The pigment is super fine and silky and easy to use for beginners....super easy to use. not super pigmented but can be built up. shadows give a blown out look. the only shade i’m confused about is the pink “shimmer” in the middle row. it’s not very shiny and performs more like a satin. the primer is surprisingly good for being in a palette, i usually hate them. it will get dirty quickly so i’ll stick to my usual primer but this would be convenient for travel and for beginners who may not have their go-to eye primer yet. overall, love this.
