Catrice Orchid Dusk Eyeshadow Palette is It More Natasha Denona Love Palette or Huda Beauty Desert Dusk

Catrice Orchid Dusk Eyeshadow Palette enters the Spring 2020 stratosphere today and it’s a little bit Natasha Denona Love Palette, some Huda Beauty Desert Dusk, and a sprinkle of Huda Beauty Rose Gold.

I already own Desert Dusk and Rose Gold and I was kind of meh on Natasha’s new Love Palette because I feel like I have many of the shades in that palette already! I can see myself trying out the Catrice Orchid Dusk Eyeshadow Palette though to see how the formulas compare and if it might be a cheaper dupe of Natasha’s or Huda’s. At $21.99 you can snag this palette at 20% Off with code 769439 on Ulta’s website at the moment. It contains 18 wine, burgundy, cranberry, and dusky shades of pink eyeshadow inspired by the orchid. These are matte and metallic in finish and Catrice promises a highly pigmented formula. I dunno what it is but a lot of brands are embracing this shade range for Spring looks! Is it Valentine’s Day? Is it just the Spring shade of the season? I personally associate nude looks with Spring! Nude looks, golden peach blush, maybe a bronze-y eye for Spring break but shades like this not as much! But it sure does feel very Valentine-ish!

It’s not a terribly new assortment of shades but as I said I’d be curious to see how it compares to some higher-end palettes I already own. Catrice is a rather underrated brand with some awesome, affordable products. I guess that’s why I’m a bit curious about this palette. It’s not something I need as the colors are ones I have plenty of but it is something I’m quite curious about.

Catrice Orchid Dusk Eyeshadow Palette is available now at Ulta.

Do you think it would be a palette that interests you?

Are you curious to see how it measures up to some other brand that have a similar shade range?

    Remember that the Catrice matte singles were as good as it gets, including HE. Not sure about this. I’d love to swatch it, but hardly need it, despite having neither the ND nor the Huda. Hope it’s good; love to see Catrice succeed.

    I think you should get it and do a comparison of the similar colors in the high end palates you already own! That would be so fun to see/hear your thoughts on the formulas etc…..thank you for always finding the fun new things out there for us!

    I’m kinda intrigued by it. My experiences with Catrice have been good (their Prime & Fine powder is excellent and a great value), and I’m too frugal to spend in the Huda/Denona league. In all honesty, my initial reaction was “$21.99 for a Catrice palette?!!”� (same way I reacted when NYX palettes went up to $35)…but I do l like the colors.
