Have you seen this palette in the drugstore? It's beautiful and peachy but I wasn't sure what to think of it. Drugstore shadows can be hit or miss, and this palette is priced around 20$ in Canada. While it is an affordable palette, I was really hoping that it would be satisfactory. I picked it up on sale, which was a plus. I had read some positive reviews on the palette and thought it would be fun to try. It really fit in well with summer and wanting a lighter look. The L'Oreal Paris 'Paradise collection' also includes a pink tinted eyelash primer, a high shine black and a rose gold eyeliner as well as four blushes. At some point, I would like to explore this collection and test some of the other products. The rose gold eyeliner has peaked my interest.
This palette has 12 shades, a mix of matte and shimmer with a nice variation in shades. I was surprised by how silky smooth these shadows felt when I swatched them. They performed really well, no issues with blending or pigmentation and the lasting power was good. While these shadows are not the most pigmented shadows that I own, they stand up fine on their own and will allow you to create beautiful looks.
It's been mentioned that this palette is peach scented, but I don't really smell anything when I use mine. The pan sizes are a bit small, and the mattes do have some kickup if that bothers you. Overall, I think this is a great every day palette. It would be a nice palette to travel with when you're looking for a neutral look. Looking at my swatches, I would say it performs better than the swatches look. I would rate this palette a B and encourage you to pick it up, especially if it's on sale. The drugstore has been uping their game, and I'm looking forward to trying more eyeshadows palettes.
Pretty palette, but I have enough warm shadows to last me a century!
