Sephora 'It Palette' Review

So as i mentioned in a recent blog post, i bought the 'It Palette' from Sephora whilst i was on a school trip to France. I have been using it for the past two weeks and been loving it, so i thought  i would share the colours and quality of it with you guys. 

It contains: a base eyeshadow, 2 highlight shades, 5 shimmery eyeshadows and 2 matte ones. Also, there are two powder eyeliners at the side of the palette, which have an amazing formula as the powder is not messy at all and is so simple to apply. The palette instructions even say that water can be used on the brush to apply the eyeliners for a more 'gel' effect. And finally, a brown pencil eyeliner is included which has a really soft and blendable, yet longlating texture. 

The palette also comes with a double ended brush - an all-over shadow brush on one end and an eyeliner brush on the other. One of the only complaints i can make about this palette is that the hairs on the eyeshadow brush keep falling out, and i have heard a lot of people rave about Sephora brushes so this was a bit of a let down for me. 

However, the quality of the eyeshadows is absolutely outstanding. The colour pay off is incredible and stays like that all day, even without an eye primer! (I just use a little of the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer on my eyelids instead). The only two which arent as pigmented are the highlight shades, and i have read reviews where this has been pointed out and because of this the palette was not a hit for them, whereas, to me, all i want in a shadow like this is a little shimmer as i think too much colour looks a bit over the top when highlighting certain areas of my eye, for example my brow bone. Despite this, the rest of the shadows are really amazing and i have swatched them all so that you can see. 

I will definetely be using this palette a lot in the future, and if you want to see some of the makeup looks which i have created with it just let me know! 

Oh and thank you guys for being patient for some of my blog posts these last few weeks as i have missed a couple out due to my new laptop and my trip to France, so hopefully they will all be back on track from now on! 

Bye guys!
