Packaging & Product!
Packaged very simply, with all four shadows and base visible from the top, I like how you can see all the colors through the lid. You're getting over 4 grams of product for four shadows and a cream base which is decent considering how slowly we finish eyeshadows!
This eyeshadow layout is particularly neat as it goes from a dark to a light shade hence the name 'gradical'. All the shades are heavily pigmented and when swatched have a beautiful metallic, frost type finish which does not completely show up on the eyes for certain shades.
On the eyes, the dark brown and taupe shade have a soft matte/satin type finish whereas the lighter shades are as seen on the swatches. The shadows blend very well with each other and the colors have been well coordinated in this small useful palette.

| Swatches of Kate gradical eyes quad in GY-1. My favorite is the second shade, it doesn't seem like it would be so taupe until its on the eyes or swatched! |
 |
| Using the second 'medium' shade in the palette, the taupe all over my lid! |
 |
| Adding the 'deep' color on the outer V, before blending out! |
 |
| Using the 'light' shade on the inner corner! A slick of eyeliner and mascara! |

ReplyDeletethe palette so pretty! love that shimmer! look good on you too!=)
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of this brand before but I quite like these neutral shades in this palette. The colour payoff looks great and I quite like the first shade. I would not believe that the second shade looks taupe on the eyes- it looks very much like silver in your swatch! Good luck with your assessment next week, I'm sure you'll do great :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great product and Kate products are of great quality. I'm a new follower of your blog and I'd love it if you follow my blog as well:D
