Python
Huda Beauty Python Obsessions Eyeshadow PaletteHuda Beauty Python Obsessions Eyeshadow Palette ($29.00 for 0.45 oz.) is a new, limited edition palette with five matte eyeshadows and four shimmer shades in a more colorful composition. The quality was solid across the board with soft, fairly pigmented, and blendable mattes and shimmers that worked well with a dry brush (as well as a dampened brush or fingertip); the latter hasn’t always been the case with Huda Beauty’s shimmer formula, which has often been too thick/dense.
The shimmer formula will still be ideal for someone who tends to use their brushes damp or likes applying shimmers with a fingertip, OR doesn’t mind some packing and light fallout when working with a dry brush. The matte eyeshadows were more powdery, but they were buildable, blendable, and easy enough to work with.

Ingredients
Python #2 is bright, light lime green with moderate, warm undertones and a sparkling finish. It had an opaque color payoff paired with a smooth, moderately dense texture that was lightly emollient but not too heavy or too firmly pressed into the pan. Hence, it still picked up nicely with a dry brush and had good adhesion without using fingertips. It wore well for eight hours before fading visibly.
