First of all HAPPY HALLOWEEN everyone! How did you spend last night? I was covered with blankets in my bed watching my favourite halloween themed films and my favourite shows haha. We don't really celebrate Halloween here in Czech. It's a pity because I love Halloween so my Halloween night looks the same every year haha!
Are you ready for the review? Let's goooo!
I need to say I enjoyed testing this one because...aah just look at the shades! I don't know why but in a last couple of months my eyes are very attracted to shimmery eyeshadows and it is weird because I was the one who was really into a matte eyes. Don't know what happened but now I just have a pretty much shimmer eyeshadows in my collection and I love it!
The packaging
What can I say about packaging. I think the most important thing you need to know is the huge mirror in it and that is probably it. Like for me is a huge mirror in an eyeshadow palette big plus because sometimes my mirror is too dirty and I'm in a rush so there is no time for cleaning it. So I use the mirror in the eyeshadow palette and it's alright.
Shades
Alright, my favourite part! When I looked at the shade for the first time it literally screamd AUTUMN to me! I looks like you have a colorful leaves fallen down from a trees in front of you in this palette!
I found 6 or 7 matte shadow in this palette. And I am saying 6 or 7 because I'm quite not sure where that one fits. It is the very last one which is called Night and it is like a matte black but I can see a tiny little hint of silver shimmer in it. So I'm not sure in which category this one belongs but I like this shade. I really like those tiny little glitters in it. So from these matte shades we've got here one vanila like shade named Paper, I use this one under my brows. Then one pinky toned named Uncover which looks like a matte one but actually it isn't. It's like a pinky tone that looks like a matte shade but when you apply it on the lid it has like a soft shimmer but you can't see any tiny glitters in it. So this one falls within the shimmer category. The other four are all shades of brown. I like to put the second darkest brown into my crease and its name is Raw and the darkest one named Pure chocolate is perfect shade for my eyebrows. Really lovely natural shades.
(on my fingers: Red Night, Copper shimmer, Golden Night and GreenStars)
As I said...The very pigmented eyeshadows are like a gel-infused shadows so it makes them ver easy to apply, I also tried apply them with wet brush. It worked but they were not as much blendable as with the help of dry brush and the final result seemed like the same. Maybe they lasted a bit longer. But if you want to apply them with wet brush, go for it you can do the blending part with a new layer and dry brush. Same with the other shades. Very blendable, great pigmentation. The lasting finish...In this step I need to retest it because when I worn it for longer than six or seven hours it melted into my crease even when I was wearing an eyeshadow primer. I always wear an eyeshadow primer because my lids are very oily so I want to be prepared. And my absolutely best eyeshadow primer is by Avon. And I love this one because it really does the job. I've never had a problem with it until now. So I tried to apply another primer (my old one by Elf) and it was a bit better but not very much. So I'm not sure if it is because of the shadows or the primer. So I'll test it with another primer and I will see.
Price
If you're makeup addcit like me and you walk to the store, something very nice catches your eyes and you just need to have it this palette is very affordable for you. I bought this one for £ 10.5 which is in my opinion very good price because these shadows are really good quality and you have like a palette of 32 of them so...that is amazing price!
Final thoughts
For me this one is the best palette I own in this moment. I don't have any of high end makeup cause I'm still a poor student haha. I like the shades, I like the packaging, I love that every shadow has its own name I just ove everything about it! Good price, easy storage, one minus for the lasting finish but as I said I am not sure if it is because of the shadows or my primer.
If you decided to buy this one or you already have it in your colletion let me know in the comments below what you think about it! :)
