CLIO's palettes are excellent. The soft, fluffy powder texture applies even the lighter shades, and the shimmer, glitter, and matte shades don't flake off or fade over time. The colors are just as vibrant as they appear, allowing you to create the eye makeup look you envision. I've seen reviews that say the color payoff is weak, but every palette I've used applies the color well, so I've never felt like the color payoff was weak.
