Promising review: “Love love love the emerald eyeshadows, they’re so pigmented. I own the electric palette too and I think as far as pigmentation and foils go this palette is better, not by much because both are great! Got so many compliments on my eyeshadow when i wore it. Only criticism is that I wish there was a darker green matte to give definition to the edges of the eyes.” Torikins28
