My Review:


The 'Natural' palette is a beautiful palette ranging from light to dark shades of brown. It includes one white highlight color but you can also use the lighter shade of brown below the white in the bottom row, as a highlight as well. You can create many looks with this palette, even a beautiful smokey eye! I bought this palette at my local Target store. It is a limited edition palette from the 'Silver Box' collection from e.l.f.. I liked the 'Smoky' palette so much that I had to have the natural palette as well. It was only $3.00. Like the 'Smoky' palette, you can use these shadows wet or dry. I have swatched the colors for you. In the photo's marked with an 'A' those are photo's from the top row of the palette. In the photo's marked with a 'B' those photo's are swatches of the bottom row of the palette. The shadow pigmentation is alright. The lighter colors of the palette are kind of sheer. But, the darker shadows are very pigmented. The colors blend well together! The applicator brush that comes with the palette is very small and the bristles are quite stiff. So, I would suggest that you use an eyeshadow brush. You could use your fingers to apply the eyeshadow but, I find that brushes do a much better job at applying the eyeshadow while creating a beautiful flawless look. I really like the packaging of this product. I love the sleek black case that eyeshadow comes in. The case includes a mirror underneath the lid cover located at the top. It's great for on the go, when you want to check your makeup, especially your eyes. Sometimes, my eyes get very watery when I'm out in the wind and I start to rub my eyes. I try not to if I can help it because I don't want to smear my eyeliner and get it all over my eyelid, messing up my eyeshadow. The case is a little bit tricky and/or difficult to open. Be careful not to drop the palette while trying to open the case. The case is compact. It'll easily fit into your purse for on the go and/or traveling. The eyeshadows lasted all day. Before applying the eyeshadows, I used the 'e.l.f. Eyelid Primer' in 'Sheer'. The shadows didn't crease.
