Hi Darlings, so today I thought I could do a part two and bring you 5 MORE Beauty Revolutions that sparked in my mind in the last couple of weeks.
It makes me overly happy that you enjoyed the first part of this post, I got such a positive response, you can read it here in case you missed it: Beauty Revolutions: 5 Things That Changed The Beauty World.
Again if you haven’t read the first part I explain it a lot better there but essentially we are talking about people, brands or product that in a way or another started a trend that changed the way we do our make up.
URBAN DECAY AND THE NAKED PALETTE
This palette is about to be discontinued which makes me so SAD! It was the very first palette I’ve owned and I still have it. Urban Decay changed the beauty world with this palette, I mean before we didn’t even know what a palette was.
This palette is so beautiful and easy to use, I think every single person that loves make up (even those who don’t) had some sort of interaction with it at least once in their life.
Now we have neutral palettes EVERYWHERE but this is the OG, the first love, we will never forget it.
URBAN DECAY AND THE PRIMER POTION
Another Urban Decay hit because when you are revolutionary you just are.
I have the oiliest eyelids and I remember life before the Primer Potion when my eyeshadow creased after one hour, I remember when I saw it for the first time on YouTube in the hands of an American girl, I wanted it so badly and I definitely remember when it arrived in Italy and I saw it for the first time. I was so excited!
The primer potion helped so many people out, including myself and it definitely changed the way we do our make up.
SIGMA BRUSHES
I never had them but I remember the first time I saw someone, that wasn’t a professional make up artist, using a brush and it was from Sigma.
They made something that was only for professional available for everyone and common people skills improved so much. Common people could actually try and do their make up well.
No finger will ever be able to create a smokey eye and thanks to Sigma we all could be a bit more of a make up artist.
ANASTASIA BEVERLY HILLS AND THE MODERN RENAISSANCE
Do you remember the days where no one would wear red eyeshadow because it would have made you look sick?
Then Anastasia created this baby and now red shadows and more in general, warm tones are everywhere. It all started here. It might not have been the first one but I don’t recall red eyeshadows before this palette (correct me if I’m wrong).
KYLIE JENNER’S LIPS
I’m not actually talking about her lips but about the colour of them. Now don’t tell me you have never defined (or heard someone define) a dark nude lipstick a “Kylie Jenner shade”.
I remember when everyone went crazy to find out which shades she was using to make her sexy pout and when it came out that it was either MAC Soar or Whirl those shades went SOLD OUT in seconds.
She literally brought back those shades from the 90s and now everyone has some sort of “Kylie Jenner shade” in their collection.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THESE REVOLUTIONS? DO YOU AGREE WITH ME? DO YOU REMEMBER OTHER ONES THAT I HAVEN’T MENTION? CAN’T WAIT TO HEAR YOUR THOUGHTS!

Love,
I am so sad to hear about the first Naked palette being discontinued! I just bought Kylie’s lip kit for the first time and I have to say I do like it a lot!
I’m so sad about the naked palette too! Xx
These are definitely all things that are newer to me.. I have to admit I haven’t tried any of these things! It’s interesting how beauty products evolve over the years.
It’s so interesting to see how make up evolves! ?
I remember the wow when my oily lids first met the UD primer potion. Match made in heaven! Anna x
Ahahaha that’s how I felt too! xx
It’s always so hard when makeup gets discontinued! But, it’s fun to try new products!
Totally! xx
Another great post! ?
Aww thank you Erica ?
Totally agree! Began mourning once I heard that the Naked Palette is being discontinued. I have one that is my go to for everything, especially when I am traveling. I can use some of the light shadows for highlighting my cheek bones. Great post!
Thank you so much for reading, I was so sad about the naked palette, I’ve used it everyday in high school ???
The Modern Rennaissance palette is goooorgeous! I see why it was such a hit! The colours are lovely! Thanks for this post! ?
Thank you for reading darling xx
I’d be lying if I said I don’t like Kylie Jenner’s lips!! I actually want to get my lips filled. I don’t know anything much about makeup, I usually just use BB cream and concealer! 😀
That’s a good point to start! ??
While I am new to the make up world, this sounds cool!
Glad you discovered something new ?
What an interesting topic!
I agree that UD Naked really changed the beauty world – I think the whole concept of eye shadow palettes weren’t as popular until it came out.
Same with UD Primer Potion. I remember how people would try to scrape out as much product out of the old wand tube before they repackaged it in a squeeze tube. 😛
One that I remember – and this is going way back – was Revlon’s Streetwear collection of crazy colour nail polishes like blue and green. Now it’s so commonplace to see “weird” nail polish colours by almost every mainstream brand.
Omg I remember when Chanel launched that Tiffany shade and everyone wanted it! I haven’t thought about the revolution Revlon started, but I definitely remember trying to scrape the bottle of the primer potion ahha. Thank you for reading xx
Kylie has really changed the beauty standards as more people has begun to accept that you can be beautiful with big plump lips too. Still remembered the time when I was in high school and being so self-conscious about my big lips.
Totally agree and now everyone wants big lips ? she changed the game ?
I totally agree I’m so sad the naked pallete is being discontinued!! I currently have the naked 2 pallete and was considering getting the first naked pallete so I’ll have to grab it quick before it’s gone xx
You are going to love it, I definitely prefer it to the naked 2 ?
