As a professional MUA and beauty educator, Natasha Denona provides potential buyers with tons of online inspiration. The brand posts many step-by-step guides on how to recreate editorial-inspired looks.
The Natasha Denona Sunrise palette promises to provide wearers with shadows that emulate the warm glow of a morning sunrise. Each shade in the palette is new to the Natasha Denona family and promises to be created with the highest-quality ingredients.
The Sunrise Palette* comes in a sleek, pinkish-red compact. The outer packaging is high-shine with a mirrored effect that smudges easily. Inside, the Sunrise Palette comes with a large mirror. Also, unlike her larger palettes, the shade names are all clearly labeled within the Sunrise palette.
Thankfully, Natasha Denona is Cruelty-Free, meaning that this palette was not tested on animals. However, this palette is NOT Vegan. A number of shades in the Sunset Palette contain Carmine.
Although swatches are not a perfect indicator of quality, they can provide clues to how an eyeshadow may perform in terms of pigmentation and blend-ability. I swatched the Sunrise Palette on a bare forearm with my finger.
The metallic and duo-chrome shadows apply best with a finger. However, these textures apply well with a stiff flat brush. Personally, I prefer to use a flat brush to apply my shadows whenever possible. Brushes are neater and allow for better precision.
Without a doubt, Aster is my favorite shade in the palette. Aster is the truest duo-chrome. In other words, this shade has the most vibrant and noticeable color shift. In comparison, the shift in Awakening and Azalea are subtle.
