ABH Modern Renaissance Pallette

‘Renaissance’, from the French ‘naissance’ means birth. The Renaissance was

the rebirth of art in a time of stony-faced practicality and low spirits. The

Renaissance was about inspiration and exploration, and that energy is deftly

harnessed in Anastasia Beverly Hills’ Modern Renaissance eyeshadow palette.

The Modern Renaissance palette comes with fourteen 0.02-ounce shadows.

Compared to the beloved Urban Decay Naked palette, that’s less than half the

amount of product per shadow, but with the Modern Renaissance palette, you do get

two more shadows than the Naked palette for $12 less. You get ten matte shades,

and four stunning shimmer shades. It’s a warm-toned palette, featuring mostly

neutrals and a few berry shades, all with Renaissance themed names that really add

to the very classic vibe of palette. I wouldn’t say that these eyeshadows are the most

pigmented, but they are incredibly buttery, blendable, and can be built up to be very

opaque. The color selection is really reminiscent of richly vibrant Renaissance

paintings, and is surprisingly incredibly versatile. In the few weeks that I’ve had this

palette, I’ve been create such wildly different looks, whether it be a casual and

natural eye, a dramatic smoky eye, or a soft terracotta poolside look; the

possibilities are as endless as your imagination. My palette is looking so rough

because it has become my go-to. Honestly, the magic of this palette is how inspiring

it is. I’m not sure if it’s the elegant soft pink faux suede packaging, the shade names

that transport you to the sun-kissed beaches of the Italian coast, or the refined, but

not stuffy or expected color selection.

Now, I was planning of filling this review to the brim with Renaissance

themed puns, but my pun reserve was fresc-out, and honestly this palette can really

stand on it’s own without any extra sauce. This is an incredible palette for travel

thanks to its slim packaging. It comes with a duo-sided brush, and a large, decent

quality mirror. For only $42, this palette is a great deal, and is absolutely stunning

for creating both breezy and heartbreaking summer looks.
