Marc Jacobs Style Eye-Con No.7 The Lolita

Id heard about the Marc Jacobs Style Eye-Con No.7 eyeshadow palette in The Lolita for a long time but as they don't sell Marc Jacobs make up in the UK I had to wait until my trip over there.  I purchased this eyeshadow palette back in March from Sephora and I was really excited to start playing with it. 

Firstly the packaging is pure luxury.  The eyeshadow palette itself is super sleek and it comes in a smart pouch which I will no doubt eventually use for something else.  

This palette contains seven good sized shadows and I really like that the mirror is as big as the palette too.  I generally don't use the mirrors with products but it's handy for it to be a decent size if I do need to.

I have to say however, these shadows are beautiful but are not quite the quality I was expecting.  I truly believe that Urban Decay do the best quality of shadows in both the texture as well as the pigment and unfortunately these don't quite live up to that.  Perhaps I've been a bit spoilt with Naked 1 and Naked 2 (Naked 3 was a bit of a let down and closer to this level of quality) but they don't really compare for me.

That aside, I'm still happy I bought it and I will use it but I would choose my Urban Decay Naked 1 palette over this im afraid.
