While a makeup artist may find this a fun palette to play with and work with, I am not an expert. The deep purple shade looks like a slightly reddish brown in the pan for example. It is not the easiest palette to work with and some of the shades are deceiving. This palette has plenty of shades I like and I really do enjoy the shimmers. There is still a great deal of patchiness from the darker shades but the application was more effective with the lid primer. While they are different shadows, you can see the eyeshadow primer really did help with the smoothness of the application. No primer on the left and lid primer applied on the right I did find that adding in an eyeshadow primer to the lids helped with the application. All of the shadows really had that patchiness when applying them. And it becomes much more apparent that they are a bit patchy in the swatches. The darker shades also had the powdery-ness to them. while they had the same problems as the darker shades, they didn’t seem as big because these were lighter shades. Because they were lighter shades any excess powder was easy to wipe off and easy to ignore. A quick tap before application knocked off the excess powder and it was fine. The color selection is nice.Īs you might be able to see with the swatches, these shades are a bit powdery. i have every single one of them in different palettes, but it is nice to see them collected into one. There is nothing really surprising about them. I think these are the shades designed to be the everyday nudes while the third row bumps up the pigmentation. The top row of mattes are the lighter shades. (Hence the reason I covered the shimmers first). The same can not be said about the mattes. They worked well with absolutely no problems. Laura (3rd from left) and Expose (fifth from left) tended to look nearly identical so that felt a bit like a missed opportunity, but over all I really enjoyed the shimmers. They applied well, felt soft, had little fall out and blended beautifully. To be honest, I had no problems with the shimmers. Second Row Shimmers swatched left to right I apologize if getting them out of order bothers anyone, but the shimmers are the second row. Normally I would swatch row 1, then 2 then three, but as all of the shimmers are in the middle row I am going to start with a posting of that row’s swatches. The Shimmers behaved very differently to the mattes. It looked like the sort of palette that I could get a lot of use out of and I couldn’t wait to try it out. It looks beautiful on the outside and when you open it, the palette looked exactly like the every day kind of shades I liked with the bonus of a row of golden bronze-y shimmers that just called out to me. when I first received this in a Boxycharm I was thrilled. This eyeshadow palette, Nude Prism by Lunar Beauty was an interesting one to review.
