Sigma Paris Palette

 Hey Bloggerettes! It's been a hot minute since I last did a make up related post but I am coming back with a doozie! This post is all about the new Limited Edition Sigma Paris palette. The Paris palette was a collaboration between Sigma and a few well known Bloggers who were inspired by monuments in Paris. Very cool! It's made up of 8 eye shadows, 2 blushes, 1 highlight, an angled blush brush, and an eye shadow brush. My only complaint is the lack of a bronzer for conturing. Otherwise this is the perfect palette for day, night, every day, and travel!
The palette comes with a little pamphlet with details about the Bloggers, locations, and of course the makeup.
The sleeve, it looks like a cute little package!
The front of the palette. Mosaic details and filigree, very pretty.
The back. Ingredients and a list of the Bloggers who worked on this project. I have been a fan of XSparkage, Petrilude, and MACNC40 since I was 14 back in the LiveJournal days! Crazy, huh?
The palette is a flip top with a large mirror. The brushes have little cubbies, eye shadow brush on top, blush brush on bottom.
 Eiffel, black with rainbow sparkle. Seine, navy blue shimmer.

 Louvre, matte darkened teal. Orsay, bright teal with gold shimmer. 
 Elysees, burgundy brown shimmer. Notre Dame, brownish mauve.
Triomphe, duochrome brown to green. Versailles, champagne gold shimmer. Perfect highlight color.
Top swatches have Urban Decay Primer Potion Primer, bottom swatched Nyx Jumbo Pencil in Milk. L-R; Eiffel, Seine, Louvre, Orsay, Elysees, Notre Dame, Triomphe, Versailles.
