What the gurus are saying

Gurus consistently praise the palette's buttery, blendable formulas and distinctive mauve-cool undertone that sets it apart from typical taupe palettes. The standout shimmer shades and creamy textures earn high marks. A recurring note: despite the grunge aesthetic, the palette works for soft, everyday looks, not just smokey eyes. The main hesitation is price parity with luxury competitors like Natasha Denona, making it feel more niche than essential, plus occasional fallout from glittery shades.

"It seems like something I will really enjoy. This retails for $60. It has a little protective layer on it and a mirror with lettering, which is cool. The inside has a lot of different textures in here. You've got mostly mattes, you've got some metallics, and also it looks like some topper shades as well. I am excited. There's a matte black in here and then a black cream, which is interesting. It's kind of cool that if you cover up half the palette you get kind of a nighttime color story, and then if you go this way it's a little bit lighter and more daytime. I don't know if they did that on purpose or not, but that's just what I'm seeing."

"This is blending very very beautifully. I actually love how this is a mostly cool tone palette but this shade specifically might be the most warm toned which I think is nice to have at least one in here just in case you want to round out those cool tones with a little hint of warmth so that it doesn't look completely lifeless. It's nice to have one warm toned neutral to kind of do that for you. The Stand Up shade looks like a really nice taupey bronze color. This is more of a satin shade versus a metallic. It's really really soft, really really buttery too as I'm putting my finger in the palette. It's super pretty."

"I feel like this is a very soft, peachy, super chic, very easy wearable everyday look using this palette. I'm actually surprised at how soft this is considering most of these shades are pretty intense, which I'm excited to dip into for the next look. If you were on the fence about this palette because you didn't want to do a smokey eye every day, I feel like you don't have to do a smokey eye. In fact, there's a lot of different lighter softer matte tones that you could do any sort of daytime look with."

"I'm so drawn to this bottom shade in the palette, it's called Rebel, and wow, this is like a molten chrome. This is such a cool formula and this color, especially blended into those kind of lavender grungy purples, so pretty. I'm really into the purples in this palette. I definitely would suggest to do the eyes before the face with this palette because of all these glittery textures. Some of the fallout just gets kind of lodged in there, so definitely a palette you want to do your eyes with first if you're going more glam."

"These types of looks are definitely what makes this palette shine. The color all over my lid, the rebel, oh my gosh I'm obsessed with it. I feel like every palette needs like a hero shade and that to me is exactly what this is. I love that this leans more cool-toned mauve, not necessarily just taupe. Otherwise you'd be feeling like the Natasha Denona Glam palette, which I love by the way, but I love how this has a little bit of mauve, like a lot of mauve actually. Then you have your warm tones, there's a little bit of everything. If you're into cool tones, if you're into specifically like more mauve-leaning cool tones, I think you would be obsessed with this palette. I'm not sure how much I'm going to use this cream black shadow, that's just not something that I normally use. But Huda Beauty palettes have such stunning metallics and things that make it worth it for me to have the palette. I'm honestly a big fan of this. I feel like this is such a vibe and I don't feel like I have a palette that does quite this undertone. I have a lot of cool-toned colors and palettes but I love how this is more of that mauve."

That's just me personally, but sometimes that's the case with Huda Beauty palettes where there's one or two of their more innovative formulas that I never use, but then they have such stunning metallics and things that make it worth it for me to have the palette. I'm honestly a big fan of this. I don't feel like I have a palette that does quite this undertone. I have a lot of cool-toned colors in palettes, but I love how this is more of that mauve cool tone. The shimmer color is just divine. It's so pretty. You can go for a super natural, everyday look with this palette, and you can amp it up too. I really enjoyed playing with this palette. I think it's a really nice color story overall."

I think it's a really nice color story overall. I feel like if it was not sent to me in PR, I probably would have bought this just because it seems to be something that I would enjoy with the cool tones, and now that it's on my eyes I really do feel like it lived up to my personal expectations, which is great."

"That shimmer color is just divine, it's so pretty, and I love that you can go for a super natural everyday look with this palette too. Don't be scared that you'll only be able to wear a smokey eye with this palette, you definitely can create something super soft and everyday appropriate and then you can amp it up with things like this. I'm obsessed. I really enjoyed playing with this palette. I think it's a really nice color story overall. I feel like if it was not sent to me in PR, I probably would have bought this just because it seems to be something that I would enjoy with the cool tones, and now that it's on my eyes, I really do feel like it lived up to my personal expectations. $69 though is pricey, and that's as much as the Natasha Denona palette, so for me this isn't like an everyday staple. This is definitely an addition where the Mario Ethereal Eyes is like absolutely a need and also I need a nude palette from Natasha Denona, those types of palettes I feel like you reach for every day all year. This is like a little bit more of a niche palette in that sense, where maybe you wouldn't need it on a daily basis, but you know I'm just speaking for myself. Maybe there's somebody who loves to wear these tones every single day, and if you do you can definitely create everyday looks with it. Overall, really happy with this palette."

"I love palettes with creams in, like the Patrick Ta ones that have these creams in. The shimmer shades feel really soft, like buttery almost. This feels really soft. Really, really nice. There's a really creamy black here called Grunge that I want to use on my lid. If this is a sign that grungy looks are coming back, then listen, I'm all good for that. My inner old emo is very happy."
