Sydney Grace Mountain Path Eyeshadow Palette Evaluation & Swatches (2022)

Mountain Path

Sydney Grace Mountain Path 9-Pan Eyeshadow Palette ($33.00 for 0.54 oz.) was initially launched as a bundle of single pan eyeshadows, and it’s once more in palette-form! I found that eight of the 9 shades have been almost nearly as good or barely improved, whereas one shade (Escape) appeared to have further shimmer and fewer of an intense, deeper base color (though performance-wise, it was nonetheless respectable). This has always been thought of one in all my favorite bundles from Sydney Grace, so I’m so glad to see it once more.
