I purchased this set for 24.68 in January of 2018. I was drawn to the colors and liked the price point, the package arrived as expected and on time.
The little black metal case is pretty cute and I find the sides, that have indents for pallet use are quite handy. The pans are plastic and held in place, in the tin, by a metal lip. Most of them fit very snuggly, but there is a little wiggle room on the ends. They come individually wrapped in plastic and paper. Once opened and placed I feel they are secure.
The kit comes with a color card, which I found useful. I also did color swatches on a larger scale on a separate paper to test the colors with 2 coats. I will say that I found 2 shades, Jordan and Cusco to be a little difficult. They are far more chalky than the others in the kit. I was searching for a kit with more browns and it was a deciding factor in picking up this one and I do wish they preformed a little smoother. All of the shades are:
Tokyo- Pinkish Red
Rome- Bloodish/Brick Red
Amsterdam- Royal Purple
Maui- Passionate Orange
Jordan- Chocolatey Brown
Cusco- Clay/Mud Brown
Dubai- Brownish Red
Jamaica- Kelly Green
Inca- Yellow Ochre
Budapest- Velvety Purple
Calgary- Eggshell White
Most of the shades are very cooperative. Spreading well and deeply pigmented. The shades I mentioned before, Jordan and Cusco are the most difficult to manipulate and I did experience a little pigment clustering with Dubai as well. I was impressed with Calgary as a white, it is very pigmented and sits well on top other colors as well as being easy to mix to lighten shades. Each shade was easily build-able, from more sheer to thick. Each shade, again with the expectation of Jordan and Dubai dried down smooth with no visible pigment clusters or chalky lines. Using the trays on the inside of the metal case I was able to easily blend colors. As a whole the collection blew me away. Very stunning shades, all a little different that what you would normally get. I would highly recommend to beginners looking to add to their basic color collections. It's almost a little Wes Anderson if you ask me! I expect to get a lot of use from the pallet and am pleased with my purchase. It's great as a stand alone, the completed picture below was completed using only this palette. It also is great in use with other, more conventional palettes to add depth and definition. Would by again/recommend.

This palette was made for me!
If you love color but also appreciate something a bit moody, this one is for you! You can mix beautiful darks and water down the pigments into reliable transparent skin tones. Love it!

Great for the Price. A Little Wes Anderson Flare.
