Pros

I'm someone who enjoys doing natural daily makeup. I've been using the Lilibyred Mood Keyboard 09 Milky Berry Stereo Palette for a little over a month, and it's become my favorite eyeshadow palette lately, so I wanted to write a detailed review. I hope this can be helpful for those with similar skin tones or who are looking for a natural cool-toned palette. First, looking at the palette colors, they're mostly soft and bright berry pinks, strawberry milk, muted purples, and pink beiges - colors that really suit cool-toned complexions. I was worried cool-toned colors might be too intense or high in chroma, but this palette is so soft and calming, not at all ruddy or muddied, giving the face a more brightened, clean look. The 8-pan palette has a nice mix of mattes, shimmers, and glitters, so it's versatile for a simple wash of color in the morning or adding a glittery accent on important occasions. The mattes apply smoothly and have good adhesion, so even those with hooded eyes can create natural-looking dimension without any patchiness. As someone with hooded eyes, I find that if I apply the eyeshadow colors too intensely, it can look heavy, but the Milky Berry Stereo shades build up transparently, allowing me to create a soft, diffused look. The base shades (a light pink-beige) and light strawberry milk color especially melt into the skin seamlessly, making them great for all-over lid application, while the muted pink and purple shades can be blended out to create a beautiful, luminous cool-toned eye look, even for beginners. The shades all work together cohesively. The shimmers and glitters add a refined, glowing effect without being overpowering. The glitters are fine-milled, so they're comfortable for daily wear and subtly sparkle rather than being garish. I like to just use the shimmers for an everyday look and then pop the glitters on the inner corners or center of the lid for special occasions. As someone with dry skin, I'm always concerned about accentuating texture, but I haven't had any issues with this palette emphasizing dryness or kicking up excess powder.This palette has great adhesion and hardly any fallout. It applies smoothly without any patchiness, and the color doesn't fade or crease throughout the day, so I don't need to do much touch-up. As someone with hooded eyes, I was worried the shades might look too sheer, but layering the base and contour colors 2-3 times creates a natural, long-lasting dimension. The pink tones, especially, have a beautiful, luminous quality on my fair 21 shade skin that's hard to find in warmer-toned palettes, making this a great daily option for cool-toned spring/summer complexions. And for those who prefer a natural makeup look, this palette has everything you need - base, contour, accent, and glitter - all in one convenient compact. For example: Daily eye look: Apply the light pink-beige base, then use the muted purple for a soft, natural contour, topping it off with just a touch of shimmer. Amped-up look: Pop the glitter shades on the inner corners or center of the lid for a brightened, elevated effect. There's no fragrance or skin irritation, and it's comfortable for everyday wear. The formula applies well with fingers or brushes, and doesn't get patchy or clump up during touch-ups, so I can quickly complete my look even on busy mornings.
