My Thoughts: I love the colors in this palette, I think it has a nice balance of brights and neutrals. There is some fallout with some of the shades, especially Sherbert so I would make sure to tap any excess off of the brush before applying. All swatches are over bare skin.
Quality: 4/5
Value: 4/5

Overall: 17/20
Final Thoughts: I think this palette is a pretty good value for the price but you do need to be careful to avoid fallout. My favorites in the palette are Sherbert and Pacific. Do you have this palette? Any other Smashbox products you recommend?
Disclosure: Product purchased by me.
I picked this up recently with the Tokidoki quad. It reminds me slightly of a NARS multiple. I swatched it on my lips for you but it seemed a bit drying so it’s probably better served on the cheeks.
I know this is an older release but it’s new to me! I like the colors in this quad but they are a tad chalky. Enjoy!
