Eyeshadow Palette: Kat Von D "Innerstellar" Palette Review

Today I present to you, Kat Von D New Limited Edition Eyeshadow Palette. Isn't it beautiful! The moment I saw this come available at Sephora for VIB and Rouge members, I immediately placed an order. 

After playing around with it a couple times, I have a few opinions formed about it and I would like to share it with you as well as swatches of each eyeshadow. 

Let's start with the swatches first:

 The palette is organized just like KVD's "Monarch" and "Chrysalis" eyeshadow palettes, in three sections of four with the highlight/all-over-lid colors being on top and are visibly larger than the other eyeshadows, which is always nice. 

You can find this at Sephora for $46.00 and this is a limited edition palette. To the touch, it feel really soft. Too bad not all the shadows performed as great with the finger when using a brush. The shadows are also infused with moisturizing components, such as, rose extract and vitamins A, C & E, so they should be perfect for those that have dry eyelids.

All these eyeshadows are brand new shadows, and they are (as a whole) definitely beautiful shadows to look at. I especially love the third and last section of the eyeshadows because they just perform beautifully on the skin and really work well together. (Here is a look I did using the colors and more, here.) I also enjoyed Orion, as well as, Darkstar.

Gravitron, is probably the most unique shadow within the palette. At fist glance, it looks like a pale, champagne pink, but is you shift it side to side, you will see that it has this beautiful duo-chrome effect to it, where it changes from champagne to pink to a light pink-purple. It is beautiful, but this is part of the trio of shadows that are difficult to work with. Graviton, Lunacy, & Astrological (the pink/purple shadows) apply on really sheer and patchy. I had to really work with the shadows to get the opacity I wanted. Using your fingers to pack on the product was a different story though, so I really recommend to use your finger, or a damp brush, or a very dense brush when using these shadows. 

The rest of the shadows (Night Crawler, Dios, & Vast) are just okay shadows for me, just simply nice. 

Do I see myself reaching for this palette everyday. No, but I did enjoy the times I used this. I hope this review was insightful! If you would like to watch my video review of this palette, click here! Please enjoy!
