This is my first Coastal Scents purchase and I will be buying more. I ordered these through Amazon and they arrived quickly as usual. The Palette contains colors for any occasion, work, going out, holidays it is wonderful. It has a large mirror so you can use that mirror to apply, also on either side of the mirror are dual tip applicators. I suppose they could of given a few more, but I use brushes to apply my eye make up any way so it was not big deal. In this kit you receive both matte and glittery shades, there seem to be more of the glittery colors. I have created numerous looks for days at work and for going out. I just love the shadows they go on very nicely, the colors are vibrant and they really last (using a shadow primer base). It was so inexpensive I am going to try another palette with different shades. This a great buy for your money, no more hunting through different eye shadow cases to find that perfect shade it is all in one place now!

These are such great eyeshadows, heavily pigmented and they have a great variety of shades. Though this is a "warm" set it would be better described as neutral. They include not just the warm shades but the silver and black neutrals as well. Tossing in a few fun greens, blues and purples this makes for a great kit!

I really love this palette....worth the investment..you will need to use a good base b/c they tend to crease...but on the up side they are highly pigmented...great range of warm colors...you can create fierce smokey eyes...green...plum..brown....etc...you can also create awesome "regular" looks as well..this is a must have for your makeup collection especially if you love smokey eyes or warm colors...

First of all, unlike a lot of wishful thinkers, I was not expecting to receive 88 MAC-quality eyeshadows for just $24.95. These shadows are neither high-end nor low quality, and they performed exactly as I expected them to. My favorite thing about this palette is the amazing variety of shadows. When most people think of "warm" colors, they automatically invision deep browns, tans, and other neutrals. But the Coastal Scents 88 Warm palette includes a lot more than just this tiny piece of the spectrum. There are some very nice plums, peaches, and rose shadows, in addition to some beautiful silver, shimmery blue, gray, and gold tones. There is also a very unique deep olive color that looks gorgeous on the lid or in the crease. And if you are more partial to the traditional warm/neutral shades, this palette contains a great number of brown and cream colored shadows as well. It is hard to find a shade that you don't absolutely love. The palette has *about* an equal number of matte to shimmery shadows, so if you do not have just one finish that you are partial to, this is the palette for you. When it comes to blendability and staying power, these shadows perform just like the high-end (or at least the HIGHER end) shadows when used with a primer. I can do my makeup in the morning, go to work, and still have my shadow look perfect by the end of the day. My only complaint with this palette is the pigmentation of some of the lighter colors. These shades really have to be packed onto to your eye to have any effect, and the application often goes on very chalky. This just cheapens the look of your makeup, and no woman wants that to happen. But overall, I give this palette a four-star rating, as you do get your moneys worth.

Negative: I knew the palette would obviously be compacted because the price/size, but each one is literally smaller than a dime. That's not what bothers me, though. The quality to me is pretty crappy, it doesn't stay on my brush unless I cake it on..and I have relatively pale skin. Not sure what I expected, but my friend got me a Forever21 palette and that had better quality.. I was also disappointed, because the browns are literally too close for comfort to me, they definitely over did it on the same tone of brown.

Positives: This palette really made me happy and caught my eye because I only like to wear colored makeup if I'm going out or if I'm really in the mood to do it good. This has all natural/warm colors that go with pretty much an outfit. The smokey eye can be achieved using pretty much any of these combined. The price is awesome, I'm used to buying outrageous things from Sephora so this was a nice break.


OVERALL I gave it a three out of five because it wasn't that horrible. I use it if I'm in a rush for school and want to do a quick smokey eye or if I'm going out and want low-key makeup. The star below it was a "I don't like it", and that not necessarily the case. Just a tad disappointing from all the hype.

Very Disappointed! I opened my palette and immediately noticed it was FAKE.
I watched a YouTube video tutorial on the 88 Warm Palette, and out of every color the woman used, only ONE of mine matched up!! Then I noticed the inside of the case was different than hers
-the REAL 88 Warm Palette from Coastal Scents is a shiny black on the inside, in the middle of the palette has four pans that touch each other with no black barrier.
I thought, okay, maybe they have a few similar "Warm Palettes" and I just didn't order the right one. So I went and looked on the Coastal Scents website and there is only ONE 88 Warm Palette, which is NOT the one on here. It is the SAME EXACT picture as the one on CS website, but it is NOT the same palette.
If you want this palette, or any other makeup product for that matter, you're better off just ordering from their website or buying the real thing in stores. Too many scams on here!!

DON'T BUY THIS!
This is not the real Coastal Scents 88 warm pallette! If you look on the coastal scents website the packaging is much different and they have claimed that these are fake! I made the mistake of buying them! DO NOT BUY! Go to the Coastal Scents website to buy! CoastalScents.com!

This palette is great! the shadows are the size of a dime if you want a better idea of what you're getting, so they're very small, but there are man colors alike so if you run out of your favorite, i guess you can use one that is very close to it for some more time. The colors are very nice, all of them, and i like how it has some metallic and some matte shades. I have used it for a couple weeks now and it's very good. I use an eye-shadow base (Estee Lauder) so they stay on my skin the whole day long. I read other reviews that said that it runs off but i guess that those people were not using a base. it's definitely worth the money. shipping was good too, came fast and in very good condition.

I love this palette. It has a beautiful collection of neutral wearable shades. I read that these don't show up well on darker skin tones but they are very deep and vibrant on my lids and I am a deep brown black woman! So don't be afraid to get this palette based on those reviews. Always use a shadow base beneath any shadow and these are no exception. Enjoy.

After all the hype, I expected more from this product. The packaging looked cheap and tacky and the half the colors look more cool toned than the swatches shone on online pictures. The pigmentation is good but you'll need a good base for the colors to stay on longer than 2 hours. Overall, it's okay but if I would have known it would only be something I used maybe once a month, I wouldn't not have spent $25 on this.
