There’s a nice spread of colours in this palette making it good for day and night looks. There’s a few that didn’t swatch well but work much better on the eye.

Green Machine for example swatched badly but does work well on the eye. I say well, it needs building as some of the others do. So it depends on what you’re looking for if you like that. I do, depending on the situation. The advantage of buildable shades is you’re less likely to make mistakes but of course, that takes more time.

Overall I like it, although it’s by far my favourite palette from Revolution. It’s quite a muted palette, so if you’re into those tones and don’t mind the odd shade that needs a little building you’ll like this.
