An uber duper hyped product - and deservingly so

When this palette came out, the internet exploded - at least concerning beauty blogs/vlogs/forums. It was everywhere, and everyone loved it. Now, I'm not the biggest makeup enthusiast. I like wearing makeup every now and then, but usually do not fall for any hypes and trends. This is particularly true for eyeshadows, as I've only recently started using them at all. Anywho, when I saw the Renaissance palette, I fell in love with it; the concept (I mean, a self-proclaimed Renaissance themed makeup item, who can resist? Not me!), the packaging, the shadow colours. It's not a cheap palette, and I thought long and hard about getting it, fearing that it would end up in a dark corner of my makeup station. Finally, I ordered it, and do not regret my decision one bit. It's probably my favourite makeup possession at the moment. The shadows blend like a dream, and it's a super versatile (and pretty) palette; you can do really neutral looks or more colourful ones, it's up to you. Probably not an essential item, as there are many similar palettes out there, but it's the only one I have in this colour family, so definitely made sense to get it. For anyone who doesn't have something similar (or for someone who does but can afford the splurge), I highly recommend this.
