ROMAND Better Than Palette 02 Mahogany Garden

Product Description

Autumn browns are the most wearable palette family there is, and 02 is where the Secret Garden series puts them. The rom&nd better-than-palette in Mahogany Garden runs ten shades through the honey gold and warm brown spectrum, from light beige to deep umber.

The range within one palette is what makes it work. The matte shades cover light beige through to a deep brown, so you can build genuine depth without reaching for a second compact, and the glitter shades sit in copper gold and molten gold territory rather than silver or pink. rom&nd's formula uses ultra-fine particles, which is why the mattes blend without going patchy and the glitters press on with a fingertip rather than scattering.

This suits warm and neutral undertones and works across a wide range of skin tones. If your undertone runs cool, 03 Rosebud Garden or 05 Shade & Shadow Garden would suit better. Note: The palette contains talc.
