I am fortunate to work with Borghese. I grew up wanting to try their products. For that reason, I am stoke to receive these products!

I took this picture from my Instagram. Unfortunately, I couldn't use the moisturizer. It has a certain SPF ingredients I'm allergic to. I gave it to my friend. For this post, I will review the eyeshadow palette.

Thoughts: When I saw the colors in the palette, I knew it was my colors. For that reason, I was excited to play with the goody.
Here's how the palette looks open. It comes with a mirror which is great for travelling. This palette is small enough to fit into your bag.
Here's a look at the eyeshadows. It comes with highlighter color and different textures; matte to metallic.
Here's a closer look at one of the eyeshadows, Torch.
Here's a swatch of the first two colors from the left to right on my hand; Wisp and Kindle.
The last three eyeshadows from left to right on my hand; Stoke, Sear, and Torch.

Now for the looks I did...
Look #1:
I used Torch on the lid and blended out with Stoke on the crease and outer V.
Here's an overall look. I have L'Oreal Colour Riche La Lacque in Lacque-Y Charm on the lips.

Look #2:
 I have Kindle on the lid and blended out with Stoke on the crease and outer V.
Here's an overall look. I have Kat Von D Mi Vida Loca Remix Studded Kiss Lip Set in Wolvesmouth on the lip and MustaeV Maxi Volume Mascara.

Look #3:
I have Kindle on the lid, Torch on the crease, Stoke on the crease and outer V, and Sear on the outer V.
Here's the same look at a different angle. I thought it shows more especially on the outer V.
Here's an overall look. I have Kat Von D Mi Viva Loca Remix Studded Kiss Lip Set in Gold Blooded on the lip.

Now for my overall opinion... First of all, the palette is small enough to carry with you everywhere. You can put it in your bag. If you want, you can even put it in the pocket of your pants. Not only that, the packaging is made out of cardboard like Stila cosmetics. It won't crack or break if you drop it. Also, it comes in a magnetic closing and it's extremely sturdy. Secondly, I like how versatile the colors are. You can wear it all matte, shiny, or even mix the textures. You don't need any other palettes. It's extremely versatile. It covers from the lid to highlight below the eyebrows. Also, you can also wear it light during the day. Then you can smoke it out for night out. With that said, the eyeshadows are not that powdery. There are loose powders but that comes with all eyeshadows. It's not all over the place. Third, the colors blend well together. It's not one of those palettes the mixture of shadows that blend well and make it look like one color on the eyes. You can see the different colors but look great together. Lastly, it lasted all day on me and did not smudge or crease.

Pros:
* Small, cardboard packaging.
* Sturdy, magnetic closure.
* Comes with a mirror.
* Travel-friendly.
* Versatile textures; matte to metallic.
* Versatile colors; light to dark.
* Everything in one palette.
* Not powdery.
* Easy to apply.
* Blends well.
* Does not crease.
* Does not smudge.
* Long lasting.

Cons:
* Hard to find in stores.

Would repurchase: Yes.
