I too bought a dupe palette, although I was aware at the time (I bought it from a market in Thailand for R40 and only an absolute fool would think it was real!. After reading through some other comments I do think I have the best view of the colours. My pots were all full and the shadows themselves are rich and super pigmented. I use the colour Dark Horse on my eyebrows and it lasts me from 7am to around 8pm. I also find that my brush is fab and there have been no bristles falling out or anything like that. The colours themselves can be used from anything from a light Spring look to a super sultry smokey-eye.
