The finishes are all the same - they're all metallic/shimmery eyeshadows, and there's 88 of them.
As you can see, it's a very warm-toned palette so I think those with neutral/cooler-toned skin would find it hard to make this palette work well for them. I also think it suits medium skin tones the best - fair skin tones would find it hard to make the deeper colours work, and dark skin tones might get a bit bored of the extensive range of champagnes/pale pinks/lilacs.
It's called Metal Mania - supposedly a wide range of metallic shades - however the focus is very much on natural shades. It's almost like an extended Naked palette... There's a lot of bronzes, browns, champagnes, peaches etc. There are a few brighter shades thrown in - the greens and blues show up much more vividly on the skin than in the pan.
The eyeshadows themselves are quite powdery and dust kicks up easily when swirled with a brush. There's a bit of fallout but it's not too bad, and they are very pigmented, smooth and blendable.
In terms of wear-time, they're not all the same. Some have been fine, even without a primer, for about 6/7 hours - minimal fading and no creasing. There's a couple of colours - notable the more "unusual" ones - green/blue/purple - that I've found crease and migrate quite easily, even with a primer.
I'm giving this palette a 7/10 - it's good if you're looking for a cheap way to add a lot more colours into your collection and if you love shimmery eyeshadows, however the quality is not always there.
