Let me start by saying this little palette surprised me! The #03 shade combo is like a cheat code for fresh-faced makeup. That dusky rose blush? Chef's kiss – it blends like a dream and gives that 'just came in from the cold' flush.
The shimmer highlighter needs a light hand (seriously, dip your brush once and tap off excess), but when applied right, it gives this gorgeous candlelit glow. I've used it on cheekbones, inner eye corners, even dabbed a bit on my collarbones before date night.
Now the not-so-perfect bits: The bronzer shade leans orangey – I use it more as an eyeshadow than contour. Also, while the packaging is cute, several reviewers mentioned lids breaking (mine's still intact after 2 months in my purse though).
Pro tip: These powders perform best with synthetic brushes. The formula lasts through my 10-hour workdays (office + gym commute), though oily skin folks might need midday touch-ups. At this price point? Definitely repurchasing – already eyeing shade #08 for summer!
