I'll make this a pretty quick review, since I feel that the palette only contains a couple of gems.
In order of the palette, beginning at the bottom of swatches (Happy, Grateful, Genuine, Optimistic, Inspired, Bold, Charismatic, Thoughtful)
The first three shades are pretty chalky and give only the slightest color pay-off.
The next two are mattes,Optimistic and Inspired, and they perform nicely on the eye. I really enjoy those. But Bold, a slightly shimmery deep grey-brown, has pretty terrible pigmentation.
In the next row, we have Charismatic, a warm-toned gold metallic. This is a beautiful shadow, and in fact I already have a dupe for it. It is the same exact color (and perhaps even formula) from the BH Cosmetics foil palette.
After that is Thoughtful, an strongly pigmented copper shimmer. I suspect it could also be found in the Foil palette.
Confident is a purple matte of workable quality.
Hopeful and Kind are of terrible quality and have already formed hard pan after 1-2 swatches.
So, that's it! For $6.00, I am a little disappointed. Half of the palette is decent, but half is filled with filler shades and terrible formula.
Even if you see this on clearance, I would skip. There's better stuff out there.
