Based on this review alone: buy it if you care about silky and smooth formula — just accept skinny matte shade is difficult to access with a brush.
The reviewer concluded that the Prada Mahogany palette offers a unique color story within her collection, providing a gorgeous mahogany tone that avoids looking too red or sickly. She praised the formula as superb, silky smooth, buildable, and free of patchiness or fallout, recommending it for those who are drawn to this specific color story.
This review provides a detailed look at the new Prada Dimensions Palette in B03 Mahogany. The creator unboxes the palette, provides swatches of all four shades, and then demonstrates its versatility by creating two distinct eye makeup looks. The review also includes comparisons with other palettes to assess its uniqueness.
The Prada Dimensions Palette in B03 Mahogany is a highly recommended eyeshadow quad for its exceptional, silky-smooth formula and versatile color story. The metallic shade glides on beautifully without emphasizing lid texture, and even the initially intimidating lightest shade works harmoniously with the deeper tones. However, the skinny matte shade can be slightly challenging to access with a brush due to the palette's layout. If you seek a luxurious, buildable eyeshadow palette with rich, warm tones that avoid excessive redness, this palette is an excellent choice, excelling at creating both subtle and deepened eye looks.

The reviewer compares the Prada palette to Victoria Beckham Orchid, Dior Backstage Smoky Essentials, and Natasha Denona Retro palettes.

The Prada Dimensions Palette in B03 Mahogany offers a unique color story of warm, rich, reddish-browns. The reviewer found it applies true to pan, creating deep, buildable looks that are not too red or sickly. It's noted for giving an overall mahogany tone that is beautiful and appealing for fall.
The reviewer repeatedly highlights the formula as superb, describing it as silky, smooth, and buttery. It's noted for being highly pigmented, buildable, and not causing any fallout during application. Furthermore, the metallic shade is particularly good for textured lids as it glides on without emphasizing texture.
Initially perceived as a stark white, the lightest shade is actually a dimensional holographic topper with a warm base. It looks lighter on the eyes than swatched on the hand, but never appears stark or out of place, blending beautifully. The reviewer demonstrated it works well in the inner corner, to brighten the center of the lid, or even as an all-over lid shade.
The reviewer confirms that the Prada Dimensions Palette is refillable. To replace a shade, you simply press a small triangle on the back of the palette, and the pan will easily pop out, allowing for new refills.
The reviewer successfully created two distinct eye looks – one softer and one deeper – demonstrating the palette's versatility. Shades were built up for intensity, diffused for softness, and the deepest shade was even used effectively as an eyeliner. The 'white' shade, despite initial reservations, also proved to be highly versatile for various placements.
The reviewer compared Prada Mahogany to the Victoria Beckham Orchid, Dior Backstage Smoky Essentials, and Natasha Denona Retro palettes. While some individual shades in the Retro palette had similarities to the metallic Prada shade, the reviewer ultimately concluded that the Prada Mahogany's overall color story was distinct and unique to her collection, leaning more red/brown and coppery compared to the more purple-leaning comparison palettes.
