So, so [SEP] Love the brush but the makeup falls short. The colors seem slightly darker in the picture than in person. I'm sure this is fine for people of fairer complexions, but I am a lighter skinned African American and the darkest color doesn't really show on my skin. My skin tone is usually called caramel or toffee when I buy drug store makeup (hope that helps give a visual image for anyone wondering). Since the darkest color doesn't show much, this limits the amount of contouring I can do with this pallet alone. The other colors seem ok and this could be a good starter set for someone with a lighter complexion.
