This is a super cool palette. Love the packaging with the zip is is unlike any of UD's other palettes. It comes with a full sized super pigmented perversion eyeliner pencil, it is blacker than black and is really creamy and easy to smudge to get that perfect smokey eye, the only downside with this I find it a bit hard to sharpen at times. The palette its self is really pretty, all the shades are super pigmented and blend really easily. My fave is the shade Loaded which is a emerald green tone, and Freestyle is the perfect flesh toned blending shade. Great palette for someone who is really in to wearing a smokey eye, not really a day to day palette. But sooooo pretty

This palette is great for your classic smokey eyes look. I love that it came with the eyeliner and a mini primer potion as well. I thought the zipper design was pretty unique although the zipper on mine broke quickly so I ended up just closing it without zipping but that was okay. The only reason I gave it 4 Stars was because there is a lot of fall out on these shades and there are other pallettes that have better Smokey options!
As a fan of smoky eyes, I knew I had to get this palette. When opening, I was impressed to find a full-sized eye liner pencil as well as a look book. The look book gives step-by-step instructions on how to create a variety of looks. However, it expects you to know a bit about eyeshadow blending and application as there is only an illustration of the final image, but there are some awesome youtube vids showing how to do them. The colors themselves are highly pigmented and go on wonderfully. The colored shadows are quite dark though, and not the purple or blue hue I expected when I first saw it. These colors and pencil also have amazing staying power, especially if using the eye primer. Love this pallette!!
Tips: Be very proficient with blending before attempting! A little goes a long way.
