I am a massive fan of Essence and their eyeshadow palettes are a big reason for that. The palette is great for building a blended rose eyeshadow and I find myself reaching for this set quite often, both for day and night looks. The lighter shades do require an extra stroke or two to show the colour, but that is expected for lighter shades. I like that some of the darker colours are shimmery which is great for the evening. The palette itself fits in my make-up bag so I can carry it with me which is really convenient. I also love that I'm not left with a fine powder on my eyelashes or on my cheeks after applying, the product is fuss-free. Overall, very happy with the product

Although this product is at an excellent price point, I find that the colours aren't very pigmented, and that they are only buildable up to a point before they start to look and feel very chalky on the eyes. They are good for affordable eyeshadows, but I wont be purchasing them again.

I am an absolute essence fan!! However i was a little disappointed with this pallet - the pigment isn't great & and you have to use a primer otherwise throughout the day your eyeshadow fades and transfers onto anything you might put against it.

This is an eyeshadow palette whose purple shades DON'T give me a bruised look. It's surprisingly pigmented for the price point, I find the packaging easy to travel with and the palette relatively versatile.

Another beautiful palette from Essence.

I love their bigger palettes with the wider variety of colours... this one is beautiful, I obviously fell in love with all the gorgeous colours. Again, the pigment was not as bad as some bloggers have made it out to be. It blends very well and I can build the colour if I'd like a bit more.

My only problem is that I probably only use the first four shades most. I'm not very daring when it comes to colour on my eyes, and I wish I was because the two darker colours on the right are gorgeous! I might play around with it a bit more in winter, as these tones tend to remind me of rainy days.

I probably won't repurchase as I don't see myself finishing this palette anytime soon.
But I do need to add that I made the choice to purchase the palette because I do love Essence products, the colours were amazing and the quality great.

Hope you have better luck!

I love the essence rose palette. It's got enough matte and shimmer colours to do al complete look. The shadows are nicely blendible, and lasts long (not quite as long as other more high end pallets). You can do from a nice and natural to a smokey eye. I have the same palette in Nudes and Bronze. Really great product and affordable.

I'm absolutely in love with this palette of Essence cause i'm a nude fan and pinkish/plum shades suits me like a charm.

The pallet consist of 8 beautiful colors ranging from an almost white to a dark plum/brownish color. There are matte and shimmer colors in the pallet, of which you can once again use the lighter shimmer colors as highlighters.

This iscertainly one of my big Essences love relationships

I think that these are great for someone looking for a budget friendly eye shadow palette - the array of shades are stunning but I find them to be abit powdery for my liking. THese are super affordable and will be great for day to day use.

I absolutely love this eyeshadow palette. I cannot use these eyeshadows with a brush as I have found that it is not quite effective, especially with the lighter shades. However, when applying it with your finger they are extremely pigmented and beautiful. They do disappear into my skin after a few hours. I would personally prefer more matte shades.

This palette is named "All about Roses eyeshadow in 03 Roses " I believe there is four more palettes in this range. It comes in a clear plastic casing, which I just love because the shades are visible, which made it easier when I was purchasing my pallette.

Let me tell you about the shades, it consists of 8 shades, matte and shimmery.

From top left to right :

1. A moderately pigmented shimmery silver
2. Mauvy grey shimmery shade
3. silver brown shimmery shade
4. dark purple with brown base shimmery shade

Bottom left to right :

1. Matte nude
2. Flesh pink shimmery shade
3. Light mauve (matte)
4. Matte taupe brown

These are very pigmented shadows ,I love that there are more shimmery shades than matte ones. They are very smoothly textured and blends very well. You could use a primer but I don't because I find they last long and don't crease. There's a bit of fallout when using a brush so I use my fingers.

These are very impressive shadows from Essence, I love the take on the color mauve in this pallette, very warm and complimentimg to any skin tone.

Super impressed!
