My first Kat von D eyeshadow palette purchase and look using the colours. I love the Chrysalis for its jewel and grey tones. This palette is part of a duo release, along with the Monarch palette. The Monarch is very much suited to this seasons pantone colour. (Marsala)

Such beautiful pigmented swatches and they are full of options for looks. Unlike a usual palette with one choice of colours, is so different and breaks the mould. So perfect for travel and multiple looks.
The look
So the look that i created was using black milk as the base and transition. Then using Mezzanine for the lid shade and mixed a little Melancholia in the centre of the lid. Then i blend this upwards towards my outer V and within the crease. My outer V colour is Hybrid Moments, I take a small amount to press on the lid and outer part of my crease. Using the brush I blended this to connect the crease space with my lid. Then taking a small brush to finish the look, I use Lucid under the brow to define and blend any rough edges.
This look gives a beautiful duo-chrome effect of purple and silver. Its a beautiful look to the many i will be doing with this palette. The colours are easily blendable and so pigmented, that you dont need much at all. Fantastic palette and colours.
