MirabellaTrue to You Neutral Eye Makeup Palette - 18 Colors of Talc Free Eyeshadow Primer Included & Highly Pigmented Eyeshadow Palette Kit w/Matte & Shimmer Shades - Nude

Highly pigmented. Does not seem to have fallout when applying the eyeshadow to the eyelid. Works very well with a primer. The colors are good and vibrant and good for any occasion

So I’m not a huge fan of neutrals. I typically go for bright and bold colors, like purple or blue. But I appreciate neutrals because they’re always an appropriate choice for certain situations. For that reason, I like to have a couple neutral palettes in my makeup collection. This palette is beautiful! The formula is okay, but I did have a couple matte shades that were VERY patchy, hard to swatch and took A LOT of swipes to get the pigment built up. On my swatch photos, I’ve labeled all the shade names, I did NOT swatch the first pan. The one that’s called ‘Miraculous’ because it’s a cream eye primer. I swatched on clean, dry skin. No lotion, primer or sticky base. I usually swipe 2 times, but with this one I had to swipe more than twice on a lot of the matte shades. The shimmers are the stand outs for me. They’re fabulous! Swatched beautifully and they sparkle in the light. But at $50, I would’ve expected the mattes to be way better quality. Paying $50 for just shimmers isn’t worth it for me. Hopefully this review and the swatch photos help people! I’m giving it 4 stars because I really do love the shimmers, but I’m not sure I can 100% recommend this at the current price point.

Stunning pallette with striking colors. These build well and stand out solo if you prefer. They do seem to hold their color well for an all day look. It is definitely on the pricier side of things, but if you really love the colors and pigmentation than it might be worth it to you.

This comes in a nice outer product box. It’s made in Taiwan. Ingredients are listed.The palette is plain white with the name in gold. It’s plastic with clasp closure. It has a nice weight to it - not heavy, but not lightweight. Feels like it’s well made. There’s a mirror the full size of the lid.There is one shade in here (“Miraculous”) that’s just a clear kind of cream/gel shade. It says it’s a primer. I wouldn’t personally use this as a primer for eyeshadow. It doesn’t seem to dry down. Hydrate the eyelid like a moisturizer? Maybe. But not as a primer. Possibly for use as a base for shimmers to give them more impact rather than applying them wet.The shimmers in this are nice. There’s true shimmers and metallics. They pick up easily and go on smooth. Some of the true shimmers are a little flakey when picked up, but apply very smoothly on the eyes.The mattes in here seemed nice when I first swatched the palette. But, of course, swatches don’t tell the full story. I’ve had some palettes swatch amazing and perform horribly on the eyes, and some swatch horrible but perform amazing on the eyes. With this one, the mattes swatched well, but didn’t perform as well. They don’t like to build up. If you’re just using 1 or 2 mattes, they’ll work well for that. Working dark to light works best for them - apply darkest shade first, then use lighter shade. When I applied a lighter shade (like transition shade) and then tried to apply the darker shade in my outer corner, the darker shade would not stay put. It’s like it wouldn’t stick at all. But if I applied the darker shade first, then used the lighter (transition shade) to blend it out, that worked much better. Any time I wanted to build up any matte, it just wouldn’t work well. I tried it with a stickier primer, which worked, but then it wouldn’t blend at all. They also don’t last on the eyes. They start fading immediately and within a few hours the look has just gone down hill even more!Overall, the palette is okay. I think the shimmers and more metallic shades in this palette are nice. But the mattes just aren’t great. I can make them work, but it’s not easy and I have more affordable palettes that work much better. So, I can’t really recommend this. It’s okay, usable, but not great. At $50, I would have expected much better quality that’s easier to work with.

I absolutely love this pallet! The colors are so pigmented and pretty! They blend perfectly together and make color combinations almost effortless. Because they are so pigmented, a little powder goes a long way. I know the price point seems like a lot. But I will be using this pallet for forever. I love the variety of colors and the quality is definitely comparable to other professional make up brands. I’m very pleased with this product!

This is a great pallet with a good range of colors. The colors are very pigmented, but don't wear as long as some other brands I've used. It's a great product, but likely a bit overpriced.

This eyeshadow palette is so pretty!! I chose the "Buff" palette because the purples in the picture looked pretty, and boy was I right! This includes both matte and shimmer eyeshadows. I think the shimmer shadows are my favorite as I did find some of the matte ones to not be very pigmented (with one swipe anyway). It does seem to be decently buildable, and it blends nicely. They even include a great cream primer! I love the added mirror because if you live in a house with multiple people as I do, sometimes you can't use the bathroom mirror to put on makeup, so having that mirror has already helped me a few times.I find this palette to be of great quality and with that sometimes comes a higher price tag. I do find it to be a bit high, but I will say that these shades are so lovely that I would be willing to purchase them again if necessary.

So many colors to choose from that that biggest problem is figuring out which ones to use. Some of the metallics were darker than I expected and it is easy to accidentally transfer/mix the colors if you’re not careful. Pretty impressed with how long it lasts.
