Hello!
I've been playing around with this palette for about a month now. It's the Essential Matte & Shimmer Eyeshadow Palette by Jouer Cosmetics. You can purchase it here for $40. I purchased mine from Dermstore and used a 20% off coupon they had going on at the time.
I think it was worth it with the discount. It has a cheetah print on the front side and a mirror inside. The palette is pretty sturdy and it features fourteen eye shadows. The eyeshadows are nice, but nothing I'd sell my first born child for. Some are a little more on the powdery side. The shade "Sand" basically broke while I was doing some swatches. I can already see myself hitting pan on the shades "Cafe" and "Macchiato" soon due to the powder kick up.
The shadows included are:
Dew - Soft shimmering cream
Matte Vanilla - Matte Buttercream
Fresco - Matte Pale Pink
Sand - Shimmering Champagne Pink
Mocha - Shimmering Bronze
Macchiato - Matte Taupe
Desert - Matte Red Sand
Sepia - Matte Terracotta Brown
Cafe - Soft Shimmering Brown
Suede - Shimmering Deep Bronze
Dark Chocolate - Matte Rich Brown
Licorice - Matte Soft Black
"Sand" and "Desert" really compliment each other when it comes to creating looks. You have a good variety of colors here. I can easily make a daytime to nighttime look. They are long lasting! They held up well while I hung out till the wee hours of the night. My sister wore them to the gym and the sauna. She said they made it through all of that. I found some of them to have a dry formula like "Matte Vanilla" for example.
I really love some of the looks I created with this palette, but the powder and dryness in some shadows bother me. If you can get it at a discount, go for it!
