The BamShell Thoughts>>>

Along with my everyday naked palette, this is one of my everyday palette because of the matte black that I use with push liner brush. The peachy silver shade is what I use for the inner corners of my eyes; but it's definitely not something I would use for my brow bone as it comes up a little it too strong or shimmery for my liking. I guess I've been too safe in choosing this palette thinking that it'll easy for me to wear and later realized that I would've just gotten the same shades in Wet n Wild Palette in greed. 

Is it worth the price? Honestly, no. But if you're someone who loves luxurious packaging or just simply love the brand, then maybe you'd say it's worth it.
