Melt Cosmetics Impulsive 18-Pan Pressed Pigment Palette ($65.00 for 0.714 oz.) is a new palette that features 18 shades across mattes and shimmers housed in a palette that opens up like a book with each trio of eyeshadows in tiers. The palette had a lot of weight to it--more than anticipated but also much more than most palettes on the market--and the tiered nature of the trios made the palette thicker, too, so it ended up being bulky.
There are seven mattes and the rest are shimmers (and more metallic/sparkly ones at that), so it may not work for everyone's preferences. I did find that the majority of the mattes were rather warm-toned, so I didn't feel like I had all the shades I "wanted" to pair with some of those cooler-toned shimmers on the right side of the palette. The quality of most shades was good; pigmented, blendable, and long-wearing, but there were a few where fallout was more of a concern, needed to be applied with a wet brush, or mattes that took a bit of extra effort to blend out.
Sephora doesn't list the palette as limited edition, but when I tried to find out whether it was permanent or limited edition through Melt's Instagram, I wasn't seeing language in either direction, so if you've seen something said specifically otherwise, please let me know! I saw some people ask but didn't see any replies by the brand. It has the look of what you'd think is more likely to be limited edition, and their larger palettes with this pan shape have been limited edition in the past.

This year brings our most exciting partnership yet. In order to celebrate new beginnings, we created a palette inspired by us. This 18-shade palette features two sides that tells the story of Melt Cosmetics and the customers who made this dream a reality. The right side of the palette is inspired by the early years before Melt and the friendship between cofounders Lora and Dana that started it all. It showcases cool toned shimmers and holographic foils. A party on the eyes, these 9 metallic shades packed to the brim with pearl are even crazier than our boss ladies’ wildest nights. If you’ve made it to one of our Melt parties, you know what we mean. The left side of the palette features 7 dangerously bold mattes in vibrant colors and 2 vivid shimmers that were inspired by our love for unique colors, but more importantly they were inspired by our fun and fearless customers, our Melt Fam, who are unapologetically themselves, just like our boss ladies.
