Just skincare at the moment.



Foundation applied.



Concealer applied which is Charlotte Tilbury.



I apply Anastasia Beverly Hills on my right side (left in the picture) and SHEGLAM on myleft side (right in the picture).



I applied Vanilla Bourbon from the SHEGLAM palette under my left eye to set the concealer using a Morphe brush and I applied Banana from the Anastasia Beverly Hills palette under my eye on my right using a similar Morphe brush to set the concealer.



On my left side I contoured my face using shade Noble Teint from the SHEGLAM palette with a Real Techniques brush and using another brush, exactly the same brush (yes I have a lot of brushes and duplicates of some) so on my right side I contoured my face using Fawn from the Anastasia Beverly Hills palette.



Highlighter time so on my left side I highlighted with the shade Queen of Ice from the SHEGLAM palette using a Morphe X Jaclyn Hill brush and on the right side I highlighted with the shade Sand from Anastasia Beverly Hills palette.



My skin looks amazing, I have to say that the Anastasia Beverly Hills side is a little better.



20:25: Both sides look the same, my skin is very dry.

Shades on the top is Anastasia Beverly Hills and bottom is SHEGLAM.


Date Tried: Saturday 1st June 2024


The shades are not that far off, I found the SHEGLAM a little chalky and the third shade isn't as shimmery as the Anastasia Beverly Hills and the Anastasia Beverly Hills is just a subtle shimmer, if you like that highlighter that blinds people then these palettes are not for you. I do prefer the Anastasia Beverly Hills palette over the SHEGLAM palette.


Is it a dupe: No
