"The packaging is beautiful but the product's pigmentation isn't rich enough to show up well on my skin."
"I absolutely love this palette. I have this one and defining neutrals. It's so universal. I love wearing it on my lips and cheeks. The deeper shades make for great lip liners. 10/10 recommend!"
"This is a fantastic concept. A multi-purpose face palette. Works as a lip liner eyeliner, filling in brows with a silicone brush. I initially thought the lighter shades were too light for my skin tone, but the cream part is great for a decent cut crease. Excited enough about this to get the defining neutrals palette for the additional range of colours."
"I love the colors. It takes a bit of experimenting to to get the look you want but once you do, its a fantastic palette. My only complaint is when using as a blush, finding a brush that fits the pans without dragging it through both sides of the color was a minor challenge."
"I love that everything Danessa makes is perfect, the texture is amazing! The first product I tried was the setting spray, and it's the best for my skin. And now that I have this palette, wow, it's incredible how easy it is to blend, and the shades are stunning."
"Mattes are very pigmented, and the balms have a learning curve but definitely don't try to apply too much in one swipe or it tends to clump. The balm shades dries down to a powder finish pretty quickly. If using on the lips and you want sheen will have to add a gloss above. Looking forward to more groundwork releases. Rearranged the palette to match the order that makes sense to me lightest to darkest."
"I have only used it once so far, but I am impressed! I have serious issues with my oily lids creasing and I’ve used every eyeshadow base there is. This is fantastic. The colors are gorgeous and I’m excited to try it on other areas of my face. Thank you, DMB!"
"Everything. The packaging is exquisite and luxurious. I find your products affordable. My first day at work, no kidding… i received a compliment on face. This person lnows that I am an esthetician, but nevertheless, complimented about my complexion. Wow!"
"This is a beautiful pallet. I love having the all in one especially for travel purposes."
"Absolutely gorgeous palette! I am new to DM and I decided to try this since it was on sale and I have been curious about her products. I am in love with this and so happy I bought it! I can’t wait to try everything else!!!"
