Review & Swatches: ColourPop Golden State of Mind shadow palette

ColourPop released the Golden State of Mind shadow palette about a month ago and I immediately felt in love with it while I saw the pictures online. They are ALL SHIMMER, very glittery, very neutral, the whole palette is just too pretty to look at!! The palette retails for USD26.00 on both Sephora.com and Colourpop.com. Some people say it's overpriced but I think $26 is justifiable although it's not cheap to me.

Now let's look at swatches of the shadow:

Top row, from left to right: Golden Egg, Pay the Piper, Grlfrnd, Zero Clue, Watch Out

Middle row, from left to right: Drizzle, Uptight, Can't Stop, Sparkler, Unsupervised

Bottom row, from left to right: Lust in Time, Mind Tricks, Wing Woman, Heads or Tales, Tinker Time

The shadows do not feel buttery n creamy. They feel rough when I swatched them, but they are very pigmented and I didn't even have to build up the colours to get the pigmentation as shown in the pictures above. And I must say that they look gorgeous on the eyes. The shadows are also very long-lasting even without primer.

Overall Rating: 9 out of 10

1 point is deducted coz of the size of the palette. I thought it'd be bigger but in person it's lil bigger than the size of my hand.
