Originally know for her amazing tattoo artistry, Kat Von D created her self titled make-up brand back in 2008. On my recent visit to Sephora Sydney I stopped by the Kat Von D display and the 'Monarch' palette was the first item that made it's way into my shopping basket.
The 'Monarch' palette is one of two palettes in the Butterfly Effect
Collection by Kat Von D, this one encasing more warm toned shades. The
palette contains x9 eyeshadows, each extremely pigmented with high
colour payoff. The triple milled powder is so pigmented that the darker shades can be a bit
difficult to work with. Remember to start off with minimal product and
build your colour up. It is very easy to go overboard!

There are endless possibilities with the
colours in this palette. From neutral to dramatic there is literally
colour options for everyone and every style.
Below I have listed the names and descriptions of all 9 shadows:
Entomology (matte cream)
Telepathy (pearl gold)

Tiny Death (glitter cream)
Wrath (deep pearl orange)
Papilio
(pearl chocolate)
Summerfly (glitter gold)
Killing Jar (pearl copper)
Delaney (pearl silver)
Vanish (matte taupe)
Disintegration (pearl
brown)
Shadow Box (matte chocolate)
Deadhead (matte black)
These shadows are long wearing and contain a number of ingredients to
hydrate and protect your skin, including rose
extract and vitamins A, C, and E. They contain no Parabens, Sulfates or
Phthalates. It's great to see a brand incorporating skincare into their
make-up.
Below I have linked two Youtube videos from the Sephora channel which I thought might interest you. The first gives a really good insight to Kat's inspiration behind the palette and the second is a tutorial.
