rom&nd Better Than Palette 102g (02 Mahogany Garden) | Eye Makeup Palette, Matte & Shimmer Eye Shadow, Sparkling Glittery, various 10 shades, Long Lasting, High Pigme

I am a very pale girly. I often have to purchase the lightest shade of foundation available in any line, and my undertone is somewhere between cool and pink. Because of this, eyeshadow palettes containing nudes/neutral tones often end up looking a little darker and warmer on me. I have a pretty extensive collection of eyeshadows because I'm a makeup hoarder, (although not nearly to the extent that a lot of beauty gurus are) and, while going through my palettes, I realized that just about all of my neutrals were on the warmer side. I have really been wanting to go for a look that mimics real shadow on the skin/runs cooler. I knew I wanted all mattes because of that, and I had been gifted that mini Urban Decay Basics palette with all mattes years ago, but found it dry and chalky and ended up discarding it. I've been looking on Ulta and Sephora for a cool-toned palette, but all of the palettes I'd found were either too expensive, had shimmers that I knew I wouldn't use, or had a weird color story. When I saw the picture for the Fog Garden palette, I knew that it was EXACTLY what I wanted. Versatile, straightforward, and perfect for everyday use. I initially was unsure about how pigmented this would be because I know a lot of Asian beauty trends prefer simplicity and subtlety over some of the more dramatic trends in America and other Western countries, but after reading the reviews, I was assured that that wouldn't be an issue. Honestly, this purchase has definitely made me eager to try more Korean brands, especially since they often cater to paler skin (which can obviously be problematic for darker-skinned consumers, and I do hope some of the Asian beauty brands expand the color range of their base makeup so their products are more accessible).The quality of this product in particular is wonderful; they are buttery soft shadows that blend smoothly and are plenty pigmented. They blend into each other beautifully, and the color story of Fog Garden is perfect for taking a subtle look and making it more dramatic. It's especially good as a companion palette to an all-shimmers/glitter/colorful shades palette, as a lot of these shades are perfect as transitions and good for layering.Overall, I am wholly in love with this palette, and would definitely recommend it.

The Mise Rom&nd Better Than Eye Palette in 00 Light and Glitter Garden has quickly become one of my all-time favorite beauty products, and I can't recommend it enough! Every time I wear it, I get tons of compliments on how stunning my eyes look. The colors are vibrant, and the glitter is absolutely gorgeous without being overwhelming or too much for everyday wear.One of the best things about this palette is that the glitter doesn’t fall under your eyes throughout the day, which is a common issue with many glitter shadows. It stays in place perfectly, adding just the right amount of sparkle. And when it’s time to remove it, it comes off easily with micellar water, no scrubbing required.The versatility of this palette is another huge plus for me. I even use the shades on my cheeks and under my eyes for a bright, dewy look, and it blends beautifully! I usually apply the shadows with my fingers, and a little goes a long way. The colors are rich and pigmented, giving me the exact look I want every time.I can't emphasize enough how much I love this palette! Whether you're using it for a soft everyday look or a more dramatic, glittery style, it's a great addition to any makeup collection. It’s beautiful, easy to work with, and long-lasting—an absolute must-have

I got the Mahogany Garden. They shipped quickly and in perfect condition.The Mahogany Garden palette looks exactly like the sample photos online: 4 glittery and 6 muted colors. They are a true neutral, not very pigmented but give a soft color payout that looks good on my warm pale/light medium complexion. However, there is fallout (which is common for the "natural" looking KBeauty makeup brands). I had to tap my brush to make sure none of the excess fell into me eye. I wouldn't recommend putting a lot of the large glitter flakes on your eye because they're huge and its very easy for it fall if you don't use any eyeshadow primer. A few large glitter flakes fell onto my cheek while I was applying it on my upper eyelid, so keep in mind of that. The regular tiny flaked shimmers are fine.They were easy to apply and blend. They give a smooth finish that clings for long hours. I've had mine last all day from afternoon to late night without using eyeshadow primer. And it comes off easily with makeup wipes too. Great for everyday wear or makeup beginners who want to start with a natural "no makeup" makeup look.Aside from that, they travel very well. I've been carrying it as my travel eyeshadow while away from home, and they're still in great condition. Here's a photo of what the palette looks like after one use.

It did the job. I've seen others say it's dry, but I personally found it to be very soft even after having it for months. I think the impression of it looking dry or ashy can come from the fact that it's very light minimalist shades. It's best used to accentuate the natural pink/coral tones in your face, it won't blend out for a big striking color all over the lid. It's a similar consistency to a blush powder. I have medium toned skin and it's buildable, the pigment is not crazy but it is noticeable. The shades are a nice range to add subtle dimension, so it's of course more suited to douyin or softer/natural makeup than like the 2016 bold looks. I enjoy that it includes the dark brown so I can use it as subtle eyeliner, or even to add shadow to other parts of the face like a cool-toned contour. Whether or not you use cool or warm-toned makeup, I've seen the palettes be used on dark skin and it still gives the natural cute look as long as you place it correctly. Overall it's a great product if you understand the type of style it's meant for.

Super pretty! My most used palette lately. I have fair skin and it's suuuuper pigmented but buildable! There's not a single shade in here that doesn't look great on me I love it!
