Review: Kat Von D Star Studded Eyeshadow Book

Hi loves! I'm late with this review, but I still wanted to share, because its my first palette from Kat Von D and its their Star Studded Eyeshadow Book (24x1.4 g). And maybe somewhere its still available.

In this palette you can find 24 beautiful shadows. It comes in cardboard packaging, which feels nice and I do like it. Inside there is also a big mirror. I love the style and the packaging of the palette :)

As you can see from the picture below the color selection is awesome :) What made me buy it was that I get my nude and mattes shades, but also some color as well. It came out as part of the Christmas collection, but for me it doesn't have the traditional Christmas collection feel to it. I guess that's one of the reason why I'm posting this review this late.

Overall quality of the shadows is amazing! Its my first palette from the brand, so I didn't have any expectations. Some of the shadows are better then others, but that you'll find out down below ;) Its easy to work with them and they do blend out nicely and also they didn't crease on me (I always use a, eye shadow primer). The staying on power is nice and the pigmentation is great too! I absolutely love everything about this palette and it was a great first palette. But now lets look what shadows are in it :)

Solar - is a light beige shade, which does have shimmer in it when you see it in the pan, but it looks more with a satin finish when used.
Nephilim - is a gorgeous shimmery nude bronze shade.
Damned - is a matte bone color shade and perfect to highlight the brow bone.
Division - is a shimmery grayish olive green shade.
Platonic - is one of my favorite shades in the palette. In the pan it looks light orange, but it has golden green sheen to it.
Mandala - is a matte bright orange shade. I haven't yet used it in a look, but one of these days I'll use it :)
Depeche - is darker shimmery bronze shade then Nephilim.
Brass Knuckles - is a shimmery gold shade. I would like it to have more pigmentation.

Anti-Star - is a white silvery shimmery shade and it looks gorgeous in the inner corner of the eye.
Estrella - is darker shimmery blue shadow.
Banshee - is a very light pinkish white matte shadow.
Violator - is light lilac shadow with bit of shimmer in it.
Black Star - is super shimmery black shade. Perfect for smokey eye <3
Starflyer - is a vivid matte blue shade and the pigmentation is gorgeous!
Gothica - is glittery purple shadow and the pigmentation is not good with this one :( Also I don't like the formula of it.
Fascination Street - looks gorgeous purple shade in the pan, very vivid. As you can see in the picture above the pigmentation is not good :(

Moz - is matte light creamy beige shade.
Heaven Knows - is a light shimmery brown shadow.
Crosses - is a light shimmery shade.
Covenant - is a dark shimmery chocolate brown shadow.
Smiths - is shimmery orange bronze shade.
Leather - is matte dark brown shadow.
Craft - is very shimmery dark green shadow.
Cult - is lime green shimmery shadow.

Overall I think its an amazing palette. I'm having a issue with only 2 shadows and I can see myself use all the other shades. Its great value for the money. I'm in love with it and can't wait to try some of the other products from the brand :)
