Very nice
My initial impression of this when I first opened it was actually a let down. The highlighter swatched so much darker than I had anticipated from the pictures online (Off to Costa Rica). I was actually a bit upset at first glance, but I took a deep breath and decided to give it a shot. For reference, I have light medium to medium toned skin, depending on the season, right now it is leaning more medium. The bronzer/contour portion went on really nicely. I took excess off on my hand first, then lightly stippled and buffed it in. The blush is a very pretty coral color, with a tiny bit of sparkle visible in the pan. It doesn't come off too strongly on initial application, but built up nicely. The highlighter was a surprise. I thought I would hate it, but it actually gave me a "lit from within" look. Not a blinding highlight, but it gave a subtler glow that was actually refreshing.
I got at least 3 compliments on my makeup the day I used and wore this palette. I am glad I bought it. It will make a great travel palette and the pans are actually really generously sized.
All in all, I would call this a win.
