These eyeshadow fall under 5 finishes matte, satin, pearl, Shimmer and metallic. The 6 mattes are consistent in colour though slightly sheer they are build-able as well.

The 2 satin shades are very consistent in colour and application.

OTHER COMPARISONS
Yaby pp008 Tangerine Mist, Inglot AMC Shine 09, and Inglot AMC Shine 07

#7 and Inglot AMC Shine 07 are very similar in the pearl finish and shade.

#13 (burgandy) and #17 (berry) I could not find a match in standard eyeshadows because these shade in a matte formula are very rare. The only one I could think of is MAC's Deep Damson which is a touch lighter and redder to #13 and MAC's Fig. 1 which sheerer and paler then #17.


Verdict:
I rally surprised how much I like this palette, There a nice range of cool neutrals, peaches, and berry shades to giver you a range of look. Bounce on the Venus dupe as it my favourite highlighter!


NOTE
I asked Coastal Scents directly about matches in there own line of hot pots but they made these shade custom for the palette.
Thank you for your inquiry. The shades found in all finished Coastal Scents palettes are custom to those products. Unless a diagram or list is provided in the product's description, we do not cross-reference palette shades to each other or to Hot Pots. This applies, as well, to concealer pots, palettes and quads.

    1. Yes I reviewed the first Revealed Palette here.

      Both I feel are equally good. It's a matter of personal taste/need. The first Revealed has both neutral and taupe shades compared to the rosy tones in Revealed 2.
