Okay, first impressions? These little pots are TINY. Like, 'did-I-just-buy-fairy-paint?' tiny. The whole palette fits in my palm, which is hilarious because the photos made them look way bigger. Buyer beware: check those dimensions!

BUT... the shimmer is *chef's kiss*. The mica powder gives such a dreamy metallic glow—perfect for adding magic to illustrations or jazzing up DIY projects. I used them on handmade cards, and the recipients thought I’d sprinkled actual glitter (minus the mess).

Performance-wise: Super blendable! They reactivate nicely with water, though you’ll need a light touch—these aren’t for heavy coverage. Pro tip: Spray them first instead of dunking your brush to avoid muddying colors in those itsy-bitsy pans.

Downsides? Yeah, the size is a joke for the price unless you’re into micro-art. Also, mine arrived with two cracked pans (annoying but still usable). Would I repurchase? Maybe as a gift for a kid or someone who loves detail work… but I’d tape a giant 'WARNING: SMOL' sign to the box first.

Final verdict: 7/10. Gorgeous effects, questionable practicality. Pack your magnifying glass!
