Summary: Wonderful Palette
Comment: Typically I don't go for palettes. Either I don't like all the colors, or you don't get a lot of eyeshadow in them, or something or another, but I could not resist the wonderful colors in this one!
It's easy to go from work to party with this palette, something I'm always looking for because I'm tired of carrying around a million little pots of eyeshadow and fifty-two eyeliner pencils in my purse, my damn purse weighs a million pounds! I also love the brushes that come with this. Not a single nasty foamy thingy on a stick to be found, rather you get actual little brush you can use to create a wide array of looks, you can even use them to apply the shadow as liner!

Summary: Great Quality Shadow!
Comment: I have both palettes in the Kat Von D line, and I really can't pick a favorite! They're both great! Since I got them, (One I ordered on release back in June)they are the only eye shadows I have picked up to put on every morning. I just don't seem to need anything else!
Some people may be a little intimidated by some of the shades in them, but when you get them and mess with them, you'd be amazed at how great they look, and how many different shades and ways to blend them you can come up with. I never got so excited to put my eye make-up on in the morning!
Besides the colors, the quality of the shadows is great. Someone mentioned on another review here about them staying on....NO clue what they're talking about! I've actually gone to the gym or been outside biking on day in the 90 degree heat, and the shadow is still on perfectly! That's on the dramatic side, but it's the honest true, so I definitely think they have great staying power.
Side note---met KVD in NYC last week, and she's a definite genuine extremely nice person, so I feel even better buying and supporting her product line. I just hope she puts more stuff out!

Summary: Let Beethoven be your inspiration
Comment: Usually I enjoy picking eye shadow colors one by one ( especially from MAC) but I'm always a sucker for Sephora's palettes from Urban Decay, Hard Candy and now Kat Von D. For the price of two separate shadows you can get eight in a gorgeous, slim compact that is ready to go anywhere. I'm guessing Kat likes Beethoven since she has his face tattooed on her torso and it lends a great name in this palette. The shades are smoldering and exotic with an old world charm.
The quality of the shadows - very silky and creamy, honestly probably one of the most luxurious eye shadows I have ever touched. They don't stay on forever but last long enough that when I look in the mirror at night, sixteen hours later, I still see most of it on. The compact itself is matte black with silver roses, very, very cute. It's also about ¼" tall and slightly longer than an iPod, I can fit it easy in my makeup bag. The brushes included are very unusual, I haven't used them yet since I like the ones I have from Sephora and MAC but they are slim and also very slipper/silky.
The colors seem harmless but are kind of unusual! Each one has a small twist, when I applied them I saw that they are engineered to be striking but still look good and not odd.
Lucifer - the name is scary I know but it's a simple matte black shadow that is usually hard to find. Great for drawing eye liner lines and for adding depth to any color. This color also comes in the other Kat Von D. palette.
Speed Blue - stunning dark mermaid blue, the deepest depths of the ocean with a silvery sheen.
Razor Gray - greenish silver, looks like molten metal, very striking.
Tequila - great for highlighting, looks like the silvery gold moon at night, bright and pearl like, shimmery but with no glitter. This color also comes in the other Kat Von D. palette.
Sinner - beautiful flat plum without too much warmth, on the cool mauve side.
Rad Purple - dark luscious purple with sparkles, great as eye liner paired with any shadow from this palette.
Leather - soft pale brown in cooler tone, looks great as a liner for a more natural look, I like how the brown is in the cool tonation, not reddish and warm like most browns. This color also comes in the other Kat Von D. palette.
Galeano - silver mauve, my favorite shade in the line up, brightens the lid with an unusual coloration, works with any eye color.
Best part about these is making up new color combinations, I like to mix and match them with my other shadows and liners from Urban Decay for striking looks. But one doesn't have to be wild to wear it, I'm not but I simply like makeup and this gives many options for diverse array of looks. It's fun!
