Result: I was on a lookout for an alternate to the Morphe 35 U palette which is still on my wishlist. But since I didn't want to spend the hefty amount I found this little gem after some research. This palette however, I do feel is underrated because I haven't read about it much on social media. So after playing with it for quite some time, I'm finally out with my opinion. Lets roll!
The Makeup Revolution Eyes Like Angels palette contains 32 shades as stated on the packaging. After opening I was quick to notice that this palette has no matte black eye shadow. And that's a plus actually, because I have lots of black eye shadows already and this one only makes place for a different color. The palette is half the size of a notebook and quite sturdy. The exterior is glossy and prone to finger prints but that doesn't bother me. It snaps open and close and their's full size mirror inside but no applicators, which again is not a problem because, eye shadow palette applicators are usually not good quality. There's a transparent film inside with the names printed. Each shadow pan size is of a one rupee coin and smaller than one dirham. The overall quality is great because the eye shadows are highly pigmented with exception to a few. They last for very long and do not smear of smudge. The texture of some is slightly creamy whereas some of them are chalky. They blend easily and look more vibrant and beautiful when applied individually. Some of the shades did look similar to me specially the brown and highlight shades but it still is a good investment for the price. These shadows are not waterproof but won't disappear as quickly if you wash your face, but it's still better to be a little careful. Let's get into color details and I'll also mention my faves.

Black Stars (Shimmer): Is a deep gray, which is pretty close to black. It is a bit powdery though.
Silver Star (Shimmer): Is a warm gray.
Silver Star (Shimmer): Is a warm gray.
Pearl Necklace (Shimmer): That beautiful sparkly gold shade which is not very yellow and not very white. (fav)
Green Envy (Shimmer): Is the classic mermaid green and my favorite from the entire palette. I wear this alone and it looks amazing. (fav)

Emerald Night (Shimmer): Is a dazzling emerald green. (fav)

Copper Dream (Shimmer): Is your classic copper shade.
Peach Cream (Shimmer): Is a beautiful peachy nude. Also good for subtle highlight.
Lilac Shimmer (Shimmer): Is heavy on the shimmer but the color is next to white. Not a lot of lilac in there.

Bold Purple (Matte): Is actually a sheer purple. This doesn't have good pigmentation and appears chalky.
