Kat Von D Tattoo Chronicles Candelabara Edition


Today I will be reviewing Kat Von D's Tattoo Chronicles Candelabra Edition. This palette was released for the holidays. It is designed to look like a book, just like the first Tattoo Chronicles. This time it is velvet with a red foil skull chandelier. Inside are a few pages of drawing and journal entries. After those the palette opens up to a full size mirror on one side and all the shadows on the other. This time instead of all the primers you receive a full size Sin-Full Lash Mascara in Puro Amor.

Sin-Full Lash Mascara in Puro Amor







My favorite colors in the palette are: Blackhearts, WTF, and Evil Monkey.


Six of these shades can be found in other palettes. That means that half of this palette is new and half is old. The new colors are nice but not spectacular. The shadows are smooth and pigmented, but the shades just are not as amazing as they could be. Half I already own, and out of the new ones, I am not sure how much use they will actually get. The shadows that are new, are either really dark or really light. As of right now, I would say skip this palette. I just can't get excited about this one.

You can pick this up for $49 at Sephora.

  2. I would suggest you pick it up if you like the colors. The quality is great. It seems the more I look at it the more I like it. I do not know why I didn't seem to like it at first.
