My experience

Isn't the packaging gorgeous? This looks so high end like something that should be sold at Sephora!

The range of shimmery champagnes and taupes practically gave me an orgasm hahaha! So I snatched this immediately even though I know where I got it was overpriced at $17.99.

This palette is designed to create 3 different looks from natural to playful to dramatic from right to left. There are 9 eyeshadows and 3 for each look. Every section includes a highlighter, lid color, and liner from right to left. It makes creating a smokey eye extremely easy! Or you can mix and match to create your custom looks~

 From right to left. Natural, Playful, Dramatic

I thought this would be my HG but sadly no.... cause overall the pigmentation were not great... The medium lid shades show up much lighter than as shown. The liner shades are also too sheer to really define the eyes.

It also comes with a specially designed sponge tip applicator. This was very useful to use in a pinch~ You can really create your look from start to finish with this one applicator! Perfect for on the go!~


Here's the directions written on the box:
Create the Classic Nude Eye: 1. Sweep medium shade over lid as base. 2. Apply darkest shade to upper & lower lash line with pointed tip of applicator to line eyes. For added definition, apply darkest shade in the contour of upper eyelid. To intensify color, wet applicator. 3. Use lightest shade to highlight brow bone. 

Conclusion
85%
I love this to death but the lack of pigmentation really took some points off :(
