I finally got some time to swatch all of the colors in this palette. I apologize if the pictures/swatches aren't that great or is hard to see the color. Some of the colors either just so light that they blended into my skin or were too stubborn to show up.
I rotated my original picture so it would be easier to tell what color the swatches are supposed to look like. Each picture are according to rows. I started from the top and worked my way down.
All of these swatches are with no flash. If you want to see another color again, please let me know and I'll re-do it.
These would work as highlights.
More light colors/yellows
Greens
Blues/Light Greens
Pinks
Purples
Red/Oranges/Nudes
Browns/More Nudes
For some reason this reminded me of the Naked Palette but I don't even own it. I guess b/c of all the Browns. Haha.
Black/Silvers/Whites
Overall, I liked most of the colors and majority of them were very pigmented. Some however did annoy me because they just didn't want to show. (Who knows, it could have just been my palette that did this). For their $10 price tag, I'd say that it's a good palette if you're starting out and do not have much makeup to work with.
Do you have this palette? If so, how do you like it?
Thanks for reading!

i see you're a navy wife.
my bf of 4yrs & 8 months is also in the military.
i know how hard it is.
i hope to talk to you more. ^_^
Ooh, great swatches! I love how the greens and blues look most. :D
@MSodapop Haha, you're welcome! Yeah, it's tough having someone in the military. I really hate it when my husband has to go away. But thank goodness for blogger b/c it seems to occupy most of my time and makes the day go by faster. =) We'll definitely be talking more hun.
@Wendy Thanks! =)
Only 10 Dollars, nice! I like the colors, but I have one 96 palette and one 120 palette...I have enough eye shadows, I think... xD
But everytime I see beautiful eyeshadows, I think "Awww, wanna have, wanna have, pleaaase"...so I have way to much shadows... oh ohhh~ (;

$10 thats crazy! the blues and greens look great.
Thanks for the comment :)
The colors look really nice! What do you think of the texture of these shadows? I have had some other ELF shadows in the past, and although I like the colors, I hated the texture of them.
That is a huge palette! And so many wonderful colors for such a low price. I've never tried ELF products before but you're making me want to :)
ooo do a fun tutorial with greens and blues--there are so many nice colors there to choose from!!
@Natalie Haha. That's how I am too! Makeup is so hard to resist!
@Toesthattwinkle! Lol. Well it was on sale. Originally the price is $20. But it might still be for $10. You should check out their website.
@Yami. For the shimmery e/s I love their textures. But for some of the matte ones they weren't that great.. =\
@Fi. Yeah, you should totally check out what they got. And the prices are great.
@Maryam. My friend actually got me into these. Check out this post:
