Review:
A makeup palette containing eyeshadows, blush, bronzer, and lip color, all in a compact smaller than a pack of cards? Genius packaging! I received this as a gift and was instantly smitten with this. Then...I tried out the shadows.
The palette contains a pretty decent variation of colors--brown, gold, black, blue, pink, white-gold, and pewter. The problem is, a few of these aren't pigmented at all and are slightly chalky when applied. The gold, black, brown, and white-gold are nicely pigmented and apply nicely, but most of the other colors are pretty disappointing.
The blush is a universally flattering basic pink shade, slightly fuchsia. The bronzer is a bit shimmery and quite beautiful when applied. It's not dark enough for contouring, but would make a good overall bronzer.
The lip color is nothing more than a slightly tinted lip balm, and doesn't offer any real color or coverage, but is moisturizing.
Recommendation:
This is perfect for makeup beginners, teens, and those who don't already have a few travel-friendly palettes. The compact size of the palette is a great consolidation of lots of makeup without the burden of having to carry around a lot of different items separately.
I wouldn't recommend this for anyone who already has a lot of makeup and palettes, as this will probably be a disappointment, with the lack of pigmentation in about half of the eyeshadows.
Grade:
6.5/10
