Midwest Glam has been up and running since 2013. I’d like to think I’ve come a long way since the earlier days. I’m not saying I’m where I want to be now. I’ll always strive to be better. But looking at my photos, swatches, and looks from the earlier days has me cringing. Some were so bad I’ve honestly considered taking down the post. But I won’t do that. We all start somewhere. I kind of like looking back to see how much has changed. Even if it pains me.

Rather then take down my cringe-inducing posts I thought it might be fun to sort of revisit them. The photos won’t be as great because the product has been used, but I can still change it up a bit. I can take better swatches. I can redo those looks. Maybe use a heavier hand? Really go for it this time. Again, I’m not saying this is IT or perfect in my eyes. But it’s my idea of a much better attempt.

Anyway, now that it’s officially Fall I’ve been eying all of the Fall palettes. I swear they can slap the words pumpkin spice on anything and I’d buy it. But I’m trying not to buy into the hype. Pumpkin spice donut? I’ll take two please. Pumpkin spice palette? Um… pretty sure I already own a bunch of orange, red, and brown shades. So I went digging through my collection and sure enough I had plenty of Fall inspired sets/palettes. One of my favorites being the SauceBox Autumn Goddess Set.

You can see the original post here. It’s a really pretty set that contains 5 eyeshadows. The pans are pretty big. I have them in a Z-Palette alongside some other single eyeshadows. What I like about this set is that the first shadow can also be used as a highlighter. Which is how I use it whenever I reach for this set. You can see my updated look below.

For this look I used the 1st shade on my lid, I used the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th shades in my crease, I used the 5th shade on my outer lid/crease, I used the 4th and 5th shade on my lower lash line, and the 1st shade was also used on the inner corner of my eye as well as my highlighter (on my face).

The Autumn Goddess Set is easily one of my favorite Fall sets. The colors scream Fall. They are nicely pigmented and apply and blend like a dream. SauceBox recently had a restock for a short time. It’s currently sold out, but they seem to restock from time to time. I got lucky a few years back and was able to scoop it up during one of their restocks.

What are your favorite Fall sets/palettes?

How beautiful is the SauceBox Autumn Goddess Set? When I first saw it floating around Instagram I just knew I had to make it mine. But it was sold out! Lucky for me it became available on preorder just before my birthday. So my mother-in-law and her husband ended up getting it for me. Happy Birthday to me!

It was my first time ever ordering from SauceBox. They stated that preordered items would ship on a certain date and it did in fact ship on that date. Within a few days my package arrived. Everything was packaged nicely. The pans are much larger than typical pans. They came enclosed in a plastic package that was tucked inside a black cardboard package. They were all bundled up in a small black drawstring bag. There was also a small handwritten note included in the package. All very nice touches.

Some of the shadows have some markings on them. I think it was from the plastic packaging. It appeared to be touching/rubbing against the top. But nothing was broken or even scratched. Minor imperfections aside, the shadows were all soft and smooth. They’re nicely pigmented. They applied and blended beautifully. Even the darker brown shade! I also want to point out that even though they look intimidating in the pan, they are surprisingly very wearable. While you can totally create a nice bold look with this set, you can just as easily tone it down and create a more natural Autumn friendly look.

I’m really happy that I was finally able to get my hands on this set. You can see a look I created with the Autumn Goddess Set below. I’d also like to note that I used that first shade as my highlighter too. When I applied it on the inner corner of my eye I thought that it would make a great highlighter. So I just went for it. If you decide to try it out too, use a very light hand because as I mentioned they’re very pigmented.
