Today I'll be doing a review of a palette that I've been lusting over for quite a while (finally bit the gun and bought it!) — the 3CE Mood Recipe Multi Eye Colour Palette!
I don't own a lot of produces from 3CE, or the beauty line of Stylenanda, but they're definitely known for trendy products in sleek packaging. The colour that I decided to go for is #OVERTAKE — it just feels like the perfect all-in-1 sort of colours with brownish/reddish neutrals and a good mix of finishes.
Packaging did strike me as oh-so-pretty with the millennial pink! Whilst I do think that the clear cover means easier view of the colours, it did feel overall a little plasticky and flimsy. The packaging is nothing much to shout about.
The eyeshadow palette itself is made up of 3 mattes, 2 satins, 2 shimmers and 1 glitter, with a good range of lighter browns to darker bronzes. I felt that the colours itself made for a great basic range — everyday casual matte browns, to smokier, glittery eye looks.
But overall... I was a little disappointed. While I wasn't expecting the buttery pigmented quality of your American eyeshadow palettes (like Anastasia or UD), it didn't feel like it matched up to the USD$38 price tag (I did think it's pretty steep for what it is). I'm still keeping this palette though, because I am absolutely in love with the matte, deep reddish brown (8) topped off with the glittery gold (7).
Honest thoughts? For the price, you'd probably do better with another.
