This is my first big palette and I bought it in a whim once I saw the color story. I once had Carly Byble palette from BH cosmetics and I kinda liked the quality of the shadows, so I was convinced to adopt this palette. The color story is unique, a mixed of warm and cool spectrum. You get coral, orange and pink, as well as mauve and cool brown here with different textures: mattes, shimmer, and metallics. It also has a sweet arrange of blushes which I am most drawn into. The colours of the blushes are just complete and beautiful: light coral, pinks, dusty rose, and deep terracotta. The matte eyeshadows are smooth without any noticeable kickbacks, it blends and builds easily, with decent pigmentation. They are ranging from light shade to set your lids, medium tones which can be used as transition colours, and deep shades to deepened the outer corner of your eyes. The shimmer perform quiet well but not extraordinary, with the exception for the light pink shade on 6th column and 2nd row (it's very hard to pick with brush or finger). The metallics are superb, they are so soft, pigmented and super reflective which I am in love with. There are some kickbacks and fallout from the metallics shade, but you can wet your brush (with the eyeshadow on it) before you apply to your lids to prevent fallouts. as for the blush, they are suuuuper pigmented, so better use a tapered or less dense brush to apply (I use RT blush brush for perfect application). Some downsides of this palette are: it doesn't have deeper shadows to create the smokey look (but It's fine for me), and some shadows stain on your eyelids, just make sure you cleanse your eyelids well. But overall, I recommend this palette to you who wants to have fun with bright colours :)
