My Thoughts
This palette have 35 eyeshaodws and have white and silver card board packaging which is not travel friendly. It looks beautiful but a mirror would have been better with this large palette. There are no eye shadows name printed under shadows or above plastic sheets, neither they are mentioned behind the palette. Shades are combination of matte, shimmer, frost, foil and glitter finish and have quite collection of neutral to vibrant shades. Most of the shades have warm tones and few leans toward cool tones. With light to dark colors you can get almost all the necessary shades in this palette excluding some mauve and greys. Lets talk about each shade separately and their quality.

First row
Enlight: Warm light nude shade with metallic finish. This shade have good pigmentation and butter smooth formula which is easy to blend.
Beam: Slightly lighter then Enlight and is a yellow shimmery color. It would have been better to add matte nude shade instead of it. The pigmentation and formula is very good.

Overall most of the shades have buttery smooth formula with very good pigmentation which are easy to blend and lasts pretty long on their own. As usual the shimmery shades are most pigmented and creamy then mattes. Shimmery shades are best applied with hands or Sigma E55 brush for better application while with matte shades you need bit effort specially which have bit dry texture. It is not highly desirable if you have these shades already but considering your requirement you can either buy or leave it but if you are makeup junkie and want to decide between this palette and UD Naked heat, i would say this is better. It have almost all the shades of Naked heat and then more while the price is better as well.
