Smaller palettes are great, but with a smaller-sized palette it is IMPERATIVE that each shade performs remarkably well. Considering you have limited options to create a look, each shade must do its job to contribute to the overall palette quality.
This review focuses on EACH shade in a palette, tests each shade to its limit, and lets you know which ones function as expected, and which shades are duds. At the end, you can see if the palette is mathematically worth the offering price, or if you should skip it.
Today, we are using the Natasha Danona Coral quint palette. This is my first time deep-diving into this palette, & I’m excited to see how it works.

I’m pretty sure that the brush is their shader brush
In your eye pics, are you using primer & brush application? Or just brush?
