Review (3/5): Pros & Cons
This is a good palette for somebody who is travelling or always on the go. It has both eyeshadows and blush, has a built-in mirror, and is compact enough to carry in a purse. I don't reach for this palette as often as I do some others, though. The colors are very neutral, but almost too neutral, if that makes sense. The eyeshadows are basically different shades of brown, more so than what the picture looks like. That's not necessarily a bad thing, and if I want a minimalist, very natural look, this is a decent palette choice. These shades don't inspire me to be creative, though. And putting eyeshadow primer on first is a must if you want your eyeshadow to last throughout the day. And I personally have to spend more time blending with this palette. Don't get me wrong. There are a lot of bad palettes out there, and this is not one of them, especially at this price range. And stila is a solid brand; its mascaras and liquid lipsticks are amazing. I have had this palette for almost three months now and have put off reviewing it, because I am always honest with my reviews, and it's much more uncomfortable to post an "it's okay" review than an 'it's perfect!" review.
