Recently Chloe Morello announced her collaboration with Ciate London - the Pretty, Fun & Fearless Beauty Haul Makeup Set (which retails for AUD$70). I had never tried anything from Ciate, I understood them to be a nail polish company and had not even tried their polish, but I am a big fan of Chloe Morello and knew I had to have her collaboration, especially after having watched her swatch video.
Basically, this beauty haul is a selection of hand-picked (by Chloe) products by Ciate. Chloe selected a number of existing shades that she adores and are obviously best-sellers for Ciate, together with a number of shadows that she had the pleasure of curating. It also includes a best-selling mascara and liquid lipstick that really compliment the shades of the palette itself.

The palette is gorgeous, deep purple, shiny, thin & travel friendly and has 15 shades enclosed with a magnetic-close function. It comes with a mini liquid lipstick, a mini womderwand mascara and is housed in a beautiful rose gold, deep purple/navy makeup bag!
The mascara is the Wonderwand Mascara in Black Magic, it is not too wet and not too dry and coats your lashes evenly, leaving them blackest black and full of volume. I usually apply two different mascaras to my lashes to get a really full effect, but this mascara is perfect for every day as I only need to use two coats to really volumize my lashes.
The liquid lipstick is the "Liquid Velvet Moisturising Matte Liquid Lipstick" in Pin Up which is a soft, nude pink. This does not dry matte, and does not last as long as your typical liquid lipstick. It does however last longer than your typical lipstick. It is very moisturising and does feel velvety which is where the name comes from. If you can push past the 'matte' part, this is a lip product I think compliments the palette very well.

There are fifteen shades in the palette, and this is absolutely a warm-lovers' palette dream! The colours are extremely warm with soft browns, deep browns, light purples and deep purples with beautiful shimmer shades. The colours all compliment each other and if you watch Chloe Morello as much as I do, you'll know this palette absolutely screams her! I will list the colours below with some swatches of them as well.
Skinny Dip - light brown matte
Unconditional - soft terracotta matte
On Fire - burnt brown matte
Queen Bee - deep chocolate brown matte
Shine Bright - bronze/brown shimmer
Vaycay - golden shimmer
My Tribe - linen matte
Be Sassy - soft pink matte
Jet Setter - light rose/mauve matte
Happy - deep taupe shimmer
Dainty - pale peachy shimmer
Fierce - cranberry shimmer
Flirt - cranberry matte
Day Dream - deep wine matte
Own It - deep purple shimmer
The shadows themselves are very pigmented, quite comparable to the Too Faced Original Chocolate Bar Palette (which is my all time favourite palette) and are very buttery. They blend into each other extremely well and have a great staying power, even with my oily eyelids. You can make a tonne of different looks using this palette and it is perfect for travel as it is so slim and well packaged.
