🔎 REVIEW:
🔸️Patchiness: no patchiness
🔸️Blendability: very easy to blend
🔸️Fallout: experienced a lot of fallout, mostly from the matte shade ‘Boyz Toy’
🔸️Shade Variance: this palette does not have a good ‘light-to-dark’ gradient between the shades. There are no traditional ‘neutral transition’ shades
🔸️Formula: the mattes were nice & easy to use. The formula is soft & blendable. It’s also highly pigmented, so a little goes a long way. There is no difference between the 1 metallic shade in this palette & the FyngrFoyl formula. The metallic works exactly the same as the others. To be honest, the FyngrFoyl formula was a let-down. Each special shade performs as a ‘topper’, really lacking any true shine & luster. Meant to be applied with the finger, using a brush is a quick way to be disappointed.
🔸️Packaging: I personally love the external STYLE of the packaging, but it’s too bulky for its contents, & the shade layout is not my favorite.
🔸️Recommendation: I had quite some trouble with today’s look. The mattes were fine, but everything else just lacked … dimension. The color-story is definitely not my favorite, either. The price per shade is on the affordable-end. The palette itself is a little chunky in terms of storage – it takes up a lot of real estate. I am NOT keeping this in my collection.
▪️If you are interested in this palette, I would not recommend it.
