This palette is No. 2 Amazon..these eye shadow and eye liner collection consists of 6 eye shadows of 1g each..about a size of our new 5 rupee coin and 2 gel or cream liners of 1.5g each. It has a small dual sided brush..one side is a angled liner for the cream liners and the other side is a small fluffy crease brush..well its actually very tiny..but the angled liner brush is quite nice ! And also a stretched mirror below the brush.
This is a perfect travel palette. You get everything from shadows to liners and the brush in one palette..a total package !
The shadows are decently pigmented..some are more..and some are a little less..but none are powdery or chalky..all have a metallic finish and are shimmery..but not glittery…if you are a fan of mattes..this is not for you..the staying power is a good 6-7 hours even without a base.
The gel liners are decently pigmented too..the black is a little sheer but the chocolate brown is nicely pigmented..these cream liners are water proof and stay around 6-7 hours on the lids.
Top Row has coppery rust, true gold and plum brown..
Bottom Row has a shimmery white, rust orange and bluish grey.
Cream liners..black (veering towards grey) and chocolate brown
Gold and Rust orange..both center shades are quite pigmented..I loved the plum brown the most..and the chocolate brown cream liner..Overall its a warm palette.
Pros:
1. Its a warm palette with well selected shades.
2. A perfect travel palette.
3. All the eye shadows are decently pigmented.
4. Gel liners are equally nice.
5. Comes with a brush where in the angled liner is pretty useful for this travel friendly palette.
6. A steal at £3.99
Cons:
1. Beauty UK do not have testers.
2. Availability here is an issue. You can buy it here
3. I wish the black was more darker and pigmented.
Overall I quite love this palette..it is super handy..and you get all the combined warm shades with gel liners and a brush in one palette..and at this price..definitely a steal ! Must have..
