Kat Von D True Romance Eyeshadow Palette in Saint: Swatches & Review



Kat Von D True Romance Eyeshadow Palette in Saint
The Kat Von D True Romance Eyeshadow Palette in Saint retails for $35US and $43CAN for 0.4 oz of eyeshadows products (8 pans) and a 0.028 oz Mini Puro Amor Black Autograph Pencil Eyeliner. I've lost the liner so no review on it but remember it gliding well. I've had this palette for 6 months to work with.


Product: 8 pigmented, non powdery shades. The mattes are almost buttery and the Shimmer remind me of the reformulated Urban Decay Eyeshadows. The palette is effortless to work with as not a single shade is a dude.

Colour: 
Heavens (pearlized warm creme)
Enjoy the Silence (pearlized warm beige)
<3 (soft matte pink with sparkle inlay)
Downtown (pearlized light copper)
Sunny (pearlized gold/bronze)
Pray For me (pearlized warm taupe)
Bookworm (matte brown 
with gold sparkles)
Caravaggio (dark matte brown)

All are true to pan.


Wear: My lid are not eyeshadow friendly as time and time again at the most I get 6 hours of wear even with the best shadows on there own. These where 8 hours. Not bad.


Packaging: Simple black metal tin with a snap closure and a mirror.

Compare: The Urban Decay Naked palettes retail for $60CAN for 0.6 oz of eyeshadow(12 Pans). You actually getting about the same price in terms of product value. 

There are a number of dupes also from this palette and the Naked ones.

Heavens = Virgin but is more shimmery
Enjoy the Silence = Booty Call but more shimmery
<3 = No dupe from UD but reminds me of the Inglot D.S. formula of matte colour with sparkle.
Downtown = UD Chopper
Sunny = UD Half Baked (literal dupe here of my favourite shade)
Pray For me = No dupe but reminds me of a warmer version of Mushroom
Bookworm = 
No dupe fron UD but reminds me of the Inglot D.S. formula of matte colour with Hold sparkle.

Caravaggio = No dupe in UD but Inglot has one



Daylight Swatch: Heavens, Enjoy the Silence, <3 , Downtown, Sunny, Pray For me, Bookworm, & Caravaggio

Flash Swatch: Heavens, Enjoy the Silence, <3 , Downtown, Sunny, Pray For me, Bookworm, & Caravaggio




Verdict: Definitely a keeper!

Although this could have use a matte highlighter instead of one of the dark brown shade this Kat Von D True Romance Eyeshadow Palette is perfection.
