Mostly true to colour

I loved the look of this palette when I first saw it online and it has mostly lived up to expectations. The packaging is very sleek compared to the original Viseart 12-pan palettes, with the metal gold-coloured casing and engraving. My only real problem is with the bottom row. The colour that most caught my eye was the blue-grey one in the middle, but it looks a lot darker on the lid and loses the hint of blue, so it creates a completely smokey eye if you use it in the centre of the lid. The purple on the left and black on the right seem redundant within the palette, as you can create a very similar outer-corner look with either colour so I would have preferred a different colour instead of both of these shade. Having said that, the rest of the palette is beautiful and all of the shades perform well on the eye, so the quality is really there and you can create a variety of different looks with these 9 shades.

I sent it back

I didn't order this from Beautylish, but I ended up sending it back to where I had ordered it from. The shape and size of the brush seemed more like a body brush then a face brush (I also have the Rae Morris 26 Radiance brush which is a similar shape but much smaller, softer and easier to use to apply foundation). The bristles were so hard compared to my other goat hair brushes and I honestly didn't then want to try it on my face. This brush isn't cheap either, so if you really want this type of unique brush style, I'd recommend paying extra to get the Rae Morris version as it's much more user-friendly and a higher quality and softer type of goat hair.
