basics with their first ever- Nubian palette. After trying it for quite some time now it's just
about right to share my thoughts on it with you in this review.
Osnovno
o proizvodu:
- Cijena: $20 (oko 130 kn)
- Količina: 18 grama, 1,5 g po sjenilu
- Gdje kupiti: Juvia's Place službena web stranica
Riječ brenda: ,,The Nubian Palette by Juvia's was inspired
by an African Empire in old Egypt headed by the beauty icon Nefertiti. Famously
endowed with strength and spirituality. This palette consists of 12 shades
beautifully coordinated to be reflective on Golds, Coppers, Browns and Nudes as
seen in an Egyptian Empire˝
Ambalaža
Nubian paleta dolazi u
kartonskoj ambalaži iste zelene boje i motiva kao i na samoj paleti. Na
poleđini ambalaže nalazi se popis sastojaka, ''riječ brenda'' i rok valjanosti
(12 mjeseci nakon otvaranja). Jedina stvar koja nije navedena (a po meni bi
itekako trebala biti) jest gramaža palete odnosno količina proizvoda koji se u
njoj nalazi. Malo sam istražila i saznala kako sadrži 18 grama proizvoda što je 1,5 g po sjenilu. Prilično dobra količina
uzmemo li u obzir omjer cijene i kvalitete. Sama paleta ima zatvaranje na
magnet, a sjenila su prekrivena zaštitnom folijom za dodatnu sigurnost. Mali
minus također moram dati zbog toga što nijanse nisu imenovane pa to može biti
nezgodno pogotovo osobama koje se bave snimanjem tutoriala jer realno puno je
lakše ljudima reći naziv nijanse koji ste koristili nego govoriti ''drugo
sjenilo u trećem redu...''. Vidim da to nije slučaj kod svih ostalih paleta
koje su izbacili nakon ove pa kako je Nubian njihova prva paleta ikad to možda
možemo pripisati i nekakvoj početničkoj grešci.
Sastoji se od ukupno 12 sjenila od kojih je 4 mat te 8 shimmerastih nijansi.
Nijanse
Obzirom da se radi o
proizvodu koji je, kako brend kaže, inspiriran drevnim Egiptom prevladavaju
tople, zlatne, brončane, bakrene i smeđe nijanse. Sve nijanse su baš po mom
ukusu jer se jako lako kombiniraju kako za dnevni tako i za večernji look. Čak
se i neka sjenila koja se ne čine toliko nosiva (crvenkaste nijasne) jako
lijepo uklapaju u dnevni makeup. Paletu koristim već nekoliko mjeseci i mogu
reći da sam do sada koristila apsolutno sva sjenila iz nje. Svako sjenilo mi je
predivno (vidjet ćete kasnije i na swatchevima koliko su divna) no definitivno najposebnija nijansa je prva nijansa u
drugome redu. Radi se o predivnom roskastom sjenilu toplog podtona koje ima
jako zanimljivi zlatni odsjaj. Stvarno jedna posebna nijansa sa kojom se do
sada nisam imala prilike sresti.
Tekstura
i Pigmentacija
Na području teksture i
pigmentiranosti paleta mi je pri samom vrhu svega što sam do sada isprobala.
Sjenila su predivna, putrasta, lako se nanose, nadograđuju, predivno
blendaju... Nisu praškasta pa nema
muka po trušenju. Stvarno im po tom pitanju nisam uspjela pronaći niti jednu
jedinu zamjerku, doista jako dobro odrađen posao. Pigmentacija je također za
svaku pohvalu i stvarno mogu reći da što se pigmentacije tiče niti jedno
sjenilo nije zakazalo što se može vidjeti i po swatchevima, ali i tjekom
svakodnevnog korištenja.
Trajnost
Trajnost je pored
teksture i pigmentacije svakako najvažnija karakteristika bilo kojeg sjenila, a
ovdje me oduševila. Inače imam masne kapke i u slučaju kada bi samo malo
korektora kao bazu ova sjenila su bila na mjestu dobrih 10 sati i to bez ikakvog nakupljanja u pregibima što mi je
posebice važno s obzirom da imam malkice spuštene kapke. Vjerujem da znate
koliki je problem izdržljivost makeupa na masnim kapcima tako da na ovom
područu od mene ima jedan veliki plus.
Da zaključim, Nubian
paletu preporučila bi apsolutno svakome, a posebno osobama poput mene koje
obožavaju ovakve zemljane, brončane i zlatne tonove jer ćete se zaljubiti u
paletu (znam da ja jesam). Strašno mi je drago što sam ju kupila, a znam da
nije niti zadnja koju naručujem. Sjenilima nisam uspjela pronaći niti jednu jedinu
zamjerku. Otkad sam je kupila svaki put kada bi nosila look sa sjenilom na
očima bila je to uglavnom Nubianka. Meni je to dokaz dobro uloženog novca u
kvalitetan proizvod. Omjer cijene, kvalitete i količine je po meni odličan, a
ako je uspijete uhvatiti na nekom od sniženja još i bolji. Svi njihovi proizvodi su veganski i cruelty free.

Brand words: ,,The Nubian Palette by Juvia's was inspired

Packaging
Palette is packaged in green
box same color and with the same motiv as on the palette itself. On the back
you can find list of ingredients, brands description and expiring date (12
months since opening). The only thing missing on the box (which should've
definitely been stated) is how much product (in grams or ounces) do you
actually get within the palette. I did a little bit of a research and found out
that it contains 18 grams/0.63 ounces
of product which is 0.053 ounces per
eyeshadow. Pretty good amount considering the price-quality ratio. Palette
has magnetic closure and comes with transparent plastic on eyeshadows for extra
protection. I have to give it a little minus cause none of the eyeshadows are
named which might be a little impractical if you are someone who films/does
tutorials etc. since it's always easier to mention name of shade you used than
having to say ''second shadow in the third row...'' for example. As I've seen
this is not the case with any of the palettes which were released after this
one and since Nubian is really their first palette ever we can consider this to
be nothing more than beginners mistake.
Palette contains 12 eyeshadows, 4 matt and 8 shimmer shades.
Shades
Since the product is
inspired by old Egypt color scheme is very warm, gold, bronzy and coppery. All
of the shades are right up my alley because you can so easily make them work in
both daytime and nighttime looks. Combinations are endless. Even some of the
shadows that don't seem very wearable (red/copper shades) on day to day basis
are very much the opposite. I've been using Nubian for the past few months now
and can honestly say that I used absolutely every single eyeshadow. All shades
are divine to me but the one which stood out the most is first shade in second
row. It's a beautiful rosy shade with a very interesting gold shift to it.
Definitely the most special shade
within the palette, something I never seen before.
Texture
& Pigmentation
When it comes to
texture and pigmentation this palette is on absolute top in comparison to everything else I've tried so far. Eyeshadows are beautiful, buttery, easy to
apply, easy to layer and blend very nicely as well. They are also not powdery so the amount of fallout is minimal. In
this category I can't seem to find anything negative to say about Nubian
palette, it's just the way it is supposed to be. A job well done! Pigmentation
is great, not only when it comes to darker eyeshadows but every single one in
the palette is beautifully pigmented. You will be able to see it on swatches but
also by using it in real life.
Logevity
Longevity is next to
texture and pigmentation definitely one of the most important characteristics
speaking of eyeshadows in general but in this case I was pleasantly surprised
with how long lasting they actually are. I have oily eyelids and on days when I
used only a little bit of concealer as a base this eyeshadows would last on my
eyelids for solid 10 hours. All that without any creasing. I believe you
all know what kind of a struggle longevity is on oily eyelids so in this
category Nubian gets another big plus from me
To sum up, I would recommend
Nubian palette to absolutely everyone especially if you are like me and love
all the gold, earthy and bronze shades because you are going to fall in love
with it (I know I did). I honestly couldn't be more glad that i've decided to
purchase it and know for sure it is not going to be the only Juvia's palette in
my collection. There is simply no negative side to this eyeshadows in my
opinion. Ever since it arrived whenever I would wear a makeup look that
included eyeshadow it would almost always be this palette. That is a sign of a
money well invested in a quality product. Price-amount-quality ratio is
absolutely amazing but if you manage to catch it on sale it's even better. All of Juvia's Place products are vegan and
cruelty free.

This palette has amazing pigmentation and colours, not really my colours but I still believe it's worth a buy in comparison to many expensive but less pigmented palettes :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiI agree, it's a great product! :)
IzbrišiPredivna paleta, škicnula sam jednom njihovu stranicu, ali mi se čini da me odbila cijena poštarine, čini mi se oko 20$!
OdgovoriIzbrišiDa, za samo jednu paletu poštarina je oko 20$ no ako uzmeš 2 ili više onda pada na 10$ što je ok s obzirom da su prije par dana sve palete bile snižene 45% pa kad se sve zbroji i oduzme isplati se svakako :) Uskoro se otvara i UK stranica Juvia's Place-a pa nećemo morati brinuti o carini/porezu prilikom naručivanja ako svote budu veće
IzbrišiMalo je reć da su boje prekrasne! Juvias mjerkam i ja ali nikako još ni jednu nisam naručila
OdgovoriIzbrišiPreporučam iskreno, nećeš se razočarati :)
IzbrišiThat's a beautiful palette! I've never heard about it before but I'm curious to try it out!
OdgovoriIzbrišiIt's truly amazing! :)
IzbrišiRazmijenimo mišljenja, natipkaj mi komentar! 😊
