Clionadh Cosmetics 66.5° N Eyeshadows Reviews & Swatches (Part 4)
Tree Line
Clionadh Tree Line Metallic Eyeshadow ($5.00 for 0.06 oz.) is a medium green with subtle, warm undertones and warmer, golden shimmer that gave it a metallic finish. The texture was smooth to the touch, creamy and dense without being too firmly pressed into the pan, so it was easy to pick up with a dry brush and had good adhesion to bare skin. It had rich pigmentation that stayed on nicely for eight and a half hours before showing signs of wear.

Formula Overview
$6.00/0.05 oz. - $120.00 Per Ounce
There do not appear to be any specific claims made for the brand's regular eyeshadow range, so being held to typical industry claims (as well as looking at the brand swatches), I'd expect rich pigmentation along with being blendable. The brand has an assortment of finishes, and the price point varies from finish to finish and has some variance within finish as well, but they tend to range from $6.00 CAD to $8.00 CAD, which converts to around $5.00 to $7.00 USD.
The more shimmery formulas were similar; they tended to be dense, lightly creamy, and blendable with excellent pigmentation and minimal chance of fallout. Some of the more sparkly shades felt more loosely-pressed while a few metallics were more emollient to the touch. They typically wore between eight and eight and a half hours on me before fading visibly (without primer).

Vortex
Clionadh Vortex Duochrome Eyeshadow ($5.25 for 0.06 oz.) has a darker, olive-brown base with warm undertones and cooler, green-to-teal shimmer that gave it a metallic sheen. It had intense color payoff in a single layer paired with a smooth, lightly creamy texture that wasn’t too firmly nor too softly pressed into the pan. This shade wore well for eight and a half hours before fading noticeably.

Iceberg
Clionadh Iceberg Duochrome Eyeshadow ($5.25 for 0.06 oz.) is a pale, minty green with subtle, cool undertones and a warmer, almost golden sheen paired with a metallic finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation in a single layer, which was easily built up to full coverage with less than half of a layer.
The texture was smooth to the touch, dense without being too firmly-pressed into the pan or too thick, and was blendable on my skin. The color stayed on nicely for eight and a half hours before fading visibly.

Sedge
Clionadh Sedge Matte Pressed Pigment ($4.50 for 0.06 oz.) is a brighter, light-medium green with cool undertones and a matte finish. The texture was moderately powdery with light fallout during application, but it had good pigmentation in a single layer that didn’t sheer out too readily and was buildable to full coverage. It lasted well for eight and a half hours before fading a bit.
FYI, this was listed as a “Face” shade only.

There do not appear to be any specific claims made for the brand's regular eyeshadow range, so being held to typical industry claims (as well as looking at the brand swatches), I'd expect rich pigmentation along with being blendable. The brand has an assortment of finishes, and the price point varies from finish to finish and has some variance within finish as well, but they tend to range from $6.00 CAD to $8.00 CAD, which converts to around $5.00 to $7.00 USD.
The matte formula is more velvety, dense, and substantial, so a little can go a long way and they are more powdery in the pan. I find these denser types of formulations are better at adhering to bare skin and often retain more intensity after blending, which was true of Clionadh's formula. There were a few shades that I felt were harder to work with and tended to apply unevenly or disappear, though, but most of them were easy to work with, opaque, and long-wearing (around eight hours without primer).

Sedge is beautiful! looks like mountain dew baja blast LOL
What beautiful shimmery greens – Yukon and Tree Line are! Paired with that subtle gold of Klondike – they are stunning.
More beauties! I’d love to get Vortex, Yukon and Iceberg, but not necessarily to use together. Instead, I could easily see each of these being used in very different looks.
Ooh, Vortex looks like a slightly red-based browny green – which I prefer. Nice!
Vortex, Yukon, and Sledge are really beautiful.
Yukon and Tree Line are absolutely gorgeous! I have to say though, whenever I see Vortex, I have to remind myself that I already own it – my immediate reaction is “ooh, shiny, I want”. 🙂
I know everyone is all into their duochromes, but I’m SOO feeling their matte shades!
