This palette currently retails for $36(www.theBalm.com)/€35(www.cloud10beauty.com) and consists of 12 neutral shades. Eight of these are shimmery and four are matte. These matte shades are Sultry, Sexy, Serious and Sleek.

 This is my first product from theBalm cosmetics, I was very pleased with the pigmentation of the shadows. Each of the shadows are buttery and creamy in texture. Another thing that's unique about this palette is that it has four light shades, four medium shades and four dark shades so you can easily create day and night looks. 

The pans are reasonably small but I don't mind because the shadows are so pigmented you don't need a lot to get a very intense colour from each. My favourite colours from the palette would be Standoffish, Sultry, Seductive and Sexy.

There was no fallout with any of these eyeshadows other than standoffish. Standoffish only had a minimal amount of fallout so that wasn't a problem.

Favourites eye combos: 1) Standoffish(all over lid), Sultry(transition), Sexy(crease)
                                      2) Seductive(all over lid), Sophisticated(crease), Sleek(outer v)
                                      3) Sassy(sheered out on lid), Selfish(crease), Serious(outer v)
Marks: 7/10
