Kat Von D MetalMatte Eyeshadow Palette ($60.00 for 1.32 oz.) includes 22 eyeshadows in a slim–but mega-sized–cardboard palette. There are nine Metal Crush eyeshadows (each is 0.06 oz.) and 13 matte Eyeshadows (each is 0.06 oz.). I really liked that they included the Metal Crush formula into their holiday palette–most obviously because I think the formula is amazing–but it distinguishes the shimmery shades in this palette from a generic shimmer eyeshadow formula. The palette offers versatility in undertones, finishes, and overall richness as a lot of the matte eyeshadows can be used to tamp down the brightness of some of the shimmery shades. The only thing that I think felt excessive is the size; it is the largest palette I’ve come across–it measured 11.5″ across!

Worth noting is the stellar lettering job; the palette reads matte/metal depending on the direction (it flips), which I thought it was a very nice touch. The palette is also a tremendous value, even if accounting for the value of the matte eyeshadows is harder (there are no singles available), the value of the Metal Crush eyeshadows alone is almost double the price of the whole palette. I also think that regardless of a price-per-ounce valuation, $60 is a fair price given it is a mid-end brand and has 22 eyeshadows.

Overall, I was impressed by the quality, pigmentation, and application of the palette–mattes are very difficult to use without primer, so the fact that I could use the majority of them without tearing my hair out was exciting. It also has some more unique shades, some shades we’ve seen but not relentlessly, and then some workhorse shades that will help bring the palette together. It will also play nicely with other palettes and eyeshadows that you may have in your stash, too. It’s also a great way to play and try the Metal Crush formula without paying $21 a pop.

Ignite is a light-medium bluish aqua with subtle, warmer overtones and a metallic sheen. It had good pigmentation, but the consistency was noticeably chunkier and had a denser feel–it had to really be pressed and pushed into the skin to apply smoothly, so it wasn’t as blendable or as easy to use as the other Metal Crush eyeshadows in the range. The color started to crease faintly after eight hours of wear. NARS Deep End (LE, $29.00) is cooler (95% similar). Natasha Denona Flow (377M) (PiP, $29.00) is warmer (95% similar).

Tinsel is a sparkling, light-medium pewter gold with warmer undertones and a glitter finish. As you might expect, the glitter resulted in a looser, slightly chunkier texture and was the culprit of some fall out over time. For as glittery as it was, though, I think it held on and applied well, and the underlying base color was very pigmented, which helped it look better on the lid over time. It wore for nine hours with some fall out. Dior Constellation (864) #2 (LE, ) is less shimmery (90% similar). Clarins Jade #1 (PiP, ) is less shimmery, lighter (90% similar).

Glitz is a light, pinky-peach with warm undertones and a metallic sheen. The pigmentation was fantastic, while the texture was smooth, dense, and lightly creamy.

Volt is a medium, plummy purple with warmer, brown undertones and cooler, silvery shimmer. It had rich color payoff with a smooth, lightly blendable texture that was soft but creamy, so it applied well to bare skin and retained its intensity when blended. I had a bit of visible creasing after nine hours of wear with a touch of fall out (it seemed to have a few larger sparkles to it). NARS Phoebe (P, $29.00) is more shimmery, warmer (95% similar).

Synergy is a medium-dark, golden brown with warm, orange and brown undertones and a subtle, metallic sheen. It was richly pigmented with a very smooth, dense, and creamy consistency that was easy to work with. The color applied smoothly and blended out well on bare skin. This shade wore well for nine hours on me (a little longer than it did as a single). This shade is the only repromote, as it is part of the permanent range.

Flash is a bright, medium-dark gold with strong, warm undertones–very orangey–and a soft, pearly shimmer finish. The color payoff was good, but the texture was slightly thinner and drier to the touch compared to other Metal Crush shades in the palette. It still applied well, and I didn’t have any real issues working with it, but I noticed some of the shimmer pulled away from the base when I tried to blend it while the color didn’t move as much. It wore well for eight and a half hours before fading on me. Makeup Geek Gold Digger (DC, $6.00) is less shimmery (95% similar). KVD Beauty Summerfly (DC, ) is lighter (95% similar).

Velour is a bright, medium-dark blue with strong, cool undertones and a matte finish. It had good color coverage, though not fully opaque, that was buildable on the lid.

Stone is a muted, medium-dark gray with neutral-to-warm undertones and a matte finish. The color payoff was decent to good, and I felt like it was buildable to mostly opaque color on the lid, but you would need a primer to get you there, as the dustier, thinner texture made it more prone to sheering out on bare skin. The color blended out without a lot of work but required extra effort compared to really great matte formulas. I noticed fading after seven and a half hours of wear.

Ribbon is a muted, dark purple with neutral undertones and a matte finish. It had semi-opaque color payoff with a powdery texture that was finely-milled but harder to use, as it sheered out easily and was hard to layer. I would use this one with a primer, as it was much improved over one when I tried it. Without it, it’s a color that would be better suited for crease work or to darken/mute other shades. The eyeshadow started to fade after seven and a half hours. Smashbox Orchid (LE, ) is lighter (95% similar). ColourPop Echoes (PiP, $4.50) is warmer (90% similar).

Silk is a medium-dark, purple-mauve with subtle, warm undertones and a matte finish. The pigmentation was very good, but the texture was dustier and a bit thin, so it sheered out very easily on the skin and was hard to keep it opaque without a good primer underneath. It showed signs of fading after seven and a half hours of wear. Sydney Grace Labyrinth (LE, $5.25) is darker, warmer (95% similar). Viseart Grenache (PiP, ) is lighter, cooler (95% similar).

Fringe is a light-medium peach with warm, orange undertones and a matte finish. It had good color coverage paired with a lightly dusty texture that blended out easily. This shade seemed to have a stronger white base to it, so it might look chalky on some skin tones. The color wore well for seven and a half hours on me.

Feather is a soft, light-medium yellow with subtle, warm undertones and a matte finish. The color payoff was mostly opaque, but it had such a powdery, dusty texture that it sheered out so easily that I could not get it to look true-to-pan at all. Regular primer was not enough to help it bind and stay together, so I’d recommend using it with a lightly tacky or creamy base. Wet 'n' Wild A Regular at the Factory #1 (DC, $2.29) is darker, warmer (90% similar). Makeup Geek Potential (P, $9.00) is darker (90% similar).

Oak is a medium-dark, olive brown with soft, warm undertones and a matte finish. The texture was a touch firmer in the pan, but it wasn’t actually firm or difficult to get the product out of it. It had intense, opaque color payoff, and the powder applied well to bare skin. It blended out with just a little extra effort required, but it wore for eight and a half hours, which made it one of the better-wearing matte eyeshadows in the palette.

Suede is a darker beige-brown with warm undertones and a matte finish. It had good pigmentation with a lightly dusty, but was blendable, consistency that sheered out a bit when applied to bare skin. It wore well for seven and a half hours before fading on me. Guerlain Gold Palette #2 (LE, ) is lighter (95% similar). MAC Fab Accent (LE, $17.00) is lighter (95% similar).

Bone is a very light, brighter beige with a semi-matte finish. This one seemed to be more satin-like in finish, though it was still rather flat/matte on the skin unless really buffed out. The texture was silky to the touch, smooth, and blendable, but it was soft enough to kick up excess powder in the pan and fall out during application if I wasn’t careful. This is the one shade that I think could have been replaced with another shade, as there is already a very light (white) shade in the palette. This shade started to fade after seven and a half hours on me. NARS Give In Take IV (LE, $29.00) is lighter, cooler (95% similar). L'Oreal Paris Beach (P, $5.99) is lighter (95% similar).

Velvet is a muted, dark burgundy with subtle, warm undertones and a matte finish. It had semi-opaque pigmentation, while the consistency was more powdery and had a tendency to apply unevenly on bare skin. The color blended fine over a primer, but it was harder to diffuse and blend out on bare skin as it would stick to one area and not want to budge. It lasted for seven and a half hours on me. Too Faced Charming (LE, $16.00) is darker (95% similar). NARS Indes Galantes (Right) (DC, $25.00) is lighter, brighter (95% similar). LORAC Eggplant (LE, $19.00) is cooler (90% similar).
