Anastasia Beverly Hills Catwalk Palette Review + Swatches + Chat

I just can't believe that this palette has joined my makeup family. As we all know, it is very very hard for us, Singaporeans, to have any (non-brow products) Anastasia Beverly Hills products. I think it is very despicable of Anastasia to put worldwide shipping in their website while they actually don't mean worldwide -___-. I remember last year I was trying to get their brow wiz and brow pomade from their website. I have registered and completed the payment, they have sent me the order confirmation. I was over the moon, and then the next day, their customer service emailed me telling that my order has been canceled because they don't ship to Singapore.
Mothafucka.
Don't get me wrong, I fucking love ABH. I love their products, they make the best brow products, and I am obsessed with Anastasia herself. I think she is amazing and Norvina is drop dead gorgeous. Back to the case, I was devastated! I was so pissed, but that time I was saved by net-a-porter. They sell ABH brow products and their shipping fee was very reasonable and their delivery was super. fucking. fast.  
And lately, I emailed ABH's customer service again, asking if they ship to Singapore (me making sure, trying to deny the reality that they don't ship to my country). Because I fucking want that cream contour kit, and the contour book, and their liquid lipsticksssszzzz. Seriously if anyone know where can I get ABH liquid lipstick (with reasonable price) please tell me!! Two days later they got back to me saying that they don't ship to Singapore. I don't know what the hell is the problem, I want to cry. Is it only Singapore, or they don't ship to the whole South East Asia? Or the whole Asia? They really shouldn't put worldwide shipping when they don't really mean it. :(
Anyway, enough with the long chat, let's go to the review.

I got this palette from a seller in Carousell. I love Carousell so much because you can find limited edition items, or items that are not available in Singapore (like this one). Smh on seller who raised the price so ridiculously. I got this palette for 50$ which I think is quite reasonable, because this palette was limited edition and as mentioned in above, it was hard to get. I don't know why would anyone sell this palette because it is gorjessss.

The palette has 10 shadows and a large mirror. The original palette came with a booklet but since this is a pre-loved palette, so. And can we talk about that brush? That brush is everything! I think it is perfect, good for packing on shadows and blending! Thank God, they didn't put that sponge eyeshadow applicator because let's be honest, we don't really like that thing, and it looks very cheap.

Downside, they didn't put the name of the shadow anywhere in the palette, maybe they did in the booklet, but it is hard to know the name. I don't have a problem but beauty gurus who make tutorials may find this a problem. I had to google the name of the shadows and here they are.

This palette was made before ABH launched their individual shadows, so the formulation may be different. And I don't know if they continue all the shadows, but I know 10K is still available now as individual shadows. As you can see from above, some shadows have more pigmentation than the others, especially for 'day rate', because if you pack that on, it will be the most gorgeous mauvy rose color. I love that this palette has mostly warm colors, so this palette is perfect for warm smoky eyes, which I love. I think this palette is better than Urban Decay's NAKED series because in this small palette you can have neutral, dark, warm, and it definitely has more 'color'.
And good news, this palette is actually still available and is on discount in ABH website. Good luck trying to ship that to your home though.
