MAC Cool Neutrals Palette || REVIEW

 I am so happy to finally own this MAC Cool Neutral Eyeshadow Palette. I have wanted it for ages and the other day I finally decided to buy it. These were so hard to get hold of when they were originally released, there is also a warm neutral palette. It's constantly sold out on the MAC website so I was so happy to be able to grab the last one that Fenwick had in stock while I was shopping.
 I got so carried about photographing this so I have tried to include as many of the photos as I can. I am just so over excited about this palette, its amazing! I choose the cool toned palette mainly because I prefer these colours and I don't already own any of these, but I think that the warm toned palette is slightly more popular because of the shadows it contains like Amber Lights and Brule. This is priced at £65 for 15 shadows, this is amazing for MAC seeing as their pre made 4 pan palettes are around £30 and if you were to buy this all separately it would be around £170 and when I bought it Fenwick had a 10% so overall this is an amazing deal and one I couldn't possibly miss.
 
Row 1: Flounce, Sweet Allure, Sun Tweaked, After Dusk, Blackberry
Row 2: Pick Me Up, Cozy Grey, Crushed Clove, Depection, Brun
Row 3:  Silver Fog, French Clay, Pearled Earth, Black Tied
 
Admittedly when I first saw the palette I was a bit unsure of some of the colours but just from looking from it you can see how many of the colours would work together to create so many different looks. The lady in the shop also told me that on each row the last 3 eyeshadows work together to create a perfect look each which I think is so good.
The one thing about this palette is that it isn't like the other palettes where you can remove the pans and replace them so once you've finished one then its finished... I'm sure someone will find a way round this but for the moment that's how it is.
I know this hasn't been the most in detailed review, partly because I haven't had time to use all the colours so if you do want a more in depth review then please leave a comment and I will do that. Overall I am so happy that I finally own this palette and its in pride of place in my makeup collection.
What's your favourite MAC eyeshadow? Have you tried this palette?
