This is my first ever purchase from Banila Co which I believe is a Korean brand. It’s a fairly expensive cosmetics brand but I thought I’d try something out from the range. This palette is about £16 retail, I paid about £23 for it from eBay including shipping.
Banila Co seem to release these palettes occasionally – I chose one called Tokyo Scandal:
I think the box is extremely cute!
Here is the lid…
I love having everything in one place, there’s 6 shades here, three pale ones and three darker ones. It’s got everything in one place.
The pigmentation of these eyeshadows is great – they’re creamy and soft, but not crumbly so there’s no fall out or sparkly bits! I’d say this is quite a grown up palette – no whacky colours here but everything is very wearable and pretty with a faint shimmer:
I really like this palette! I’ll definitely buy another Banila Co one to try out, perhaps something with more interesting colours!

Oooooh I likey…I’m a sucker for nice packaging and this one ticks all the boxes…loving the quirky illustrations! How big is it? Small enough to carry about in the handbag?
Hi Jen
DEF ok for the handbag you;d know I moan about it if it wasn’t!
Ah, memories! When I was in Korea I went a little crazy swatching their products, but didn’t buy anything at the time because I wasn’t into make up as much as I am now.
A lot of their products remind me of MAC. Their collections always include mineralized blushes, shadow duos, & the palettes like yours (& ones with 3 shadows & a blush.) I’m going to have to ask my friend to send me some!
Hi H
Banila Co seems lovely I guess a it expensive but lovely anyway! Excited about these products!
I could buy this for the packaging alone
Hi Stacie!
It’s very arty isn’t it!
