Hi, hello!
I hope you have all been doing well. I’m really excited to share with you my thoughts on the holiday palette by Marc Jacobs Beauty, The Wild One! I bought this palette on a whim based on my friend Rebecca’s recommendation (you can find her here!) and I’m so glad I listened to her. This palette has 20 irresistible shades that honestly don’t look THAT great just looking at the palette but once you swatch it, prepare to be amazed.
In terms of the packaging, the shape is the same as the holiday palette in previous years which is nice, sturdy and feels expensive (which it is..lol). The packaging around Marc Jacobs holiday collection this year is animal print, and this palette includes a zebra print that looks super luxurious and high-end! The palette itself costs $124 CAD and $99 USD from Sephora.
The shades with a star* beside them are my absolute favourites in this palette!
From Top to Bottom:
- (1) Paper Tiger
- (2) Nest Egg
- (3) Golden Fleece*
- (4) Foxy!
From Top to Bottom:
- (5) Nine Lives*
- (6) Lion’s Share*
- (7) Cat Fight
- (8) Free Bird
From Top to Bottom:
- (9) Sheepish
- (10) Chameleon*
- (11) Dog & Pony
- (12) Bearish
From Top to Bottom:
- (13) Early Bird
- (14) Hen Party*
- (15) Bull’s Eye*
- (16) Cat Call
From Top to Bottom:
- (17) White Elephant
- (18) Funny Bunny
- (19) Pea-cocky
- (20) Crow’s Nest
Overall, I think this palette includes beautiful satins, mattes and duochromes that are super unique to this holiday collection. I think if you are a makeup collector and have the basics already, this is a beautiful addition to create beautiful looks with! Or if you are more of an adventurous person and want some different shades in your collection, this is a perfect palette to get as well.
This is definitely a win for me due to the creamy and buttery shadows Marc Jacobs always delivers. Is this a win for you?
Love always,
I love the one from last year, it’s freakin amazing! This one seems to not disappoint too, but as it’s so pricey and the colors don’t excite me as much I’m going to pass it, but if someone gifted it to me I would use it a lot ahaha xx

I’ve wanted this palette for a while but don’t know if I can justify spending all that money on it. But the shades are beautiful and look super pigmented
