In the same Kohl's order as I mentioned in the last post, I also purchased two palettes. Here is the one I prefer, in Flowerific. The palette is limited edition but it features eyeshadows from their permanent line so you can find them sold singly.
L-R: Gold Envy, Golden Lady, Solid Gold, Cocoa Luster
I prefer this palette because it features neutral colors in the gold and brown families. The first color in the palette is Gold Envy (#43), an opalescent white with yellow-gold sheen. I think Gold Envy might be considered duo-chrome? The next color is Golden Lady (#38), a shimmery medium brown with yellow undertones that comes off looking bronze. Third is Solid Gold (#37), a shimmery gold shade. Finally, there is Cocoa Luster (#56), a dark cocoa brown with very slight shimmer.

The shadows themselves are surprisingly nice. They are very smooth, creamy, and pigmented, especially the shimmery ones. I found Cocoa Luster to be the most difficult to swatch. It felt the driest of the four shades and was a little splotchy against my hand. However, I don't recall having any problems with it during actual application. Perhaps it is because I used it for definition of the outer corner so I didn't need too much blending.
This palette retailed for $14.99. Its total net weight is .28 oz, which comes out to 0.07 oz per eyeshadow. Full size eyeshadows by Flirt! come in packages of 0.07 oz for $12 each. That means this palette is a great deal since so you are getting four full-size shadows for just a little more than the price of one!
Overall, I would highly recommend these eyeshadows. They're good products for a great price, and I think the shades are universal. I can't find the palette on the Kohl's website anymore but as I have mentioned, these shades can be found individually. I would recommend looking for the palette since it is a much better deal than buying the full-size products on their own.
