Graftobian corrector swatches

Swatches of my Graftobian corrector palette which is quite creamy and easy to blend. Not something I use too often but I always carry it in my kit anyway just in case. Correctors are used before foundation (or can even be mixed with foundation) as opposed to concealers which is used after foundation.
Correctors work by using opposite colours on the colour wheel to cancel each other out therefore hiding imperfections. So Soft Orange Neutral neutralises blue, Yellow Hi-Lite cancels deep reds and purples, Muted Green removes redness, Pink Hi-Lite counteracts greys or browns and Extra Hi-Lite is a light highlighter.

Soft Orange Neutral, Yellow Hi-Lite, Muted Green, Pink Hi-Lite, Extra Hi-Lite.

Graftobian Cool lip colour palette

I really regret not getting the Graftobian super palette and instead only purchasing the fashion palette to try first and of course purchasing the cool lip palette after because I'd fallen in love with them.

At the time i'd already had a few lip palettes and though it would be easier and lighter to carry the 5 colour lip palette around and since the super palette is made up of the fashion, cool and speciality palette plus a red and 2 glosses it's a bit too late now.

Admittedly they are much easier to pack in my kit and I can always purchase the speciality and lip gloss palette separately in the future if I want need all the colors in the super palette.

(L-R) nude, soft cherry, Plum wine, garnet, savage

Graftobian Fashion lip palette

The Graftobian fashion palette is one of my favorite go to lip palettes. Their lipstick formulation and texture is great, not too waxy or creamy and nice pigmentation, i've had this palette for a while but there's still plenty left as you only need a little bit.

The colors are all very nice and natural for bridal work and i find i reach for this palette the most when doing photographic work  because they look great on camera.

(L-R) sandalwood, kiss me, autumn rust, dorothy, ebony
