A sims palette??? WithOUT the characteristic bright green that makes up the diamond? Without the blues that literally are used to spell the name of the game? I didn’t realize I would be this personally offended.
That Sims palette is so boring. It feels like they took a random, generic palette and slapped a Sims logo on it. Generic brand collabs are officially a pet peeve of mine.
For a game series as goofy and colorful as The Sims that palette seems rather… Bland. Sometimes I don’t get their color choices for these collab palettes. What are the colors supposed to be… The mosiac when your sim is nude?
I have a theory that the palette shown for the MACx sims collab is the wrong palette. Mainly because the top picture shows the whole exterior is blue, but the one below it shows the bottom being black. As well, literally none of the color names or the colors themselves have anything to do with the sims. I think someone in their marketing department messed up. Again just a theory though, regardless, it looks boring and I won’t be buying it.
Just buy a random palette and slap a sticker on it. Boom, Sims palette.
I’m excited for the physicians formula foundation and the bh cosmetics palette, though. Not specifically for this month but for the potential of the other birthstones.

Why is it always indie brands, artist brands, and premium luxury that are passed on this sub though? It seems like the only makeup people talk about costs less than $5.00 and is owned by L’Oréal Corp. it’s not a big deal to do beauty on a budget, but it’s weird that that’s mostly what Reddit makeup subs talk about.
Meanwhile Pat McGrath is over here killin it to royal damehood status!
I just googled the BH January Garnet palette and as a January baby I am so disappointed in the colour choice and the packaging itself. Should have more earthy tones in the shades but that’s my opinion.

🛍 New Releases … Purchase or Pass? 🧹
▪️MAC ‘The Sims’ Eyeshadow Palette – $32
❌ PASS
☕ To me, this doesn’t even look like the Sims. It looks really pale, and really boring.
▪️The Ordinary Concealer – $6
✅ PURCHASE
☕ I love trying new concealer! Not crazy about it being a squeeze tube, though.
▪️Physician’s Formula Butter Foundation – $13
✅ PURCHASE
☕ I have had good luck with everything Physician’s Formula, so this is exciting!
▪️BH Cosmetics ‘January Garnet’ Palette – $9
❌ PASS
☕ Not my birthstone, and the entire palette looks cheap & unimpressive.
▪️E.L.F. Mint Collection – $4 – $8
✅ PURCHASE
☕ I will buy a few pieces to add to my collection, this looks neat & exciting!
▪️Dior Eyeshadow Trios – $50
❌ PASS
☕ I saw reviews of these, & they are HORRIBLE quality which is not great for the price.
▪️Wet n Wild Tinted Hydrator – $5
✅ PURCHASE
☕ A big fan of Wet n Wild’s foundation, I’m excited to see how a lighter coverage product would work.
▪️Wet n Wild New Collection – $4 – $6

☕ I don’t know if these are refornulations or just repackaged, but I don’t have any Wet n Wild eyeshadow palettes yet.
▪️Suva Beauty Red Hydraliner – $26 (kit)

☕ Apparently, these crack. I’m much more into trying the Sheen liners. Small company, huge selection of colors!
That Sims palette is just… lazy.

Idk if it’s the wording layout or the font used or even a combination of both, but I thought “Big Poppa” was “Big Poopa” for a solid 10 seconds.
That’s too bad the dior shadows are poor quality. I love the colors of the top one.
Love this !! Thanks for your opinion/review. Some of these items weren’t even on my radar until now!
So how many shades for the PF? IM DYING TO KNOW THEYVE UPPED FROM THIER 5 SHADES!
The Mac makeup in the Sims is pretty editorial. I’m disappointed they didn’t carry that into their irl palette.
As a longtime Sims fan.. no. Next they’re going to give us an Animal Crossing palette with all nudes.
Definitely thought the mascara was named “big poop”
Alright, super hella excited for this Physician’s Formula foundation.
This is the most boring palette I have ever seen
the MAC one is soooooo disappointing!! i would have been ready with my wallet, but it’s so boring.
