So, to get right into it, this palette is BEAUTIFUL. It has four really pretty neutral shades, a black, a copper, a pewter and a pale nude. Aside from the black, they're all very shimmery. The black is not, but it picks up the reflective tones when mixed with the others. And each shade can be used wet or dry, which is nice.
Black: not shimmery, but reflective and a bit shiny. It gets very dark when wet but blends out to a sort of deeper grey shade. When mixed with the others, it picks up their shimmer but doesn't really keep its opacity, which is a little annoying but its no less beautiful.
Copper: SO. METALLIC. It reminds me of a less orangey version of Vice 3's Lucky. It's so pretty, and when you use it wet it gets even more opaque and beautiful.
Pewter: I used this to blend out the black a little, it's super shimmery but not a very noteworthy color, but then, I think that every palette needs one of these for blending out/giving additional depth.
Nude: shimmery but very light and sheer, so it made for a good under brow highlight for me, personally, because it gave a hint of shimmer and a base shade do blend out into.
None of these shades are actually glittery, so there was no fallout or excessive chunks of glitter floating around, so that was nice.
Actual application: the black turned sort of a deeper grey in contact with the other colors, though I applied it wet and tried to keep it as black as possible. I feel like it would have been more black had I used more or if I has used it alone for a smokey eye, I'm not sure though but will definitely be experimenting more. I love the way the copper ended up looking, I think it's a really pretty color and I like it with my eyes.
I applied the nude shade from my lash line to my brow, then applied the copper shade on the inner half of my lid, put the black, wet, on the outer half and blended out the black with the pewter shade. I also applied the black dry and blended it out with the pewter on my lower lash line.
Overall: I like this palette a lot. I can't wait to see what else I can do with it, because I think it could be really versatile and I'm pretty sure I could do some cool things with it. It's more expensive than the rest of the Charlotte Tilbury palettes, because it's the only one with the wet/dry formula, but I do think it's worth it, it's a bit easier to work with than the other two that I have (each of which have just have one shade that's a ton of glitter and not much else...disappointing).

Thanks Lauren, I'm so annoyed that the camera wouldn't pick the colors up correctly. It's not a favorite palette as of yet, because I do think I look best in colors, but I do like the way this turned out =)

It's really pretty, Taylor, if you have someone who wants to buy it for you for Christmas or if you have some extra money lying around :)

Thanks Taylor for posting. It looks really pretty what are the size of pots, I've ordered online before but then the pots where really small and I felt totally ripped off.

Looks gorgeous. I appreciate the indepth review too. I'm curious about the wet dry formula. What do you have to do to use it wet? I lhave a couple of old MAC copper and bronze pots that I adore because they are weirdly neutral. You wouldn't think something that metallic would be wearable but it totally is. I love how this look complements your coloring. I share your frustration with not black enough blacks. I have a whole unloved makeup box full of them. My HG black is the Inglot freedom matte black. Holy crap is that pigmented. It's like a gel liner or something. You just touch the brush in the palette and apply it with the lightest hand. I really want to get my hands on Sugarpill's soot and stars, which is a very pigmented black with some pretty big glitter chunks. SO GEORGEOUS.

Hey y'all, sorry, yesterday was literally the worst day ever.
Raylene, there are 2.8 grams of product total, so about.7 grams of each shade. It's not a ton of product but it's definitely not a minuscule amount either.
Jenny, to use the formula wet I just wet a brush and dip it into the shade I want to use. I'll have to check out that black, but as it is I tend to use Black Dog from the Urban Decay Black Palette when I want something ultra black :)

Oh dear. What happened? Was it your exam? Hope today is better. And thanks for the info.

My final and some things with my dad's health, plus a near miss of my plane ride home and then said plane being delayed 45 minutes because they had to remove a row of seats.
No problem, hope it's helpful to you =)
