For someone who only knows how to take two or three monochromatic shades and attempt to throw them together to make an "eye look", it took a lot of guts writing this and probably many more makeup-related topics to come.
I was already very much happy with my tiny 8-pan coral palette but when my boyfriend and I dropped by a Morphe store in mid-December, I was surprised that they had a 50% off discount everything. I may be a very basic makeup consumer but I like looking at pretty things and this was just too good to pass on.
The quality is so much better.
I have tried using a Morphe eyeshadow palette before, but I remembered not being so happy with it because half of the colours looked almost identical. They were also extremely chalky and just felt cheap. I am all for affordable products but I also want them to work (don't we all?).
When we bought this, I just poured all my hopes into the chance that they might have improved their formula and my heart fluttered when this product made me realise that they did. The shadows are now creamy and the shimmer/glitter shades do not fall off like crazy - granted that I use my fingers all the time for shimmery ones.
For its price point (got this for around $19 CAD inc. tax), I think this is really a steal. I don't use so much of the product so I know this will last me a long time.
I have to use a primer everytime I use this because my eyelids seems to be the only part of my entire face that produces oil and I don't want the colours to be breaking apart mid-day.
The shade range is very practical.
I do not collect makeup. I only keep the ones I need so I needed the only palette I own to fit in whenever it's needed. I only use brown and pink shades anyway so this fits me just right.
Even though the shades only lean towards light browns and pinks, I think this will still be versatile enough for many occasions. There's no pop of colors and I don't mind because I never use them.
It is surprisingly travel-friendly.
I was surprised that this is slim enough to perfectly fit into my 28x24 cm makeup bag. I saw that they had cardboard packaging for this palette in Sephora but I like this plastic one better. I think this is more suitable for travel. The shade names are not printed on this plastic packaging, but another thing I do not mind at all because I never pay attention to shade names.
Overall, I really enjoy using this product and I am so happy with this that I do not see myself needing any other palette.
The best thing about this palette is that it is extremely easy to use and I don't have to think too much. It is fast, it is easy and even at regular price, this is still fairly affordable.
