Lovely staple!

This eyeshadow palette never let me down. I use it when I don't want to think too hard about my look; all shadows apply and perform beautifully. My only gripe is that you always get a very similar look; it doesn't offer much variety. But I have other palettes for colourful looks, this one is a perfect everyday palette! My favourite shade is Sheen, I wish I could buy it by itself, it's the most gorgeous subtle sparkle shadow that is like nothing else in my collection. I highly recommend this for anybody who is looking for a relyable nude palette!

Beautiful but doesn't stay

This palette is something else! I was so excited to get it and start using it, and it's all people say it is: gorgeous shades, beautiful sparkles and stunning multichromes. Unfortunately, as pretty as the looks were freshly applied, they didn't last on me at all. The shadows are so emolient, it's like applying lipstick on my eyes: it transfered and creased and didn't even last two hours. I tried it with different primers, mixed with Aqua Seal, applied over glitter glue, sprayed with setting spray, set with loose powder - nothing really helped. I do have a bit of hooding, so some glitter transfer is to be expected, but none of my other eyeshadows (and I have an extensive collection) ever behaved like this. It's a crying shame, because this palette is gorgeous and I would have loved to keep and use it. I have watched and read a lot of reviews, and none of them did a wear test, they only talk about how it looks, swatches and applies. Proceed with caution!
