Bh Cosmetics Galaxy Chic Palette Review & Swatches


Bh Cosmetics “Galaxy Chic” Baked Eyeshadow Palette

Now I’m a sucker for overpriced high end makeup products, but at only $12.00, this might be my favorite palette I’ve ever owned.

And not just because of the price, but because it’s AMAZING!

Not to mention the adorable space theme.

Before I start raving too much, let’s cover the basics.


Packaging: 9/10
Although this is just a typical cardboard palette, it’s sturdy as heck!
Another bonus is that it has a mirror, and the cover is flexible enough to fold over if you’re wanting to hold the palette with one hand.
The only thing I don’t like about it is the cover! It makes it look like a cheap $12.00 palette! It looks like something my little sister would use, but I’ll survive.



Eyeshadow Quality: 10/10
Who knew Bh Cosmetics had such fantastic baked eyeshadows??
They’re ultra pigmented when dry, so I can’t wait to see how they apply when wet.
Some people might find them a bit powdery, but I didn’t have a problem with that.


Price: 10/10
I would pay $50.00 for this palette, so at $12.00 it’s a steal!
Enough said.


Overall: 9.7/10
I can’t even tell you how much I love this palette! The color variation is fantastic, and there isn’t a single shade that doesn’t amaze me.
Also, the space names for each of the shadows are so much fun!
Literally the only con here is the front cover, but that’s something I’m willing to deal with.
