I can’t seem to find the Kat Von D Star Studded Eyeshadow Book online at Sephora anymore but maybe they still have it in-stores. Anyways, for $55 USD, you get 24 eyeshadows ranging from matte to frost. The shadows are kind of powdery and not as pigmented as I hoped but it’s still a decent palette!
The lid of the book as a mirror and there’s a clear, plastic sheet that names the shadows and flips open. On the back of the book (see above) and on the clear name sheet, it splits the shadows into 6 color coordinating quads as a guide.
These shadows look highly pigmented in the palette but I wish the color payoff were better on some of these.
I don’t know what happened to my swatch of the second row but it contains:
- Platonic: a tangerine with golden shimmer
- Mandala: a dark reddish-orange
- Depeche: a bronze with metallic sheen
- Brass Knuckles: a light yellow gold
You can definitely create some fun looks with this palette. Lots of brights, neutrals, mattes, and shimmers to choose from. It’s a big palette, so I wouldn’t travel with it but I would depot a few of the ones with better color payoff and less fallout and put them in my pro makeup kit.
Is this palette worth the $55 USD – What do you think? Leave a comment below!
