Apply the light shade to the upper eyelid and blend upwards towards the brow line. Then use the darkest shade on the lower eyelid and blend it out. Apply the dark shade to the upper lash line and the inner corners of the eyes. Blend a little bit. Use darker shade on the moveable part of the lid, blending well to avoid any harsh edges.
The quality of the eyeshadows is honestly terrible. All the glitter shades are coarse and dry, like sand, they fall out and scratch the eyelid. All the satin shades get muddy after a couple of touches with dry, clean brushes and don't pick up well. They apply better with fingers and even swatch decently on the hand, but on the eyelid, they look patchy and pale. After every makeup application, I have to clean up the muddy eyeshadows with tape. There are only 5 matte shades, and they are questionable: powdery color, sickly yellow-brown, sudden bright orange, and two pinks. There is nothing to add depth or darken the makeup, the only dark swampy satin shade applies so sheer that it's barely visible. It's a disappointment, not a palette. I'm giving it 1 star only for some light beautiful shades that, with effort, can be applied. I would add a star for the pleasant scent, but it seems I'm allergic to it - my eyelids become red and swollen by the evening.
The colors are quite dull and chalky. They blend decently with each other. I don't recommend applying the glitter on the eyelids as it may fall off. It has a pleasant scent of tea rose. And, in fact, it is made in China, not in the United Kingdom as stated on the website.
They are not as pale in reality. The greens shimmer in a lime-like hue.
Palette that surprised me :) I'm a beginner makeup enthusiast, and I already have over 15 palettes in my collection. Usually, I am surprised in a negative way, but this is not the case! The packaging is cool, and it has a rose scent (I love this smell, but it's definitely not for everyone), but that's not the main thing! When I opened the palette and swatched it with my finger, I was disappointed. The swatches were not that great, and I couldn't imagine how they would look on my eyes. But when I started applying the eyeshadows with a brush (out of habit), I was amazed! These shadows are perfectly picked up and applied with brushes! This is the first palette that works better with brushes than with fingers for me, and I have the balm, Juvia's Place, and even Colourpop, which are higher in terms of price range. But with those, I have to "mess up" my fingers to achieve intensity :) The colors are amazing - delicacy (a light metallic peach), dates (a very bright bronze), pistachio (a beautiful pistachio shade), pomegranate (a marsala shade, but not matte, it has a shimmer)... I'm not a fan of glitters, but I will probably use them because they stayed intact on my hand and didn't lose their sparkle when I rubbed them or smudged them. I've been contemplating about buying this palette for a month, and I'm very satisfied that I did. I can definitely recommend it! (Swatches done with a brush)
Beautiful palette with 4 glitter shades. Some of the colors are very light, but overall, it is quite good. The packaging and mirror are also beautiful.
This palette is incredibly beautiful! When you open it, you experience genuine childlike delight!
When ordering, I focused on the presence of orange, khaki, and various types of glitter - exactly what I was missing. But a pleasant surprise was the addition of several pastel matte shades, which are perfect for everyday wear, as well as very delicate shimmers.
The eyeshadows do not crumble when applied, and while the pigmentation is not the best I've encountered, they layer very naturally and blend well, so it's not a problem for me.
I definitely recommend purchasing it.
