- Swatches of the new ABH Mini Sugar and Spice Eyeshadow Palettes.
I've only briefly used these but here's my first impression review:
I'm not super familiar with the formula in the ABH mini palettes in general but I will say the mattes and shimmers in these are not the same as what's in my other ABH palettes like the Rose Metals and Nouveau palettes.
The mattes feel slightly drier in these but still highly pigmented and very finely milled. The deepest matte in the Sugar palette is quite different and is MUCH drier than the rest. It didn't swatch too well but performed fine on the eye. There are also several mattes with either super fine sparkle or larger, nearly glitter-sized specks. Those with smaller shimmer were nice, not too much issue with them and I enjoyed the variety these add to the finishes. But I really didn't like the ones with larger sparkles as they reminded me of the ones from older ColourPop palettes. Too much sparkle fallout and not much of it stuck to the lid to be worth the hassle of cleaning it up. There is one shade in the Spice palette, the center one in the top row, that feels like a cream-powder hybrid. When swatching it, it went on the skin pretty sheer and I got a bit of hard pan on the surface. It applied far better to the eye with brushes though and the hard pan quickly broke apart at the touch of my brush.
The shimmers in these are more different than the mattes in comparison to my larger ABH palettes. The ones in the larger palettes are much more buttery-feeling and the sparkles are not as big. Most of the shimmers are the sparkly type with larger, chunkier particles. These pick up easily and adhere well to the lid and give off a good amount of shine. For some I found it helpful to dampen my brush with setting spray just to help the larger sparkles adhere better over the mattes and keep fallout to a minimum. In general there was more fallout from these than I would have liked. Many brands are doing so well with updating their formulas lately to minimize sparkle fallout but these felt like they were lagging behind a bit in that area. There are a couple of more satin-type shimmer with smaller shimmer particles in them. These were nice, not much issue with them. Good color payoff, easy to pick up and apply, they adhered well and were easy to build up.
I ordered these directly from ABH's website and paid for expedited shipping. They came in a bubble mailer that was a bit too large for what was inside. The blue shade in my Sugar palette arrived broken but I was able to press it back together. In general, I find paying extra for shipping (from any retailer) is usually a waste of money and doesn't tend to result in a better/faster experience.
These each go for $29 and are available on Sephora, Ulta, and of course ABH's website.

I love your video format - it's concise and elegant
I'm new to your channel and have never seen editing like this where you show the build up of the swatches in this way - ingenious for time saving for the viewer whilst still showing what you needed to do to get to that pay off (and the stages in between for anyone who doesn't want full blown pigment). Shame about the hard pan on that 1 shade in the spice palette, but in all your looks they appear to apply beautifully!! I was pleasantly surprised by the subtle duochrome goodness in some of those toppers as well 😍❤️
Amazing swatches and looks! Thank you
Like the new swatching build-up effect! And the music - as always - en pointe 💓
Swatch videos give appeal to me so much. Your swatches are by far the best I have seen. ❤
The editing where the swatches build up is brilliant, so skilful!
I really like the way you edit the footage of the swatches, so we can see the building up of the swatches in a cool way 👍
Thanks for the great swatches. I like this realistic type with that building up swatches and also some looks. Really helpful. With other videos I was short before buying the spice palette too but now I know it would definitely be to warm on me. Thanks for saving my money 😘.
Love your presentation of swatches and makeup 😍😍 I can clearly see that Spice is to warm and not for me... but Sugar is the one I wanna buy 😊
Love this type of video format ❤😊
