You are NOT helping with my desire for this palette! Great review, thanks for sharing!

Kaleidos – Flower Punk ✌
……
👁 Look Created: Cut-Crease Shapes/Diagonal Stripe
……
⚫ Packaging: 0.89g each, thin, completely removable double-sided mirror, colorful plastic packaging, palette name is front & center, luxury-weight, magnetic closure, small rectangle shape, large mirror inside, pans are not intended to be removable, shade names are designated below each shadow
……

……
⚫ Formulas Included: 3 formulas (6 mattes, 1 metallic, & 2 sparkling duochromes
……
⚫ Designation: cool, earthy tones
……
⚫ Dexterity Concerns: this type of packaging requires some maneuvering. The magnets are quite strong, & you need a solid grip to remove the cover from the palette. It is recommended by the brand to ‘slide’ the cover off (instead of pulling it). To slide it requires the use of both hands.
……
⚫ Type of Press: soft – a lot of kickback in pan, no fallout on my face; can do either base or eyes first with this palette
……
⚫ Extra Information: made by an American & Chinese team (one of the first companies to cross-borders w/ products & vision), this palette represents Kaleidos’ vision of lush golden greens & earthy tones, cruelty-free, vegan, 12-month PAO
⚠️ NOTE: As of 1/1/20, cosmetic animal-testing is NO longer a requirement on made-in OR imported cosmetics in China. Each company operates at its own discretion in that regard.

🔎 REVIEW:
🔸️Patchiness: no patchiness
🔸️Blendability: an easier formula to blend, although I had more trouble blending the shades in this palette as compared to other Kaleidos palettes
🔸️Fallout: experienced no fallout
🔸️Shade Variance: this palette has a nice ‘light-to-dark’ gradient. There are no traditional ‘neutral transition’ shades
🔸️Formula: the matte formula is definitely my favorite eyeshadow formula, period. They are practically ‘creams’, & are extremely advanced in terms of functionality. You will NOT be disappointed with the matte formula. There are two duochromes, & they are truly light-shifting shades. For this formula, there’s a VERY soft base pigment, so they apply more along the lines of ‘toppers’. They are very soft & easy to implement into any look. The metallic is my favorite shade. If you touch it, it has almost a ‘putty-like’ feel; denting in where your finger touches. What I like BEST about this shade, is that it’s TOTALLY & COMPLETELY buildable. Due to that, you can utilize this one shade in so many varying ways. You can gently tap it all over, or use a packing brush to layer it up for the ULTIMATE shine.
🔸️Packaging: I personally like this packaging – it’s quite unique, & I find that by being unattached, it’s a LOT easier to use the included mirror, as I have more control over placement without the extra palette weight.
🔸️Recommendation: I wanted to do something to attempt to use almost every shade in this palette, as I love how all the colors look together. I really enjoy this palette, & I envision so many more styles of looks to create with it. The price per shade is affordable. This palette is easy to store. I am keeping this in my collection.
▪️If you are interested in this palette, I would definitely recommend it.
