It looks so pretty and I was wondering if you guys have tried it and recommend it? Thinking of trying it out!

I love the quality of MUG shadows. I bought into the hype of this palette and bought it immediately. I really do like it, but I'm not blown away by it. Half the shades in it are not new, exclusive shades. I already owned a few of them, but bought the palette because I love Manny. Also, I don't see why everyone is raving about the shade Mars (the red one). It's kinda patchy and doesn't apply evenly. The real standout shade for me is the shimmery pink pressed shade on the top row. I think it's called Luna. That color is gorgeous! I think it's a good buy, since I only have issues with one shade :)

I definitely agree with Michelle Mars is really patchy and the pigmentation is really disappointing when compared to MUG other shadows. It's more of a pinky red than what it looks like in the pan.

I have it and love it so much! The colors are pretty and pigmented! They never apply patchy for me and blend very nicely.

What about the duochrome shade? is it just like all the other same shade duochrome?

@Alma, are you talking about Insomnia? It's the loose pigment that's already available, but it's pressed instead. It is very pretty, though :)

I have it and I feel like I'd love it a lot more if I was more into warm tones. I was also disappointed with Mars as it is a lot drier than I was expecting, but that's kinda just the nature of reds. It isn't patchy for me, but since it's mostly pigment it does stain brushes and lids easily. I really do like it, but if I'm going to be honest I wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't associated with Manny.

Michelle Yes that's the shade and thank you. I was wondering if it was just like my Too faced shadow petals to the metal(I'll post my swatch)
I also wondered if it was just like Macs shadow Club and Wet n wild duochrome in their new palette. :)

I have it and I really like it. My favorite colors are actually Mars and insomnia. Mars actually blended so beautifully and soo pigmented! These were my first shadows from MUG and I'm really happy with them. I did a look this weekend using Mars and Insomnia and they are a match made in heaven 😍 I'll post a pic to show that Mars shade which is my favorite :) and for insomnia depending on how the light is hitting the eyes it looks different.

Ms L. I think everyone that has the palette are using those two same shadow combo look together. I'm interested in looking at other combo's from that palette do you have any? Or if anyone does?

@Alma :) it's a beautiful combo! But no I haven't tried a look with the other colors yet but I will and post it :)

@Ms L. That's a gorgeous look! I really wish I didn't have difficulty with Mars. I love the look of red eyeshadows.
@Alma That color looks really similar. I also find UD's Lounge close as well :)

Buxom has a shadow that looks almost exactly like insomnia too.

Thank you Michelle! I used ABH concealer as a base and set it with RCMA colorless powder before applying the shadows.
