Packaging:
Housed in a slim rectangular plastic compact with a clear lid, each of the Magnif'eyes Eyeshadow Contouring Palette includes 12 shadows each weighing 1.2g. Each palette also includes two dual-ended sponge-tipped applicators. The packaging is a bit flimsy and cheap but you get what you pay for when it comes to drugstore palettes.

Formulation:
Prior to testing out these palettes, I really don't have that much experience with Rimmel shadows. Therefore, I was pretty darn surprised to find the majority of these to be nice and silky and unbelievably pigmented. The shadows are just slightly powdery as compared to higher-end products but as you can see in the swatches below, the quality is pretty impressive for a drugstore brand.

001 Keep Calm & Wear Gold: This is a more traditional nudes palette with a good mix of warm and cool shades. All the colors in this one are silky and pigmented.

002 London Nudes Calling: A more rose-toned nudes palette (think Urban Decay Naked 3), this palette features some ultra-stunning shimmers. Unfortunately, a couple of the lighter colors are a bit disappointing.

003 Grunge Glamour: With the most unconventional mix of nudes, grays, and a splash of purple, this sultry nighttime palette is again a very impressive product. With the except of a sheer pink beige, all the shadows are super pigmented and lovely.
