little white truths

I've been denting this palette for over two weeks now, so it's definitely time to wrap-up this round of Project Dent and start working out which item I'm going to dent next.

As with the Too Faced palette I dented alongside this, I wasn't expecting to see much progress over a two-week period, and indeed there isn't much but I can see some.

I must have owned this palette for something like six months now, and while I have used it, I haven't used it a lot.

Problem is, I'm always panning something and so many of my products get cast aside for a good deal of the year - which is of course why I started doing Project Dent in the first place. Through this project, I can make sure that everything I own sees some good use every year.

The question is whether I love this palette as much as everyone else does, and I have to say at this point that I'm not sure I do. Yes I like the formula and yes I can see why it's a staple for many, but I personally feel that it's quite a limiting palette despite having twelve different shades.

Indeed, I find many of the shades to be interchangeable on my colouring - which could partly be because I don't wear heavy eye looks, and when you're wearing things lightly, they're more likely to look the same - but I have heard others say that this palette doesn't do enough for them so I know I'm not the only one.

Anyhoo. Here's how the left quad of my palette looked back on 15 April:
