Anastasia Beverly Hills (ABH) Subculture Palette Review + Swatches

*oh my lord isn't it beautiful*

I know, its only just arrived, so I cannot do a full intense review, but I find when it comes to new palette swatches is what everyone realistically wants, so here is the swatches and first impressions for each shade! I hope enjoy - and I hope you have found it helpful if you are looking to purchase it :)

Cube. Every palette has a dud, and this is that for me, I mean I can't even see it on my skin tone. It does have a pink shimmer, but its just MEH. Not interesting.

Dawn. The perfect transition shade. I love this shade for blending out a warm eye look, and to use as a base. I used this today and first impressions are fantastic.

Destiny. I also used this one today, and it is the perfect Khaki green! I have been looking for a good khaki that isn't patchy, and this on is stunning - even better than the J* one!

Adorn. This is a foiled type shade, stunning swatched and applied wet, but difficult to just apply using the brush. Reminds me of MUG Grandstand I think it is :)

All Star. Stunning burgundy shade. Perfection, warm toned and stunning. I love how this applies. I cannot wait to use this one.

Mercury. The perfect Grey tone for eyes, its on the fence between warm and cool, definitely not either, and works with the warmer shades and the cooler ones, I can see me using this shade a lot.

Axis. This shade of blue is so hard to get right. and I am shook at how pigmented this is. Truly insane amounts of pigment. I cannot wait to be brave enough to use this!

Roxy. This is the perfect on the fence shade between pink and orange, beautifully pigmented. I used this one today - as I was most curious about this one (see below) and I was impressed, it blends beautifully.

Electric. This is another shade I just won't use. I just don't like the look of it, but never know. But I just don't love the shimmers.

Fudge. warm brown perfection, I love the look of the shade too, it is just needed to complete a palette like this, it is stunning with roxy.

New Wave. The perfect in-between orange and yellow, warm stunning perfection. This is the warmer yellow in the palette, it is stunning - and totally unique to my stash!

Untamed. This is the lighter teal, definitely cool toned. I cannot wait to try this out with edge. I love the idea of a yellow/blue eye.

Edge. The cooler yellow in the palette is just so unique and nice! I love how this one blends and how different this shade is.

Rowdy. I love how they went for a dark purple rather than a black, it just works so beautifully with the palette, I used this today and it worked beautifully in the outer V.

Overall, the mattes are BEAUTIFUL. Honestly cannot get over how smooth and pigmented they are, cannot believe how buttery they are, and how easy they are to work with. I now understand the hype around ABH shades, and this palette is so new and unique to the market at the moment, I don't own anything else like this, so it is 100% worth adding to your collection. The shimmers really aren't the best, but with only three in the palette it isn't the biggest issue.

To Address The Drama, there has been a video showing huge fallout with the shade roxy, and I can confirm that mine isn't like this. I don't know if the girl had a truly terrible batch, or if it was done to create views, I'm not sure, but if you are waiting to hear about this I can confirm that my roxy shade is perfect, and won't be crumbling away like the video was showing - no idea what happened there.

If you love the palette I will be doing a follow up post later this month with a full review and looks I have created using the palette, as a different palette like this can be intimidating with the shade range.

Have you looked at purchasing this yet? Do you like how different it is? Do you think you would use it?

Edit: My Batch Code is P7E19
