This palette four shadows and one powder eyeliner. This is a full size palette.
Now I was super excited to try this out. The colors look so promising and beautiful nuetral shades. So when I tried it out today the shades all blended out muddy and I actually used three shadows in the look above but it looks like I used one. The shades are not very pigmented at all and the top right one doesnt even have any powder pay off. The shades are hard feeling to them and I had to re layer and layer to get any pigment.
Here are the swatches that barely show up.
I wasn't fond of these shadows but maybe you will be. It just depends because if you like light sheer colors then this would be perfect.
