For the price they sell at, I think the palette is a real steal. I have the neutral palette. The color selection is decent. But nothing impressive. Like if you noticed, #1 and #4 kind of look alike. But all the colors (except the white one) are quite wearable. They're pretty well pigmented (not as much as the singles though). They're really soft, and apply smoothly on the lids. Because they are so soft, they kind of crumble a little. Not enough to worry about. They don't crease and fades a little by the end of the day (after maybe 7-8 hours), but not much. With a primer, they look even better. Since a lot of the colors are quite close to my skintone, I need to use a primer to make them show, which is not a problem for me since I use a primer all the time anyways.
They have a good collection of palettes. There are, I think, about 12. I've seen swatches of the other palettes and I actually like the other ones. The Velvet Rose, Secret World, Versus, Casting Call all look quite nice. But I've noticed that some of the neutrals are repeated in most of the palettes. So, if you have a few of these palettes, you'll end up with a few copies.
The packaging is very sleek and quite sturdy. It has a good size mirror inside which is quite useful. If I were travelling, this is the palette I'd carry. It has all the colors I'd need, unless of course I have parties or functions to attend. Then, maybe the Haute Model one would help. Two of these and you're ready.
Overall, I think this is a great buy and I don't regret buying it. My only crib is that I wish there were more matte shades. Only the #6, #8 and #10 are matte, and the glitter from the others kind of transfers to the mattes. Not a good thing. I would definitely buy a few more of these. I think it's a great investment, especially for those just starting out and looking to experiment.

@anshita.. lol. maybe. still got a lot of nyx stuff left :P. i got it from cherryculture. but you can get it from joy's cosmetics on ebay. Her prices are really good, especially when you buy in multiples. I'll update with the link.
@sandhya.. ya. its more of a daily look kind of palette. Next time I use, I'll definitely remember to take pics..
I dont buy palettes becoz in the end there are only a couple of colors you will use. I perfer buying quads in the same color family. But this one looks good since all the shades are nice..
the colors aren't very pigmented, it's a pity :(
@BSD. i normally stay away from palettes as well. But this one looked really good and i love NYX. And since this is a neutral palette, i'm pretty sure i'll end up using all of them.
@Maria.. really? I've used this a couple of times and I seriously haven't faced pigmentation problems.

@bhumika..i know the similar color things isn't impressive. but it's a pretty good palette for 400 bucks.
I think I had a problem with the previous comment. So, I'll let it again :
I don't have one like yours,I only have a trio eyeshadow "Rock&Roll" and I'm very pleased with
the colours.
I like the colours from your "Champagne&Caviar" palette.
@Rotsin... I actually want to buy some of the trios. I've heard the quality is better than the palettes..
nice pick! the colors are natural and i think can blend in any skin color . thanks for visiting my blog ^^
thanks nilcha..
