When I first saw these palettes I knew I had to have them. I had purchased a travel palette by Stila before and had liked it, plus being a beach lover made me want them even more. All together there are five Stila collectible beach palettes, I currently have three and I love them! In each beach palette you get 4 eyeshadows, 1 blush and 1 bronzer / highlighter as well as a mirror and a set of instructions on how to apply the colors. I really don't have any complaints about these palettes. All of the colors are very pigmented and have good staying power, especially when used with a primer. Also there are some nice colors for both winter and summer in my opinion. Some of the shades don't show up very well on my tan summer skin however in the winter those colors will be lovely. I didn't notice any smell to any of the palettes and I also didn't have any skin or eye irritation. I think the value is wonderful for what you get and I recommend purchasing especially if you love Stila products.
