No matter how many neutral eye shadows I add to my collection, there will always be room for more, that's what comes with being a neutral addict especially when they're in the form of beautiful palettes like this delightful number from Stila.
Over the last few years, Stila has become a lot more popular in the UK yet despite this, I struggled to find this palette (I couldn't find it in any stores selling Stila) then one day as I was browsing Very Exclusive, there is was and I knew I had to have it especially when I had a discount code for 30% off!
I'd say this palette is a mix of both warm and cool shades, although definitely more warm. There are 12 shadows in total 10 metallic/frost finishes and 2 matte encased in a stunning rose gold case. The texture, pigmentation and blendability is incredible, even the lightest shades have amazing payoff. They also have great longevity on the eyes before becoming a bit dull (I'd say at least 8 hours). One thing to be wary of is just how delicate these shadows are, unfortunately, when my palette arrived, the dark blue shade has shattered and gone into the other shadows luckily, I was able to salvage it.
Here's an overview of the shades:
Kitten - Champagne
Puppy - Soft Brown
Pigalle - Rusty Red
Oasis - Pale Gold
Jezebel - Copper
Barefoot - Warm Brown
Wheat - Yellowy Gold
Golightly - Bronze
Espresso - Deep Grey
Chinois - Creamy Off White
Slate - Grey
Pewter - Deep Bluey Grey
Overall, I am really enjoying using this palette, in particular, Kitten all over the lid for a simple day-to-day look. You can find this palette for £30 on Very Exclusive or why not take a look at the others in the collection: Soul, Body and Mind.
What do you think of this palette?
