"I love The Culture Cosmetics' gorgeous pigmented 400 Years palette. It's my fave to date.

I just love the variety and versatility of this color palette. The colors are very pigmented and beautiful and show up nicely on my my skin tone. 💗💗

The 400 year pallet isn't just a pallet, it's a revolution celebrating black beauty, liberation, & triumph!"

"It's one of the best l've ever used, the colors are so pigmented! I usually need an eyeshadow base before the color but I literally just apply the color and it stands out beautifully!"
