The Hit List: Worst Loose Eyeshadow

What’s the Worst Loose Eyeshadow…?
What brand/product wins this category? Any particular reason it wins?
avon loose mineral eye shadow. it has the consistency of flour and it blends right off my skin. horrible pigmentation!
Primarks ones (UK) are really bad, but if i've spent money on it I WILL find a way for it to work ;) If they're not very pigmented I use a black base like MAC's fluidline and then pat it on with a sigma 252 and they suddenly stay and become super pigmented :)
pretty much all the e-tailer pigments. fyrinnae, the she space, etc. fallout, disappears after a few hours and all those 5 gram jars hanging around? NO THANKS!
I did not have any luck with NYX's, sadly. I love pigments but these did not last more than a few hours, even though I varied primer/no primer and using different mixing mediums (and using them alone).
All of 'em. What a mess. I already have to deal with pigments so I can't see myself messing around with loose eyeshadows. There are way too many non-loose eyeshadows to play around with with less mess.
I LOATHE Bare Escentuals loose eyeshadows. They're messy, not very pigmented, and entirely too expensive considering the first two negatives.
I don't like any of them. They're such a mess. I never use them.
Definitely the L.A. Colors loose shadows. I have no clue why anyone compares them to MAC pigments. They are ridiculously subpar and practically unusable!
Face Front Cosmetic loose shadow= dissappear from skin w/in 1hrs and hard to blend. Coastal Scent loose shadow= no pigments on skin and dissapper too fast
In general, I am quite disappointed with loose mineral eyeshadows. I can deal with fallout (proven by my love of pigments) but I hate the pigmentation and the application just becomes harder. They just dont work for me. :/
