From my frd side I write this this is a cute palate for everyday office use but she really wish Lakme came up with more pigmented eye shadow palete. She mean at least what they can do is come up with a basic eye shadow palette which has all nice basic shades in our everyday use colours. She honestly not a big fan of the 9 to 5 packaging and thats the reason shewant to buy this one. By your swatches, she will take what you have the gold palate looks better than the silver one for me. She can wear blue pigments only once in a blue moon but the colours in the gold palate are very wearable for working ladies like herself
