PR Sample: I was sent Covergirl's Trunaked Chocoholic Eyeshadow Palette ($9.99 - $12.99)(Walgreens, Target) for review. The Trunaked palettes have been around since 2016. The Chocoholic palette was released this year. You receive 8 shades with this palette. It's a mix of browns, purples, black, beige and green. When I swatched these, I felt they were just ok. They came off powdery. I even added Smashbox primer to the back of my hand to help them out. As we all know, sometimes shadows apply better than when swatched. I went for a purple look in my photos below. There are two purples. A matte & shimmer shade. These were better when applied to the lid of my eyes. However, I did experience some fall out. While applying the two purple shades to my lids, I felt something was missing. There's no transition color to work with or a shade to sprinkle your inner corner eye with in this palette. I would have to use another palette. So I went into my makeup vault, added Covergirl's Star Wars Nude Lipstick (70) and mascara to complete my look. The theme for this palette is suppose to be CHOCOLATE! The palette does give you about four brown shades (if you include the off white shade), but it should have encompassed more. There should've been 8 shades of brown in this palette and some shimmer shades. Purple and green eyeshadows are SUPER HOT right now! But I feel Covergirl tried to cram everything into this one palette. The green eyeshadow will go with the brown shades, but the two purples are not connecting with the other shades. So with the quality and color selection, I give this a Bittersweet rating. It's just ok in my opinion. Does it smell like chocolate? The scent is very light.
