Mermaid Eye Color

I purchased seashell thinking it would be a good neutral color to wear every day but it is actually very metallic upon initial application. It is also very flaky in the pan, which didn’t seem to affect the wear but I have to wonder how this product will age since it doesn’t have a plastic cover to tamp it down or seal the eyeshadow within the container. After a few hours, the metallic sheen wore away and the product that remained looked extremely chalky. It was reminiscent of the chalky white eyeshadow look from the 70s if that gives an idea. I give it some credit, because it did hold up in TX heat and humidity. It also blended well with other eyeshadows. It’s just not what I had intended to use it for; I had wanted a “one and done.”

This shade was my first purchase and since then I've ordered hermatite and seashell, but those are going back. Starfish is a pinky / burgundy color that is pretty universal I think. This is going to give a very soft matalic shine but not as much as the other two I mentioned. It can be applied very lightly for a sheer look or packed on for a solid look. There is a little bit of fall out on application of this powder but it's not too bad. The pots are pretty to look at and a decent amount is offered for the price. This is a brand that I have for most of my make up. Their lipchics are wonderful. I'm enjoying their future skin foundations and the loose powder is great for oily skin.

I have naturally oily eye lids and this shadow stays all day. I even had it applied before I had to rush off to a workout and it made it through! When it says it's crease resistant, it means it! As another reviewer mentioned it's a great liner as well especially in that gorgeous lagoon color! Please make more colors!!!

So glad to use this beautiful eyeshadow it is so silky blends like a dream, I do use this as a liner too and it really compliments my eyes..

These are interesting. You look at them in the little pot and think, "Oh my, they are really shiny". But, when you put them on, they aren't, which for me is a good thing. I can only speak to the Copper color; but, that is how it was. It is a nice color for blue eyes. Four stars because of the price.

out there that do the same for a fraction of the price. I ordered this thinking it was something special but honestly I found a drugstore one that is the same color the actually has better staying power. Sent it back,
