I had high expectations for this pallet, and it blew them all away. I was expecting some of the colours to be lacking in pigment or be patchy and glittery but I have not found one that isn't buttery, creamy, and easy to blend. Often times with coloured shadows they can be pigmented but chalky, and when you try to blend they often become muddled. Even when blending complimentary colours (think red and green) they still stay vibrant and pigmented. I highly recommend this to people that want to start playing with more bold shades and those that are experienced with it! -

I'm not new to the makeup rodeo, but this has been a staple of mine for years - both when I had minimal experience and now when I'm quite confident in my abilities. Some backstory: I have slightly hooded eyes and my eyelids are extremely oily. Any and all eye shadow I have tried will slide around and refuses to stay put - except this stuff! I always prime my eyes with either a shadow primer or concealer (something people with oily lids should ALWAYS do), and this stuff doesn't budge even by the end of a 15 hour work day. The colours are so buttery and creamy that they blend like a dream but also have high and build-able coverage. The colours in this pallet are flattering on every skin type and it's a staple for everyone regardless of how much experience they have with makeup! -

I've tried this dry shampoo a few times are there are definitely pros and cons to it. It's in a huge bottle and comes with tons of product, which is really great considering the price point. It has a pleasant smell that isn't overwhelming and works great for many people. As for myself, I have very naturally curly and thick hair, so I always need tons of product in my hair. With this, I feel like I need a lot of product to make my hair feel "clean", but because it is a heavier dry shampoo it leaves my scalp feeling flaky and congested. I don't think this is a great dry shampoo for anyone with thick hair because of the combination of the product density and the amount needed to cover your roots. I have friends with fine hair and they all think it's amazing and gives them a great lift! In my case, it's just not my favourite. -
