Stila In The Moment Palette
The Stila in the Moment Palette contains 10 different eye shadows. The palette contains only one matte eye shadow (Desire) which is almost the same shade as my skin tone which you can see in my swatches. I really like this color for touching up any mistakes I may have made on my eyes. I also like to apply it as my highlighter color when the rest of my lids are full of shimmer. The rest of the Palette contains shimmery shades.
