You get what you pay for
The good stuff:<br />This palette has beautiful colors that initially are quite pigmented. The color story is beautiful and there is a good mix of matte and shimmers. The palette is not too large to travel with.<br /><br />The not so good stuff:<br />There is a risk when shipping any palette that some shadows might break in the pan. It could be because of how the package is handled. Unfortunately this was my case and several shadows were broken upon arrival. Though there was a plastic cover, there wasn't enough protection in the packaging to help buffer the palette for the journey.<br /><br />Also, some of the colors go on great and are vibrant when you pack them on the lid, but the color diffuses quickly when you try to blend. I noticed this especially with the reds. This is not a problem with many of the other shades, which blended well.<br /><br />Overall:<br />It's an ok palette if you're on a tight budget and want a variety of colors. I'm giving 5 stars since you do get what you pay for.
