The first two shades on the bottom row, man oh man, they are beautiful and rich in color! I did find the shimmery and satin shades to be the most pigmented and creamy out of the bunch.Both colors needed a bit more build up in order to see a decent color pay-off. The shadows are nicely pigmented and creamy, with the exception of the first shadow and the fourth shadow in the palette.I haven’t had any problems with fall-out, although there are some shades, very few actually, that are a bit powdery.The colors are a nice neutral range with fun pops of purple and blue.It’s small and compact, perfect for on the go!

It was a steal! And thankfully…(spoiler) I love this palette!! I originally wasn’t going to purchase this palette, but after seeing a few reviews and looks on YouTube, I decided to go for it. Of the mattes, Organized AF didn’t apply as well on top of the others, so my eye looks weren’t as smoky as I wanted.Hey loves! Awhile back, BH Cosmetics held a celebratory sale for Judy, from It’s Judy Time on YouTube, congratulating her for the birth of her twin girls. In a way, I’m glad to have this formula in these particular shades because sometimes brands going for more pigmented shadows overdo it on the ultramarines and oxides (pure pigments) which are much harder to blend if the ratio is off in the formula. These mattes are on the thin side and can look patchy in swatches, but they can be built up to full opacity. In hindsight, I should have gone with the Amethyst palette. I went from expecting to love this color selection the most to rating it my least favorite of the three I bought. I also expected Confidence to lean a little more green than it does. It might have been silly of me to want more purples out of a Sapphire palette, but I saw images of this product online that led me to believe Sympathetic had more of a purple tone to it and that Sapphire was a true purple-blue duochrome rather than a blue satin-shimmer shadow with a blue and purple base. I don’t have to worry about clashing shades when I put any combination of them together. Overall, the quality in this palette is great and I am so impressed by the cohesive color story. Lastly, Hard Working is a stunning warm brown shimmer shadow. I learned the hard way that Total Package was far too sparkly to look nice as a brow highlighting shade for my tastes, but it makes an excellent inner corner and pinpoint brightening shade. They both deepen up slightly, but Restless remains olive whereas Stubborn comes off a little more brown than the red-brown shade appears in the pan. Restless didn’t swatch very well, but that shadow and Stubborn both blend easily and are opaque on the eyes. The shades Emerald and Artsy AF look quite similar on my eyes, but the main differences are that Emerald is a satin-like shimmer that is a slightly brighter green in tone, while Artsy AF has a medium-dark green base with gold and silver shimmer. Emerald and Peridot are the two green-centric palettes out of twelve, but I chose this one because these particular tones are more my speed.
