I've read a lot of bad reviews about coastal scents ye shadow pallets. Some say they're made in China and some say they aren't good quality. Anybody ordered from them? And any idea about shipping rates for Pakistan??

there was some hype in the beginning but it quickly died out. all it takes is one youtube video saying how amazing something is and everyone follows like sheep.
virtually all of the stuff on their site can be searched for in ebay and the same stuff is listed as coming from china (including brushes and brush sets).
i wouldn't waste my money on it, no matter how cheap.

i have the 88 matte palette, and i absolutely love it. i'm thinking of ordering the 88 shimmer palette too now. i didn't order the 120 palette which includes both matte and shimmery eye shadows because i feel they're repeating colors in that palette. but anyway, the quality of the eye shadows is really really good, they're very pigmented. i posted a pic of the palette in the eye makeup thread if you want to check it out

I just ordered it...will post my review once it gets here. The palette and shipping came to £18.20 which is pretty reasonable I think.

I have the manly 120 one which I bought from ebay a few months ago. It's pretty alrite. Obv when you're paying this less, the quality isn't great. The color give out is very good I have to say but they're not pressed or anything. So if I dab on some color, the excess always always falls down my eye (no matter how I tap off my brush) and then when I've to wipe it off, it is sooo highly pigmented that I always end up messing up the foundation/ powder on my face. So now, if I'm using any of their colors, I do my eyemakeup first, and face next!
You can't totally rely on the palette.. as in some of the colors are just too powdery and not pigmented, but it has some very nice blues and greens and pinks to compliment your other higher brand eye shadows
