It's not just pictures of silly butterfly ladies and roses. It has blushes and directions on how to create looks with the palette. Unlike the Books of Shadows, the pop-up section in this palette actually serves some purpose. I don't know why this pop-up format is so popular lately, it's cute for about two minutes but then it just becomes useless and cumbersome *cough*UrbanDecayBookOfShadows*cough*. The front cover opens like a book revealing the blush and bronzer, some goofy pop-up pin-up fairies and a little slip with some instructional cards with examples of looks you can create with the palette. It's covered in opalescent glitter, flowers, fairies, pink pine trees and all sorts of other whimsical bullshit. Really cute design- tacky, yes, but in a totally awesome way. The whole palette is about the same size and thickness as a paperback novel, not too huge, but definitely not flimsy. I can easily say this has been one of my best makeup purchases. It contained a full sized Shadow Insurance, a full sized Glamour Gloss, and a bunch of shadows (including Label Whore which I'd been dying to try) and blushes for only $49 so onto my wishlist it went! As soon as I saw this palette I knew I had to get it. In the meantime I had tried a couple other primers I had samples of and none of them even compared to Shadow Insurance. I'd been rationing my last few drops of Too Faced Shadow Insurance while waiting for the sale so I could get a little discount. ![]() ![]() I didn't get much from the Sephora Friends and Family sale this year, but the few things I picked up were definitely winners!
