Mystery Review Monday No. 1

Hi lovelies! Today I wanted to share this highly requested review of the new Kat Von D Chrysalis Eyeshadow Palette with you. I have been playing around with it for the past few months and can honestly say that it's GREAT quality however, there are a few unfortunate cons that I wanted to touch on. For my full review please check out this video then scroll down for detailed photos!


Please click the images to see even MORE detail!




Shade Descriptions from Sephora's Site:

Lifelike (matte cream), Lunar Lights (pearl gray), Lucid (sparkle rose), Hybrid Moments (matte deep purple), Mezzanine (sparkle violet), Transition (pearl mauve), Glasswing (matte caramel), Melancholia (pearl silver), Black Milk (matte gray), Graphic Nature (pearl charcoal), Entombed (pearl blue), Tornay (matte navy).


(swatched WITHOUT primer)

Extra Information:

- In the video I accidentally mention that there are only 3 matte shades but there are actually 5 in total!

- While swatching these I did notice a bit of inconsistency with the feel of the shadows. The majority of them are that lovely silky smooth texture which is very opaque and pigmented in one swipe. However Lucid, Entombed, and Tornay are a bit harder to work with and can feel a bit chalky.

- I think my favorite shade out of this palette is Melancholia!

I hope you enjoyed today's review and make sure to comment below with your guess for the next Mystery Review Monday! What do you think about this palette?

Love, Lacey
