Petit Pro Palette

The Petite Pro may seem small but it sure packs a big punch. :) You get 3/4 of the size of a full size shadow, so it makes it very cost effective. A excellent way to start your own love story with Viseart eye shadows. :) Just a heads up you will never be able to have just 1, as soon as you use these amazing, soft, stunning & just a dream to use eye shadows. Its like putting air on your eyes, "Highly pigmented air" all you have to do is just touch the shadow with the tip your brush.& apply. I love that it doesn't matter which palette you get you will always receive the same Viseart high quality through out. I purchased the new Warm Matte with my Petite Pro & I absolutely love all of my Viseart Palettes. I will be able to create endless amounts of different & amazing looks. :) :) Pics will never do them justice you have to see, feel & try them for yourself, you will defiantly not be disappointed!!

I have had my eye on Viseart palettes for a while but didn't wish to spend $80 to try out a brand I'd never used before. I thought the $30 price tag was closer to practical so I ordered both this years mini Viseart palettes.

The Soleil palette was a chance purchase. I liked the colors but was afraid they might he too, "young" for me. I am in my 60s. But I thought what the heck and ordered it. The colors on inspection look bright and shimmery and my apprehension grew but I decided to try them out before returning the palette.

Am I glad I did! The colors are nothing like they look or swatched on my hand. They are beautiful, light and soft, nothing harsh. Even the shimmers are finely milled and not chunky which I do not like. They are buildable so I am sure you can brighten the look up but I applied them in a wash of soft color which brightened and opened up my eye area. They shout Spring! But not in a garish way, rather in a gently youthful way. The powders are buttery and blend flawlessly without getting muddied up. They also do not accentuate my crepey eyelids but rather somehow blur the look. My husband even commented how pretty my eyes looked. He's so accustomed to seeing me in neutrals I think he was pleasantly shocked to see me in light beautiful Spring/Summer colors.

I was so pleased with my purchase that I found the previous three mini palettes I, II, and III and purchased those. I know I will not be disappointed and will have fun deciding on which colors to mix and match.

I can understand now why Viseart has such a loyal following. Add one more person to that list.

I travel a lot for work and the size of this palette is PERFECT. Though the size of the pan is super small, they seem to have almost as much product as a full-size MAC eyeshadow. The pans are fairly deep, and of course, magnetic, to it's easy to depot them and put them in your own palette, if you want. The mirror is good in a pinch, but it's kind of tiny - not warped or anything, but small.

The mattes are the traditional "to-die-for" Viseart quality, and the shimmers are a lot smoother (except the "lightest" shimmer shade, which has the most glitter in it) than the 12-pan palettes. I have all three of the Theory Palettes and this is a welcomed addition to my collected.

Thats the only thing i can say for this one. i travel with it coz its so petite and cute but trust me you do not need anything else other than this. i played with this and it creates so many looks.. just awesome.

I'm in love with this little baby. I am a huge Viseart fan and I prefer these shimmers to the ones in the large palettes. So pretty. Great mix of matte and shimmers and the shades are expertly curated to work well together. These shimmers are the same formula as the Theory palettes (which I have 2 of). I could just use this and my Viseart Neutral Mattes and never need any other eyeshadows.

I've been waiting to try visart for quit a while but the price tag often makes me jump a little, I have a massive collection of eyeshadow from every non drug store brand and indie brand out there. I'm glad they made this little one so I could at least try them out before deciding to make the big jump to the 80$ palette. The theory ones are not to pricy for me either but way to neutral for my taste, I love color and extreme shimmer. I only use neutral for transition, and crease and right under brow bone. So on to this palette, I absolutely love the shimmer shades they are super pigmented and buttery, they go on like a dream and are easy to blend, there is some fallout but a light dust with a fan brush takes care of that. They do not crease or fade and stay just as vibrant as 1st applied. The matte shades are quite nice as well the red brown shade 3rd on the top is my favorite, a great pigmented shade that applies without being chalky or streaky. I use the mattes to blend out my bottom liner and it stays just beautiful. Overall I can see the hype with the quality of these shadows, if more little palettes like this are made with color I will pick them up. I do not Depot my shadows so I took off half a star for the package. I'm glad I was finally able to try these out overall very impressed (:

I was excited to try this affordable intro to Viseart shadows, but honestly this palette was a huge letdown and I will be returning it.

PROS Creamy Pigmented Blends Well

CONS Colors become easily muddled when blended Both matte and shimmer shades dull considerably when blended Shimmer shades crease like crazy within two hours of wear The glitter shadow is not creamy and is difficult to apply

I gave this palette a fair chance. I used it for a week straight, and changed up how I was applying eye primer, which eye primer, how I was blending, which shades I used together - anything and everything to get a different result - but it was the same sad story every time.

The mattes blend like a dream, but the don't hold onto their color. Instead, they become a muddled blob of what-color-even-is-that? It ends up looking very dull. The shimmers are very bright and pigmented UNTIL you blend them, and if you don't blend them, just wait an hour or two. They fade and crease almost immediately.

Even with a low price point, I can't keep this palette. I would never use it.

The shimmers are freaking amazing. I'm quite tanned and the white works well to highlight my brows. The light brown is good, but nothing special (I have to pack it on). The dark brown is a bit tough but I can use it to fill in the little gap I have in my thick brows

Now, my main problem. The third reddish matte is as hard as a rock. I can't pick up anything with a brush or finger swatch, even with primer. It blends poorly. It's clearly much darker than all swatches I've seen so I'm guessing It's a defective dud? Yeah I get this happens with some brands, but for what I'm paying with viseart I don't think it should happen.

I attached a pic of a finger swatch of it over UD primer potion.

Look, if I couldn't find use for the last shadow I'd be even more annoyed but be careful when purchasing because this isn't worth the money because of the dud mattes. If you only want shimmers they're breathtaking!

On another note, my Minx theory is probably the best thing I've ever used - so look into that first!

Words truly can't describe how much I love this palette. The colors are truly amazing even though they look like basic neutrals. The lightest shade is such a perfect lid and brow bone shade. The taupe shade makes for a PERFECT crease shade. The plummy brown is just DIVINE great for deepening the look. The darkest brown shade is such a great liner or outer corner shade . Add in any of the shimmer shades on the bottom row and it just takes a basic look to another level. Get this palette. It's SUBLIME

Midsommer is beautiful, which is of no surprise when it comes to Viseart. I don't wear warm tones so this neutral leaning cool palette is my ideal and I bought it the day it launched on Viseart's site.

All 5 mattes are in Viseart's standard formula so they're pigmented, buildable and dry to the touch but blend like a dream. The shade Potion is a brownish plum matte with lots of gold and silver sparkle, Faerie is a beautiful pinky champagne metallic and Changeling is a stunning deep pink with a blue/teal duochrome shift. To avoid fallout, I always tap the excess off before applying the mattes and I apply all shimmers over glitter glue as I have hooded eyes.

The Petite Pro palettes, while small, are actually pretty versatile and Midsommer is no exception. It's a great day to night palette, is ideal for travel and is a perfect way to try Viseart shadows without breaking the bank. This specific palette is probably best suited for fair to medium skintones, or vampire pale like mine, and even though it has only 8 shadows, the mix of light, mid-toned and deep shades make it possible to create multiple different looks.

I'm really enjoying Midsommer and recommend it highly! **One thing to note is that Viseart changed their shimmer formula about 2 years ago to make it more intense so if you're looking for a Petite Pro with softer, less metallic shimmers, try palettes 1, 2 or 3. They can, however, be applied wet for a high shine look.
