Like I stated earlier I found mine for only $9.99 at tj maxx.
The packaging: Overall I think the packaging is beautiful. Its a hard case metal type palette and also has a strong feeling spring closure. The design on the front is very pretty and I love that the names of the colors in this palette are all listed on the back of the case, as shown in the picture below.
The names are clearly visible and very convenient, I always hate it when a palette doesnt list the names, or if they do its often on a removable slip.
The shades from left to right: Forgiveness, Sand Timer, Chandler, Tijuana, Wonderland, Shiba, Babe, and You Alone. This palette also comes with a travel size autograph pencil in the shade Puro Amor.
A size comparison of the autograph pencil in Puro Amor.
Swatches: From left to right we have the autograph pencil in the shade puro amor, next is the eyeshadows in the shades Forgiveness (a beautiful sparkly creme white shade with gold shimmer), Sand Timer (a great everyday light taupe color with slight shimmer), Chandler (a vibrant orange spice), Tijuana (an awesome black with tons of purple shimmer although not a chunky shimmer), Wonderland (a very dark plum shade), Shiba (a slightly lighter plum shade with silver glitter), Babe (a bright purple with silver glitter) and You Alone (another white creme shade with a very fine sheen to it, this has become my everyday highlighting color).
My Final Thoughts: Overall I think that if you can get your hands on one of these for such a low price that it is more than worth your money. Of course if youre not huge fan of vibrant bright colors you might not get a ton out of it. The highlighting shades are absolutely amazing and the eyeliner is great as well, long staying power and very black. The shadows overall can tend to be a bit chalky but its very manageable. I also love to use the light taupe shade in Sand Timer all over the lid with one of the highlighting shades for an everyday simple eye look. I would definitely say, go for it!
