Aura

Hourglass Aura Scattered Light Glitter Eyeshadow ($29.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a medium copper with warm, rosy undertones and a sparkling sheen. It had sheer coverage applied in a single layer, and it was buildable to medium coverage in two to three layers. I tried to achieve opaque coverage with this shade and needed four layers and a dampened brush. My guess was that the drier, more flaky texture in the pot resulted in a consistency that was harder to pick up, apply, and blend out. It lasted for seven and a half hours on me with slight fallout over time.

Formula Overview

$29.00/0.12 oz. - $241.67 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have "buildable" coverage from "a sheer crystal-like shimmer to an opaque prismatic glitter finish." It is a "hybrid cream formula" that "dries down." Each pot has a plastic stopper that sits on top of the eyeshadow, which can be used to press the product together if it loosens over time.

The texture was very dense, felt more like a creamy powder than a cream--like if someone hadn't told me it was a hybrid, I would have just assumed it was a powder product. The brand recommends using fingertips for application, and that is the better way to apply for coverage and least fallout.

I tried dry and dampened brushes to varying degrees of success (some shades were easier to work with than others). The pigmentation varied, too, from buildable to semi-opaque. They were fairly blendable and had slight fallout during initial application. They lasted between seven and eight hours on me with slight, additional fallout over time (but did not irritate my eyes).

Blaze

Hourglass Blaze Scattered Light Glitter Eyeshadow ($29.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a medium-dark copper with warm, rusty red undertones and a sparkling sheen. It had medium coverage applied in one layer, which was buildable to opaque coverage with a second layer. The texture was smoother, lightly creamy, and thin without being too thin or too slippery on my skin, so it applied evenly and blended out well without losing its intensity. There was a touch of fallout when I blended it out on my lid, and then there was a little more after eight hours of wear.

Foil

Hourglass Foil Scattered Light Glitter Eyeshadow ($29.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a light-medium copper with strong, warm golden undertones and a sparkling, metallic sheen. It had a stronger reflective quality to it than other shades, partially because it was one of the lighter/brighter hues, too. The texture was fairly smooth, lightly creamy, but it felt more like a powdery than a cream to me (almost like it was a little dried out already). It had medium coverage applied in a single layer, which was buildable to full coverage with two to three layers. I found this applied best with a dampened brush over fingertips or a dry brush. It wore well for eight hours with slight fallout over time.

Reflect

It had semi-sheer pigmentation in a single layer, which was buildable to full coverage with two to three layers. The consistency was smooth, lightly creamy, and thin without being clingy or difficult to apply or blend out along the edges. The color stayed on well for eight and a half hours on me and didn’t seem to have any fallout.

Smoke

Hourglass Smoke Scattered Light Glitter Eyeshadow ($29.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a medium taupe with warmer undertones and a sparkling, metallic finish. The eyeshadow had semi-sheer pigmentation in a single layer, which built up to full coverage with two to three layers. It had a smoother, lightly creamy texture that applied evenly to bare skin and blended out with little effort. On me, it lasted well for eight and a half hours before fading slightly. This shade had a minimal amount of fallout present at the end of wear.
