This palette features five cool-toned shades with lots of shimmer.
The top shade in the palette is a shimmery white. On the right, the shade is a very frosty pale pink. The bottom shade is a shimmery light lavender. The shade on the left is a dark greyish purple with an overspray of gold glitter. In the center of the palette, the shade looks very similar to the one on the left, but it has an overspray of silver glitter instead.
When I first received this, I hesitated because the colors looked very glittery, but the glitter doesn't show up much on the lids. After the initial swatch, the overspray was gone, leaving you with just a frosty base color.
Overall, I think it's a decent palette for the price of $7.07. They all have good color payoff. The texture is soft, but it does feel a bit gritty. These eyeshadows wear around eight hours on me without creasing or fading when applied over a primer. I only wish they included a medium shade instead of three light shades and two dark shades that look too close to each other.

I don't know if it's just the picture, but I can't see much difference between the 3 shades (and the 2 shades).
ReplyDeletei still wanna try it though!
You're right. The only difference between the two dark shades is the shimmer (gold vs. silver). The 3 light shades look a bit similar as well because they're all light and frosty, but you can still see the slight difference when you click the photo to enlarge. :)
