Nice, but one caveat for Dark Skin

The powders are undoubtedly beautiful in this palette . They are soft and buttery to the touch, and can be applied lightly or with a heavier hand, which I appreciate as it makes mixing these blushes very easy, as well as sharing them with fairer skinned friends. The blushes themselves range from magenta pink to coral and look lovely built up on my medium dark skin tone as well as those deeper and fairer than me. That said, if you are in the same color family as Gabrielle Union, the bronzer will be more of a setting powder for you, the lightest powder highlight will still lose its beige tone in favor of a soft eggshell white. Still usable as an under eye setting powder, but with the peach being there and the "bronzer", I'm not sure it's not a total loss for me. As the swatches on the darker skinned model are more Kelly Rowland in hue, I thought it important to add the perspective of a medium dark woman. I too am "golden brown" and I had a totally different experience. Still keeping as I have an extensive makeup collection and can look to other brands for a bronzer. Plus the packaging is to die for. One star off since I feel hardheartedly invited to the party.
