Kleancolor Palette

Whoo, It's been a crazy Halloween. My grandmother's 80th birthday happened to be on that day and two days later, I finally finished off the leftovers and have gained two pounds despite exercising daily. I have officially become a schlub.

As you may know, I love to try different things, and I saw this makeup store closing at my local mall. I loved my Amuse brand palette, so I decided to pick up a similar looking palette that was on sale for around $2.50. It is the Kleancolor Double Rainbow Palette. I had high expectations, and it had the potential to be one of my favorite palette in the bunch. It came with 8 colors, 4 being in the purple family, and the others being in the neutral brown family along with two blushes.
This is the purple side along with a peach bluish with gold shimmer. The colors look different here, but I guarantee that they are all purple in color. Doesn't the second one from the left remind you of Fishnet, and the one nest to it remind you of Ransom by Urban Decay?

The other side is the more neutral side with beautifully colored neutrals along with a rosy silver speckled blush.


So how did these fair? Piss poorly. When used with a dense brush with primer, you barely get any color. I had to rub vigorously with my finger in each of the pockets in order to get the colors you see here today. The only good things are the blushes, they came out decently pigmented, but everything else was a total fail.
My hands are incredibly dry so you can clearly see the cut on my hand. Ouch. I have to start breaking you my winter creams. I hate this cold weather.
