Review || BH Cosmetics 28 Colour Ultimate Lips Lipstick Palette

Hello lovelies,
To kickstart the re-launch of my blog I am writing a little review for you, I bought this palette through the BH Cosmetics website after watching Shaaanxo's swatch and review video, and it absolutely did not disappoint.

Cost and Delivery:
From the outset BH Cosmetics as a company impressed me, they are affordable even with international shipping, I spent a total of £13.11 for the palette and the delivery charges. It arrived quickly and is well worth the money as it works out at just 0.47p per lipstick, unbelievable value!

The Lipsticks:
Now for what everyone has been waiting for, swatch and review time!


1. A pale nude with salmon/ coral undertones, it is highly pigmented, however as with some of the other lighter colours it can apply a little uneven so make sure you blend it in well.
2. A more mid-dark nude, with salmon and brown notes, again it is a very creamy shade, highly pigmented and applies more smoothly than the last.
3. A slightly paler, mid toned nude, it is more brown toned than the previous shades and has a creamy finish.
4. The lightest nude in the palette, in the pan it almost looks like a concealer, it applies more peach toned on the lips and despite the uneven application, once blended it suits pale skin tones.
5. Another more mid toned nude, which is a brown based pink, which is the typical creamy finish.
6. Your typical warm toned Kylie Jenner lip colour, it is a dark brown nude which is highly pigmented and also has a cream finished.
7. The darkest shade in the palette, it is a dark, burgundy red with brown undertones, unlike the typical purple based dark colours you tend to see more of nowadays, it is again a creamy finish and applies nicely on the lips along with the other colours.


8. A dark pink toned red, unlike the previous shades this is a glossier finish, it feels firmer in the pan and on the lips resembles a gloss stick, it has a nice sheen to it.
9. A lighter pink red, it is glossy and balmy and is beautiful with simple eye look.
10. A dark but bright red, it has a satin to matte finish and like the glossier colours is slightly firmer in the pan, though it is very highly pigmented and applies beautifully.
11. A lighter, bright orange based red, it has a cream finish with high pigmentation and a beautiful sheen to it.
12. This creamy, muted neon orange/coral is my personal favourite colour, it applies brilliantly and is a wonderful summer colour.
13. A bright mid pink, somewhat resembling a muted barbie pink, it has a cream finish and great pigmentation.
14. A beautiful orange based nude with a very fine gold/ copper shimmer running through it, it is not overly noticeable on the lips, it just gives a gorgeous shimmer and sheen when it catches the light, it is again highly pigmented and creamy.


15. A creamy orange based nude pink, which still has cool toned elements to it, there is a beautiful sheen to this colour and it looks gorgeous with a warm smokey eye.
16. This shade in some ways reminds me of MAC's Cremecup as it is a light pink nude although it does have a peachy hint to it, it applies slightly uneven at first but after blending in it looks beautiful, it is slightly firmer in the pan but it still has a cream finish.
17. A more cool toned mauve nude, it again is seriously creamy and pigmented, it looks gorgeous against a pale skin tone.
18. A glossy light berry shade, it is pink based but still has a blue tone to it and appears cool toned on the lips, it is again firmer in the pan than perhaps the creamier shades.
19. Your typical Kylie Jenner brown nude in a cool tone as opposed to the warm tones you would normally find, it is a gorgeous satin finish brown-mauve.
20. A more purple based mid-dark nude, it is creamy, highly pigmented and a touch warmer than the other colours on this row, so far.
21. Another glossy colour, it is a slightly warmer dark brown/ pink nude but it is still more of a cool tone, similarly to the other glossy colours it is slightly firmer in the pan and a comfortable balmy texture on the lips.


22. Another glossy finish, it is a fuchsia pink with a purple/blue fine shimmer running through it, in certain lights it can have a more purple tone to it, again it is a little firmer in the pan but it is very highly pigmented.
23. A creamy 'true pink' shade it is a red based barbie pink, along with many of the other darker colours, barely touch creates a strong pigment on the lips.
24. This shade, on the other hand, is a very blue based barbie pink, which can look slightly purple, it is a cream finish with an incredible neon look to it.
25. Another one of my favourites, it is a bright, neon blue-based purple, another cream finish and a wonderful pop of colour for the spring/ summer months.
26. A paler, more wearable pink, it would work wonderfully as an alternative to nude in the spring as it is a more muted bright colour, with a gorgeous cream finish.
27. The penultimate shade is a darker, muted hot pink, with a slight brown/nude tint to it, it is a cream finish with wonderful pigmentation.
28. This shade was the most disappointing in the palette, it is too hard in the pan and not creamy at all, the glitter is too chunky and it has a rough feel on the lips, however it is not enough to turn away from such a wonderful palette.

Close up of the last shade.

General overview; the packaging claims the lipsticks are 'highly pigmented'; which is clearly true, you can tell from the freckle on my arm which is at times barely visible, that there is 'a shade for every occasion'; I would also agree with this, and that the shades can be 'worn sheer and natural or layered for a bold and dramatic look'; this is definitely true of some of the deeper shades and even the nudes.
