Overall Thoughts:
The Physicians Formula's Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Extreme Shimmer Shadow and Liner 2016 Collection comes in six different palette shades. There are six different shadows in the palette that are meant to be divided into two trios. Each trio will give you a different eye look. There is a description on the back of the cardboard box it comes in that explains to you how the shadows should be applied to the eye which in theory sounds great. I just would not recommend using these shadows all over the eye lid in conjunction with one another. I also do not recommend using these dry or with the angled sponge tip applicator that comes with the palette because this will give you a chunky/creasy look. Don't get me wrong I do love the pops of color because they are extremely pigmented when used wet with MAC fix plus and packed on to the lid. I do wish there was a matte shade included in each of the trios for a more complete look because then I would recommend this to be part of your travel makeup bag. The Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Extreme Shimmer Shadow and Liner in 6633 Bronze Nude has a great everyday range of neutrals with a random pop of aqua which I personally don't mind since it is my favorite color. You can take your look from day time to night time with a versatile of different looks. The texture of the eyeshadow is not a power but would not consider it a gel or liquid. The shadows do apply smoothly and are lightweight.There was no scent detected.
Repurchase: Yes only if on sale but only cause I feel like I have a lot of shadows in my collection that are very similar
