I think we need to take a moment..just one about how raved about this palette is! I mean it has become a staple in every girl's collection! I guess we cannot go wrong in saying that this palette is amazing right off the bat! Can any beauty tell me that they did not like this palette? I don't think so ladies! This palette lives up to its standards. Lorac... round of applause to you for making my eyeshadow looks just a bit easier and more glamorous!
Okay, as usual, packaging! I love the fact that the shadows are large squares! It gives just the right amount of shadow and I've had this palette for so long and still haven't hit pan on any of them! It's kind've shocking actually! Clearly, just by looking at the palette, you can tell Taupe is my go to color! Beautiful for just running through the crease to head out the door! Love how the Lorac PRO name is inside the palette! It gives such a unique touch! My ONLY AND I MEAN ONLY negative thing to say about this is that I'm not a fan of the rubberized packaging. If you're a messy person, any sort of makeup residue on your hands will leave a mark on the palette and it sucks! The sleekness of the black gets ruined by foundation hands! Then again, I can live with that as long as I get to keep the beautiful shadows inside!
Lorac was definitely going for the warmer tones in this palette! The only cool tone in this palette is the black and grey in the last column but thats understandable! There are 16 total shadows in the palette: the top row is completely matte, and the bottom row is all shimmer! Perfect for going from a day to night look! Really though! You can do a natural eye to a dramatic smokey eye just using this one palette and that's already a 5 star review to me.. duh ladies who doesn't love their go-to palette.. this one happens to be mine!
Top Row: White, Cream, Tape, Light Pink, Mauve, Sable, Espresso, Black
As I said, this row is all matte! I absolutely love this, and as we know, the matte looks are coming back! I love the fact that it ranges from a berry tone to a warm brown tone in this row! Its amazing! These shadows are so pigmented that they'd go for any skin tone! If I wanna wear an all-matte look...this palette! Of course, we can't ignore the fact that the texture is so soft! Now, when shadows are usually soft, they tend to not be so pigmented, but more chalky. But these shadows don't do that! They're just as pigmented as the shimmers! This palette is just to die for!
Bottom Row: Nude, Champagne, Gold, Light Bronze, Pewter, Garnet, Deep Purple, Black
Okay, hold the phone! BUTTER! THESE SHADOWS FEEL LIKE BUTTER! Shimmers tend to be really glittery and have more fall out than pigments, but, of course, these shadows don't do that! They're amazingly pigmented for shimmers and literally glide on the lid like butter. The first thing I noticed was how soft they were! But the great thing is, they're easily bendable! I don't mean the type of shimmers that just blend away with the flick of a brush...oh no. These shadows take on a beautiful fade when blended and I can't even deal. Amazing...that's all I have to say...just AMAZING!
Now to the price, the palette is $42.00 which in some eyes is kind of pricey, but am I right ladies when I say this palette is unbelievably worth the money! You get 16 shadows that are stunning and compliment each other so well! The variety of looks you can create with this palette is insane! Please, beauties, if you haven't purchased this palette yet, go to your nearest Sephora, Ulta, internet browser, wherever you get your makeup from...GO BUY THIS!
