Kiln Lite

Clionadh Kiln Lite Jewelled Lite Multichrome Eyeshadow ($19.00 for 0.052 oz.) has a soft, grayer base that shifted from deeper burgundy to pinky-red to dark gold to green with a smidgen of blue-green at the very extreme end of the shift. The finish was finely shimmered but heavily shimmered despite of the particle size, while it was highly reflective as well.

The Lite version is lighter, almost like a faded version, and it was more shimmery.

Opaque pigmentation
Smooth, lightly creamy, very finely-milled
Slightly softer press but not prone to fallout or breakage
Picked up and applied evenly, blended out well
Long-wearing (9 hours before fading noticeably)

Formula Overview

$19.00/0.05 oz. - $380.00 Per Ounce

The formula is designed to have a gray base while still retaining an intense shift; the gray base is supposed to--and does--make it easier to diffuse and blend out the eyeshadow without muting the shifts while doing so. The Lites are also "brighter and more shimmering," which I found more accurate. They had a more reflective finish and were a bit more textured as a result of the shimmer, but I'd describe them as glowing whereas the original Jewelled shades had a smoother sheen.

The consistency was smooth to the touch, dense without being firmly-pressed in the pan, and easy to pick up with a brush for an even application on the lid. I had no trouble applying or diffusing the edges, and they were easier to diffuse/blend out along those edges than the black-based multichromes. The eyeshadows were intensely pigmented.

On me, the formula lasted closer to nine hours on average before showing signs of fading. There was minimal fallout, if that, during application but not during wear.

Sandblast Lite

Clionadh Sand Blast Lite Jewelled Lite Multichrome Eyeshadow ($19.00 for 0.052 oz.) has a dark, grayish base with multichrome shift that went from faded, rusty red to soft copper to warm gold to green paired with a smooth, sparkling finish that had high sheen.

The Lite version was about two to three steps lighter and had a more “faded” quality along with being less bronze at the more extreme end (with red coming through more noticeably). The finish was more noticeably shimmery, which gave it a brighter effect.

Flame-Blown Lite

Clionadh Flame-Blown Lite Jewelled Lite Multichrome Eyeshadow ($19.00 for 0.052 oz.) has a mid-tone, gray base with a multichrome shift that went from violet purple to warmer, pink-leaning purple to murky olive to darker, emerald green. The eyeshadow had an intensely metallic finish with fine sparkle throughout.

The Lite version had very similar shifts but appeared three steps lighter and didn’t go as violet at the most extreme edge of the shift.

Smoulder Lite

Clionadh Smoulder Lite Jewelled Lite Multichrome Eyeshadow ($19.00 for 0.052 oz.) had a soft, grayer base with multichrome shift that went from rich, pinky-purple to orange to gold to warmer green to cooler-toned green paired with a highly shimmered, metallic finish.

The Lite version was very, very similar in shifts; it just ended up being less black-based and lighter overall, and the impact of the higher shimmer content gave it a glowier look when blended out.

Forge Lite

Clionadh Forge Lite Jewelled Lite Multichrome Eyeshadow ($19.00 for 0.052 oz.)has a mid-tone, gray base with multichrome shift that went from rich, chocolaty bronze to coppery-orange to peach to olive green to truer green. It had a very intense, metallic finish.

The Lite version had very similar shifts, though I’d say it was a touch less shifty, and appeared two to three steps lighter.

Clionadh Deep Sea Treasures Palette Swatches

Christine — Tue, 23 May 2023 21:00:00 +0000

Clionadh Deep Sea Treasures Palette is a new, limited edition eight-shade multichrome eyeshadow palette. (It will be restocked a few times, though.) If you’re someone newer to multichromes, it might be a nice way to try several from the brand at once in an edited set. Review to come, but my initial impressions/testing made the eyeshadows seem in line with the brand’s past multichrome eyeshadows I’ve tried (aka very nice!).

Clionadh Fuse Highlighter Review & Swatches

Christine — Thu, 01 Dec 2022 15:00:00 +0000

Fuse

Clionadh Fuse Powder Highlighter ($15.00 for 0.21 oz.) has a transparent base with shimmer that seemed to shift slightly between cooler pink and warmer pink, looking almost peachy at certain angles. It had a luminous sheen that didn’t emphasize my skin’s natural texture. The bluish base was more visible on camera than I felt it was in person, but with the way the reflective quality of the shimmer worked, it was something I’d layer over a blush, which would bring forth the shift more.

The consistency was soft, smooth, and a smidgen powdery in the pan, but it applied evenly and blended out nicely without looking powdery on my skin. It stayed on well for eight and a half hours before fading a bit.

Formula Overview

$12.50/0.21 oz. - $59.52 Per Ounce

There's not much that describes the formula other than it has a "soft, buildable application." They tended to be quite pigmented--semi-opaque to fully opaque--with soft, smoother textures that weren't too dense nor too softly-pressed into the pan. For sheerer or more buildable application, I'd highly recommend using a lighter hand a less-dense brush to do so.

The texture was typically smooth, slightly dense and a bit thicker than most powder highlighters on the market, so they often needed to be really buffed and diffused on the skin. The finishes were often more intense, leaning toward metallic, and occasionally, they emphasized my skin's natural texture when worn at higher coverage levels. They wore between eight and nine hours on me for the most part.
