Hello everyone! It was in February when Wet'n'Wild released their Rebel Rose collection. By the way, the reviews of it weren’t actually positive, as far as I know. Once, I was looking through a makeup store, I saw that the palettes from this collection were nicely discounted.
Now the full price - $4.99
Out of all 3 shades of the palettes, for me, I chose the one called Bed of Roses, done in the vinous-pink shades. At first, I was skeptical about it due to all those negative reviews.

Shades:
The first shade is a fair-pink shimmer:

The second shade is dark rose and it’s more like satin formula-wise, rather than shimmer. Also, it’s got a lot of small gold glitter. You can’t see them in the refill but in the swatch, they’re visible. On my eyes, these glitter bits shine brightly and vibrantly.

Texture, impressions and overall thoughts:
When I saw the swatches done with my fingertip over my hand, I could never expect anything good from this palette. I mean the shimmers were beautiful, soft and easy to pick up… As for the mattes, they didn’t impress me. Moreover, they look too muddy and gray on my hand. So, I guessed they won’t blend well on my eyes either.
But I was shocked when it all went wrong! They apply, blend and pack like a dream!
The shimmers are better to apply with fingers.
The palette doesn’t smell of anything. The shades don’t fall out or anything.
In a word, I was stunned! Especially, given the price of the item…
