    Hard to work with

    I love tarte, but this palette was not the greatest. The shades are gorgeous, and extremely shimmery, however they are not pigmented enough, nor blend-able in any way. They are difficult to work with if you are not experienced with makeup, but I am not certain they would be easier to work with if I did completely know what I was doing. For $48, I would be more willing to spend a bit more on something what works better. Do not recommend.

    A little dissapointed

    I have two of these palettes and both have very pretty colors. The colour pay off is OK and the blendability is OK as well. Compared to other high-end pallets it’s just OK. Hey still reach for this pallette frequently it just requires a little more work.

    Long wear shadow

    I am a regular user of the Rainforest of the sea eye shadow palate. I find the shadows hold up pretty good on my oily skin even without a primer. By the end of the day it does crease but lasts longer than some other products I have tried. I like the colour variety of the palate and I find the palate seems to last a long time. I have been using the same palate for a number of months.

    Just a pretty package

    I received this in a boxy charm subscription. Very disappointing. The packaging is adorable and with the brand being TARTE you would expect to get your money’s worth with this eyeshadow. However it is lacking in the pigmentation department. As in there is zero pigmentation. I had to run the end of an eyeshadow brush over it and make it loose only to get anything visible on my lid. No more than a pretty package and I would return the product if I had actually purchased it.

    Love this palette

    I received the tarte Rainforest of the Sea Volume II eyeshadow palette in my August Boxycharm. I have now used it several times so can now give my honest review.

    The shades range from the lightest cream to almost black and are all neutral tones, which I particularly like. It is very different from the Amazonian Clay formula which I'm not keen on. This is very velvety and creamy in the palette. It applies smoothly and is much more blendable. In my opinion, this formula is far superior to the Amazonian Clay.

    The first thing I noticed is that there is very little difference between the swatches over primer and those on bare skin. All of the shades worked equally well on both, although I would imagine they would last longer on the lid with primer. I have oily lids, so always use a primer.

    As I have mentioned the shadow goes on very smoothly and all shades had great colour payoff and no kickback or fall out. There are no really shimmery shades in this palette which is great for me. All the shades tend towards matte and satin finishes, although Sunset is the most shimmery.

    The shades can be used to make a neutral look or a more dramatic smokey eye. The shadows all lasted well on my (with primer) for a good eight hours. I had no smudging or creasing during that time.

    Favourite Eyeshadow Palette

    I received this palette in my BoxyCharm in AUgust, but i have to say... I haven't used any other palettes since I'v received this. The colours have such great pigmentation and the powders have very little fall out. WOuld definitely recommend!

    Love these natural neutrals!

    Tarte Rainforest of the Sea ~ Volume II is amazing! Seeing everyone's amazing swatches and shots ~ I just could not resist breaking into this beauty any longer! I adore neutrals and these highly pigmented and frosty cool hues just warm my heart. Very wearable, creamy with long lasting pigment power ~ cruelty & paraben free too!
