About the Kat Von D Shade Light Eye Contour Palette
Transform your eyes through the art of contouring. After tapping into makeup pro secrets, Kat Von D created this first-of-its-kind eye shadow palette. It’s specially-designed for eye contouring, a groundbreaking technique once used only by beauty experts to define and enhance eyes. Master three transformative eye-contouring techniques—lift, balance, and define—with the easy-to-follow guide, created and illustrated by Kat Von D: Lift to raise outer corners and accentuate or create a crease. Define to emphasize lash lines and create depth. Balance to draw eyes either closer together or farther apart.

Kat Von D’s Pro Tips

Define and shape your eyes with neutral shades to create a well-done eye makeup design.
Try placing the deeper shades where you want to see the most lift or definition, and use the lighter shades to soften and diffuse.
To complement your neutral eye design, try adding a soft tone in your brows from the palette for added volume and fullness.
Use shades from the color quad that best complements your skintone for a natural look, or use shadows from another quad to create more subtle or dramatic looks.

The Shade Light Eye Contour palette has 9 eyeshadows that are .04 each and 3 that are .08 each for a total of .60 oz of product. A typical Urban Decay eyeshadow is .05 for $18. 12 eyeshadows, which would be .60 oz, would cost you $218. So while not UD, I still think this is an excellent value for the price.

I also bought the Shade Light Eye Contour Brush, which is dual ended. It has a tapered end for defining and a domed end for blending. Unfortunately it’s currently out of stock at Sephora.

I have a love hate thing with the packaging. I love the black packaging. I hate that the names of the colors aren’t printed on the palette beneath the shades. I like that it’s easily portable.

I love the versatility of this palette because in addition to using it on your eyes, you can use it to contour your cheeks or fill in your brows.

The only color in the palette that I’m not really crazy about is Shax the black, because it’s not as pigmented as I’d like. I like the colors overall and think it’s a very useful matte neutral palette. I love pairing neutrals with brights but sometimes it can be hard to find the right neutral shades and this palette covers them all.

I love the pigmentation and blendability of the eyeshadows. They’re easy to apply and blend. With the exception of Shax, I think they all have excellent pigmentation. On primer they last all day for me.
