In December 2019, I made some purchase from Sephora.

Here's my haul. I already reviewed Pat McGrath Labs Eye Ecstasy Eye Shadow Palette in Sublime (left) and Sephora Refresh and Prep Lip Scrubber (middle). For this post, I will review the eyeshadow palette from Natasha Denona in the top middle.

This is Natasha Denona Mini Gold Palette. Since I did a thorough review of Natasha Denona Mini Star Palette, I will base this on that.

Here's a closer look inside. There are five shadows from left to right; Lodge, Dark Sepia, D'Or, Bia, and Antheia.

Here's a closer look at one of the eyeshadows, D'Or.

Here's a swatch on my hand from left to right; Lodge, Dark Sepia, D'Or, Bia, and Antheia.

Now for the looks I created...

Look #1:

I applied D'Or on the lids and blended the crease with Lodge. I darkened the outer v with Bia.

Here's the same look at a different angle.

Here's an overall look with NYX Shine Loud High Shine Lip Color in Global Citizen on the lips.

Look #2:

I applied Lodge on the lid and D'Or in the center of the lid. I darkened the outer v with Bia. I also apologize for the hair strand. I did not noticed until I edited the picture.

Here's the same look at a different angle.

Here's an overall look with Revlon ColorStay Satin Ink in Your Majesty on the lips.

Look #3:

I applied Antheia on the lids and blended the crease with Lodge, I darkened the outer v with Dark Sepia.

Here's the same look at a different angle.

Here's an overall look with Fenty Beauty Mattemoiselle Plush Matte Lipstick in Thicc on the lips.

Now for my overall opinion... First of all, there were no noticeable scent while using. I just sniffed the product and there are no scent whatsoever. Secondly, the packaging is cute. It's small and it comes with a clear lid. You can see the shadows. Not only that if you own more than one of the mini palettes, you can distinguish them apart. With that said, it's well-made and sturdy. It's made out of thick plastic. The lid is also sturdy. You can feel a tight seal, as well as, it makes a clicking noise when you open and close the lid. I cannot see it open or break unless you are rough with the packaging. For this reason, it's travel-friendly. It's easy to throw in your purse, bag, and even your pocket. If you are not into mini-size palettes, this isn't for you. It's small but I hardly ever finish any eyeshadows. Also because of it's size, it does not come with a brush and a mirror. It's easy to hold with one hand. Third, the consistency is buttery soft. It feels so smooth in-between my fingers. It doesn't matter if it is matte or metallic. They both felt the same. It comes with two metallic colors and three mattes. With that said, it's easy to use. After the eyeshadow primer, I apply the shadows with a brush. The brush picks up the colors easily, as well as, it applies smoothly on the skin. They also blend well together. It doesn't look like one color on the lids. You can see the transition of the colors. Fourth, the colors are more on the greenish gold side. It's pretty and great for fall/winter season. Pigmentation-wise it's up there. I did not have to build the colors. The colors showed easily on the skin. Lastly, it lasted all day without creasing and smudging. Since I have dry skin, most shadows last all day on me. At the end of the day, it looked like how I first applied it. I'm glad I got this product. Because of the colors, it's not something I would use that often. I prefer the Mini Star Palette over this.

Would repurchase: Maybe.
