(tap to enlarge)

RATING: 9.1

Official Description:

Shimmering nudes and shade-shifting rose glitter catch light for explosive dimension. Burnished mattes smolder with high-impact intensity. These versatile, pigment-rich shades can be used as an eyeshadow or eyeliner, applied wet or dry. The long-wearing, crease-resistant colors can be applied sheer or layered for more dramatic effects. Micronized powder provides improved wear and feel. The formula provides a high-pigment, high-shine finish with ultrafine blends of shimmer, glitter, and pearl to reflect light for eye-catching effects.

WHY WE'RE FEELIN' IT

This palette has some insanely pigmented shimmers that will make for some gorgeous eye shadow looks. My only wish is that it had some darker mattes to use as transition shades for deeper skin tones. The mattes included are more flesh toned (for me) and make it a little harder to create dimension and turn up the drama. If you have deeper skin, you might need to pair this palette with another to maximize its full potential.
