KatVonD Chrysalis Eyeshadow Palette is a stunner - whether you talk about the packaging or the colors inside.
The dark themed butterfly speaks smokey with a hint of softness. Its a black cardboard material with a matte finish. Yet it feels nice when you hold it. And mine was quite safe in bubble wrap when it reached me. The palette opens up with a big mirror on one side.
The eyeshadow palette consists of a total of twelve shades that range from soft beige to purple to deep navy blue. The colors have different finishes making this palette very versatile when you combine different colors.
The larger eyeshadows are highlights and can be used as a base to pop out other colors. These are 2.69 gm. each, while the smaller eyeshadows are 1.4 gm. each.
Price: $46 (http://www.katvondbeauty.com)
Kat Von D’s eyeshadow formula is nice and soft. It is easy to blend the colors but some shades do tend to sheer out. One or two colors can be a bit powdery too. With an eyeshadow primer this problem is sorted. The wear time is nice - I got a wear time of about 5 hours on my oily lids without a primer.
