Here is a gorgeous palette I've recently acquired from a Japanese brand called Kate (owned by Kanebo).
I've heard this palette called 'deep cut eyes' and 'deep trap eyes' but the front just says 'deep eyes.' I have no idea what the back of the palette says as it's written in Japanese.The packaging is cute as ever, very sophisticated looking. My only gripe is that it is a little bit hard to get your brush into the smaller sized shadows.
The colors are very well coordinated, with 3 different shades of green and two highlighting lighter shades. I love the golden color because it adds a pop of warmth to the palette.swatches:
These shadows are very nicely pigmented and each have gorgeous shimmer in them. They look really nice and clean for a daytime neutral eye, or very sultry for a smokey green look at night.EOTD using GN-1:
For this look I used every color in the palette, and I really love the results.I would like to try more eyeshadows from Kate, I think the quality is really good.
I do believe that this palette is now discontinued but it can easily be found on Ebay for around $20.
Do you use any Japanese brands?

Beautiful palette and swatches! The look you did is amaaazingggggggg!!! SOOO gorgeous, Lexa!
Ohh:) thank you so much!
These colors look great on you!
I'm a big fan of Japanese drugstore brands such as MAJOLICA, Visee, Fasio, Integrate, Kate & Lavshuca....I'm always attracted by their cute packaging and the quality is good as well. The thing I don't like is the price+shipping is expensive, considering it's a drugstore brand.
