My Review

First up, I love the packaging of this palette. The mould matches the new mascara perfectly and it feels sturdy and luxurious with a huge mirror.

As I have said already, the shades are gorgeous. I particularly love all the shades in the middle row – Pulsing, Full Potential, Blow and Tantric. All The Way and Code Red are stunning and Uncensored Black is potentially the deepest, darkest black I have ever played with.

If you love eyeshadow, then I think you will really enjoy this palette. The colour pay off is immense, the textures are smooth and creamy, and the shimmers really do shine in a liquid metallic way. Love it!
