Natasha Denona Sunrise Eyeshadow Palette 19.25g

It is a smaller format palette–mini by the brand’s standards but more average-sized with respect to most eyeshadow palettes these days. I really hope the brand continues to release palettes in this format (I’d be happy with these over the larger 15-pans, as they retail for $129, and it is hard to finish up a single eyeshadow… period).

Most of the eyeshadows were semi-opaque to opaque in coverage, blendable, and easy to work with on my skin with eight to nine-hour wear. Aster was the most “difficult” shade in the palette, as I found it had a tendency to sheer out and had some fallout, so that’s one that I felt needed to be used with fingertips or a wet brush. The mattes were definitely the highlight in the palette–substantial without being too dense and blendable without being too powdery.

The palette launches today at Sephora, Beautylish, Selfridges, Cult Beauty, and FeelUnique.
