Review (5/5): Favorite Palette Ever!!
I purchased this product in a store, but I am such a fan I had to write a review. Ever since I purchased this palette, it has been my go-to for everyday makeup. I am fair-skinned with dark hair and hazel eyes, and the colors are perfect. I don't always use every color in a palette and I don't always place the colors as directed, but in this case, Stila knows what they are talking about!
The large color on the left is your all-over base, and I apply that first. Next, I go to the top right corner and apply this grayish color from crease to browbone. Third, I take the darkest color and place it quite heavily (but narrowly) in the crease and a little in the corner and lash line. Next, I put the highlight (lightest) color just under the brow and also outside the inner corner of the eye. Finally, I put the shimmery gold-like color in the middle across the lid and blend all the colors with a blending brush. I use the darker blush normally, but use the light one as a highlight if I want the added effect. I love that when I am doing my makeup on the run, I only have to grab this one container and my makeup brushes (I have the EcoTools Eye Enhancing Duo Brush set with four tips on two brushes, so even there you don't have to take as much with you).
The quality of the product is excellent and it blends well. Other than the darkest brown, the eyeshadow pigments are not super intense, so you can go light or apply more for a deeper intensity.
