101 Grounded

Cle de Peau 101 Grounded Eye Color Duo ($55.00 for 0.15 oz.) contains a medium-dark brown and golden peach. The formula is supposed to have a “silky” feel, be moisturizing on the lids (though it is a powder formula), long-wearing, and have true-to-pan color. I like the effect of Cle de Peau’s eyeshadows on the lid; I think that “moisturizing” aspect of them makes them sit well on the lid as time passes, where they meld well to bare skin. I find that they can be semi-opaque to opaque, more buildable and very easy to wear as a wash of color, if desired. The eyeshadows are rose-scented, though I only just noticed the scent with the compact open but not applied.

As a FYI, Cle de Peau sells the duos as a pan-only, which is not magentized but you could stick a magnet to it so it would adhere to most freestyle palettes, or purchase their case for $25.

Grounded (Left)

Grounded (Left) is a medium-dark brown with warm, reddish undertones and a satin finish. It had opaque color coverage with a soft, slightly dusty texture that had a tendency sheer out a little more readily than ideal but can be built back up for opaque coverage. It was easy to blend and diffuse along the skin. On me, it wore well for seven and a half hours before fading.

Grounded (Right)

Grounded (Right) is a soft, golden peach with warm undertones and a frosted sheen. The pigmentation was rich and opaque, while the texture was soft, smooth, and blendable without being dusty or powdery. It applied evenly to bare skin and didn’t sheer until unless that was my goal, so it was versatile: I could wear it as an all-over lid color or just as a sheer wash. The color stayed on well for seven and a half hours on me.

I’ve had eye on a CdP peach eyeshadow for some time now, so may check this out as well whenever I can get to their counter. It’ll will have to be amazing for this price, but then perhaps it will be; I know many posters here are fans.
