I've been eyeing this palette for the longest time, and whenever it went on sale, I had to get it! Processing the shipping took about 11 days (9 business days) and whenever it finally shipped out, it took 4 days to reach my address in USA. I was not charged customs, if anyone was wondering. DHL sent me a text to electronically sign for it and they left it at my front door.

This palette is the most economic out of all of 3CE's palettes because it's the one with the most shades and it's the go-to for any natural glam look. This is kinda like the ABH Modern Renaissance palette, but this has better colors suited for Asian skin. To elaborate, the tones in this palette are subtle and makes blending into yellow-toned skin look flawless, especially if you're a novice at make-up and don't want to look busted lol. American eyeshadow palettes in my opinion are very dark toned (to accommodate for the many diverse skin colors), and for me, it was difficult dealing with patchy colors because I'm not exactly an MUA. With that being said, this palette may be too ashy for my tanned or ebony sisters. I would probably recommend buying their pinky palettes if you were looking to try a 3CE palette!

Since 3CE isn't available anywhere near me, I had to rely on youtube videos to describe the quality. Some people complained about "cheap packaging", but in my opinion, it feels quite substantial and heavy, and not like cheap drugstore palettes. The shell is very sturdy, and keeps the palette from accidentally opening, which is reassuring if you travel a lot. I'm not really a hardcore critic on what companies use for compartmentalizing their eyeshadows because as long as it protects the eyeshadow, then I'm fine with whatever.

The eyeshadow itself feels very soft like advertised. It's very blend-able and there's a lot of choices. I am very inspired by 3CE models and their concept makeup, so I tend to just recreate those looks. The eyeshadows are very pigmented and I don't need to use a lot for color payoff. I'm thoroughly impressed by the quality of this palette. I literally threw away all my old eyeshadow palettes because this is the only one I need. To be honest, this eyeshadow palette makes me feel very confident in my make-up and I get compliments at work (since that's the only place I can go to b/c of the pandemic). It's just very easy to use and the colors compliment my skin so well as an Asian person.

I will definitely buy more things from 3CE now that I know that they are reliable in processing my orders diligently and my packages have arrived in perfect shape with bubble wrap.
