Coastal Scents 88 Color Makeup Palette Review. This makeup palette has highly pigmented shades, all shadows can also be applied wet for a deeper longer lasting effect. The compact case makes it easy for storing and traveling.
The case has a matte surface and measures 9" x 6.5" (23 cm x 16.5 cm) closed, The pots are Dime Size around and contain plenty of powder for many excessive uses.
The colors do not have a ton of shimmer in them if this is what you are looking for, you can always dust shimmer over top as I did in the above photo. It is nearly a 50/50 mix of matte and satin with slight shimmer....

After contemplating for the longest while whether or not to purchase this palette, i finally did , and i LOVE it. No regrets on purchasing it!
Took a while to arrive (7days), but when it did it was packaged with alot of bubble wrap to ensure that the palette wasn't damaged. Upon opening the pallet i observed none of the shadows had cracked and the condition was brand new.
The colours are highly pigmented and they blend very good. All the colours are gorgeous and with 88 different colours, your imagination can run wild.
I would highly recommend this pallet to anyone!

So I also hesitated to buy this because I had never heard of the brand and the price was WAY too good.
But I gave in and don't regret it AT ALL!
It was received quickly, very padded, no damage at all.
The colors are extremely vibrant and VERY pigmented,and a few are glittery. BE WARNED the colors are more pigmented than they look in the picture, i'm not the kind to wear some of the colors in it since I did not know just HOW pigmented they were. BUT that does not take from anything from the quality itself, the actual case and applicators aren't the best but it's very portable and functions. That's ALL that matters, and you probably HAVE applicators and or brushes laying around anyway. I know somebody commented that these are very chalky but honestly it's not as bad as she/he made it seem at all! :)
i'm a dog groomer so finding an eyeshadow that can stand up to moisture and eye rubbing...well it doesn't really exist unless you can fork over big bucks. BEING a dog groomer I cannot. Therefore this palette went above and beyond, did not crease. even when I didn't use primer,it outlasted my other shadows, and still looked amazing after 7 hours of washing and grooming pooches. This collection of colors is gorgeous and blend well! I would recommend these to anyone, and I actually plan on getting the flashier colors for my best friend!
I believe in giving credit where credit is due, and this was completely worth my money. I'll be ordering more shades from them!

Like a few other reviewers, I spent a while on deciding whether or not to buy this. I did finally after a few weeks of on and off contemplation and I couldn't be happier!! The palette is GREAT! There are SO many different colors to mix and match and experiment with, the possibilities are endless. A portion of them are shimmery, not many, but the ones that are shimmery are just as vibrant as the matte. The pigmentation is ALMOST(pretty darn close) as good as MAC for a fraction of the price. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for anyone who loves playing with lots of different shadows! The pots are about dime-sized but contain enough of the highly pigmented shadows for many, many reapplications. LOVE it!!

This product was exactly what I needed. I wanted to experiment with different colored eyeshadows and didn't want to spend very much. The eyeshadows are very vibrant and long lasting. I am so glad that I got this. :D

This is an awesome deal, the circled pigments were a bit smaller than I originally imagined but you get so much choice it is worth it. They work well with mixing medium and primer. The are very build-able and seemingly sheer with single layer application. Strong pigment and great for blending and making various tertiary colors.
