Glaminatrix Hopping, Martini, Peacock, Lost Woods, Tiffany, Pixie Foiled Eyeshadows
Hopping
Glaminatrix Hopping Duochrome Eyeshadow ($8.77 for 0.06 oz.) is a light, chartreuse green with warmer, more golden undertones and green-gold shifting sparkle. It seemed like it was supposed to have an almost cooler, greenish base come through, but it read warmer green when I tried it.
The consistency was soft, more loosely-pressed with a touch of fallout when applied with a dry brush. It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation that wore well for eight half hours on me before fading visibly.

Formula Overview
$8.77 -
The brand doesn't have any real specific claims on their eyeshadows, but the swatches they showcase show their line of eyeshadows to be pigmented. The exception would be shades classified as "Duochrome Toppers," which have a translucent base, though they are packed with shimmer and tend to show up more opaque as a result (both my in experience as well as in their swatches).
The brand has three primary finishes: matte, foiled, and duochrome topper. The matte eyeshadows, which sometimes are classified as matte pressed pigments, are very pigmented, silky-smooth, and blendable, but they are incredibly powdery in the pan. I was surprised that I didn't get much fallout during application, but there was a lot of excess powder kicked up in nearly every matte shade I tested out even when I tried to use a light touch. I found that the ultra finely-milled formula tended to adhere well to bare skin and was more forgiving of dryness than the average matte eyeshadow.
The foiled eyeshadows are high-shine with soft, more loosely-pressed textures (on the whole) that picked up readily with a dry brush, had good adhesion, and had minimal to light fallout, depending on the shade. The shades were higher shimmer seemed more loosely-pressed, while the shades that yielded more of a metallic sheen/pearly sheen were more firmly-pressed (in comparison).
The duochrome toppers are similar to the foiled eyeshadows, but they had higher sparkle/shimmer in them with a translucent base, so the more it was sheered out, the more translucent it appeared. If one picked up and patted it onto the lid, the effect was fairly pigmented. I had a little bit of fallout during application using this finish dry, so I'd recommend using them with a fingertip or a dampened brush for application.
Overall, the formulas are impressive across the board with only a few shades that were under-performing--and they typically were shades that tend to be harder to get perfect (e.g. matte purple). I enjoyed working with the eyeshadows and putting together looks, as they were easy to work with, delivered on pigmentation and blendability, and wore between eight and nine hours on bare skin.

Martini
Glaminatrix Martini Foiled Eyeshadow ($8.04 for 0.06 oz.) is a medium-dark olive green with strong, warm undertones and a smooth, metallic finish. The texture was moderately-dense without being too firmly packed into the pan, so it picked up nicely with a dry brush and delivered full color payoff in a single layer. It lasted well for eight and a half hours before showing signs of fading.

Totally gorgeous green shades – they are all spectacular!
Another lovely grouping of shades! My picks are Pixie and Martini. Lost Woods is gorgeous, but I have SG Jealousy’s Descent, so this is one I wouldn’t need. And then there’s the stunning Tiffany! But there’s an SG shade I want even more: Megalodon.
