   I have all of the 10 pan eyeshadow palettes from wet n wild and I love them all. Although this particular color story is not my absolute favorite, I do like it. The deep brown is gorgeous, the transition shades are very nice and the shimmers are absolutely stunning. The only shades I was a bit disappointed in were the light blue (not too pigmented) and the peachy pink one (its a weird formula-matte with random pieces of glitter/sparkle). I would recommend this.

   I am in love with this cute little palette. Maybelline has a similar color scheme (I believe with the name sunset something or another) but it was around 12$ at Walgreens and I had just devastatingly lost my entire makeup/eyeshadow collection which I’ve spent near 10 years collecting and whatnot. I am crushed to say the least, but I have to pick back up somewhere and being on a limited budget after losing everything hasn’t been easy but brands like this that offer such good quality and at such a good price point really have given me so much joy. I am so happy W&W has blown up like it has because their quality surpasses their prices. this palette is everything I want for summer and then some, it’s very high quality and it even came with a very nice eyeshadow primer that I mix with my concealer to sort of make my own version of Urban Decay’s Eden and it’s phenomenal. The coral color and the warm brown right next to it (or above it if you’re looking at the pic as a comparison) is absolutely incredibly buttery and easy to diffuse and blend out. it’s not chalky whatsoever and the shimmery shades are gorgeous and of course much more pigmented than the matte/satin shades but that’s to be expected. this palette compared to a lot of MAC/Anastasia eyeshadows in my opinion and far exceeds a lot of the higher end shadows on the market.

   I’m kind of in love with this palette, and I’ve almost exclusively been using it since I bought it about 2-3 weeks ago. Wet n Wild has consistently–pleasantly–surprised me over the last couple of years with their products, and this is no exception. The only shade I haven’t used is the blue, but it’s a pretty shade, just not something I would use much.

   I love the two transition shades, but I wish the lighter one was a bit cooler toned. It looks pretty light in the pan, but it actually applies a bit darker than I expected. The darker one is a gorgeous warm brown that comes out pretty close to how it looks in the pan.

   The shimmery shades don’t produce much fall out, which I really like. I think I actually have less fall out with these than my UD palettes. The only one I don’t like much is the creamy one because it has almost no pigmentation and is kind of chalky. All the other shadows feel pretty nice and buttery soft.

   I love the gold, the pink just below it, the peachy-pink (above the blue shade), but the darker purple-y pink shade is just ok. It looks a little muddy unless applied by itself.

   I’m absolutely in love with the kind of orange-y color, though, and use it (and the peachy-pink) almost every day. I wish both had a little more pigmentation, but they’re really not bad for the price.

   I like the dark brown, but it does sheer out a bit. I actually don’t mind that because I’m very fair and dark brown shades look weird on me (black is usually ok, though, oddly enough) until blended and sheered out. I love it under my lower lashes, though, and don’t find it sheers out much when patted in and smudged out as liner.

   These shades blend pretty well, too. They’re not the best, but for the price, I’m very impressed. I think I’ve only had trouble with maybe one of them (the purple-y pink above the dark brown) because it seems to just fade away as I try to blend it. I’m not too upset by that, though, because I’m not crazy about that shade anyway. I like it, but I don’t use it much.

   Overall, I’d give this about a 3.75 star rating, and will almost certainly repurchase it because it’s become my go-to palette lately. The only time I reach for something else to use with it is for a cooler crease shade (I like more of a taupe shade there) and a brow/inner corner highlight because the lightest shade in this one just doesn’t have much color payoff. (I do sometimes use it all over my lid for minimal makeup days, though, to brighten up my eyes a bit, and it looks ok for that.)

   Good for those trying to save a buck, but not the BEST quality shadows from Wet n’ Wild. For around $5 I’d still say it’s worth checking out. Also noticed that carmine is used in the ingredients, despite it saying “cruelty free”. Hmm..

   If you’re buying it for the blue shade, forget it. The blue doesn’t have any pigmentation whatsoever. Possibly can be built up with a setting spray or shadow glue. Gold & red shimmer shades are OK, purple one (#8) was awful.. The transition and matte shades are decent. I was disappointed to note that the peach shade has tiny sparkles in it. This is my go-to palette if I want a nice warm orangey eye.

   ****Also wanted to note that I think they sent the influencers a better quality version of these palettes – when I saw Zabrena and Raachel’s swatches of these palettes I could not believe the pigmentation. My palette was nowhere NEAR the pigmentation of those palettes – so just be mindful of that when watching those reviews.
