Makeup Geek Fortune Teller Foiled Eyeshadow
Here are the last four shades of the newly released Makeup Geek Foiled Eyeshadow ($9.99 for 0.064 oz.) shades! 🙂 As previously mentioned, the formula is designed as a cross between a powder and cream eyeshadow, and it’s supposed to have “intense pigmentation” with a “smooth, silky” texture. The brand has stated that those with oilier skin types will need a primer as these are prone to creasing due to the ingredients used in it. My testing showed that this formula creased faster over primers like Urban Decay Primer Potion and NARS Smudgeproof compared to just applying them to my bare lids, which are normal-to-dry. When applied over MAC Painterly Paint Pot, wear seemed to extend for about two hours longer than on bare lids.
Makeup Geek Starry Eyed Foiled Eyeshadow ($9.99 for 0.064 oz.) is described as a “light champagne beige with slight pink undertones and a foiled finish.” It’s a muted, light-medium beige with hints of peach, warm undertones, and a frosted sheen. It had great color payoff that went on very smoothly. The texture was dense, thicker, and very smooth, but it sometimes can emphasize the texture of the lids if you over-apply it. Over NARS/Urban Decay primers, it lasted for five hours; on bare lids, seven hours; and over MAC Painterly, nine hours. Surratt Beauty Soie (P, $20.00) is lighter. Giorgio Armani Gold Ashes (12) (P, $38.00) is lighter. NARS Valhalla (P, $24.00) is lighter. Tarte Champagne Bubble Bath (LE) is lighter. Anastasia Blush (LE, $12.00) is lighter. Urban Decay Last Sin (LE, $18.00) is pinker. Stila Kitten (P) is very similar. Divergent Humble Sheen (LE) is pinker. theBalm #7 (P, $6.50) is warmer. Too Faced Cheers! (LE, $16.00) is similar. Marc Jacobs Beauty The Starlet #2 (P) is lighter. Urban Decay Sin (P, $18.00) is lighter. MAC Summer Haze (LE, $21.00) is darker. MAC Sweet Heat (P, $20.00) is pinker. Benefit RSVP (P, $10.00) is a cream product. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.
Makeup Geek Fortune Teller Foiled Eyeshadow ($9.99 for 0.064 oz.) is described as a “true yellow gold with a foiled finish.” It’s a brightened, true yellow gold with subtle warm undertones and a metallic sheen. It was richly pigmented with a creamy, smooth texture that was easily blended on the skin. It wore for five and a half hours over NARS/Urban Decay primers, seven and a half hours over bare lids, and nine and a half hours over MAC Painterly. LORAC Unlimited (P) is warmer. Anastasia Gold Bar (P, $12.00) is lighter, less metallic. Make Up For Ever ME406 Golden (P, $21.00) is lighter. Marc Jacobs Beauty The Siren #4 (LE) is lighter. Sleek MakeUP Sunset #5 (P, $9.99) is similar. Marc Jacobs Beauty The Starlet #5 (P) is cooler-toned, lighter. Disney by Sephora Triton (LE) is less shimmery, warmer. Urban Decay Honey (DC, $18.00) is darker. NARS Corcovado (P, $24.00) is a cream product. MAC Gorgeous Gold (P, $16.00) is lighter. Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Triptych (P, $14.00) is slightly darker. bareMinerals Remix (LE) is more muted. Inglot #403 (P, $6.00) is less metallic, lighter.

Makeup Geek Untamed Foiled Eyeshadow ($9.99 for 0.064 oz.) is described as a “bright coppery orange with warm undertones and a foiled finish warm coppery bright orange.” It’s a vibrant, copper gold with warm, yellow-orange undertones and a frosted, metallic sheen. This shade had a lot of richness and depth to the color. It was intensely pigmented and really smooth and creamy to the touch. It wore for five and a half hours over NARS/Urban Decay primers, seven and a half hours on bare skin, and nine and a half overs over MAC Painterly. ColourPop KathleenLights (LE, $5.00) is darker. Urban Decay Heat (LE, $18.00) is lighter. Sephora + Pantone Universe Butterum (LE) is lighter. Too Faced Caramel (P, $16.00) is lighter. Marc Jacobs Beauty The Night Owl #3 (P) is darker, cooler-toned. Guerlain Petrouchka #3 (LE) is lighter. LORAC Nude #2 (LE) is lighter. Too Faced Rap (P, $16.00) Makeup Geek Gold Digger (P, $5.99) is less shimmery, lighter. Guerlain Crazy Paris #1 (LE) is lighter. MAC Amber Lights (P, $16.00) is darker. Le Metier de Beaute Goldstone (P, $30.00) is less metallic. bareMinerals Connoisseur (LE) is darker. bareMinerals Louder (LE) is darker, more muted. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.
Makeup Geek Charmed Foiled Eyeshadow ($9.99 for 0.064 oz.) is described as a “muted silvery light olive with taupe undertones and a foiled finish.” It’s a dirty, green-ish pewter with warm, khaki undertones and a metallic sheen. It had fairly good color payoff, but it wasn’t as opaque as other shades in the launch. The texture was soft, creamy, and blendable on the skin. On me, it lasted for five hours over NARS/Urban Decay Primer Potion, seven and a half hours over bare skin, and nine hours over MAC Painterly. This was one of the more unique shades in the collection. Giorgio Armani Onyx (05) (P, $38.00) is darker, cream. Chanel Tisse Fantaisie #3 (LE) is darker, less shimmery. ColourPop Snow Flurry (P, $5.00) is lighter. Kat Von D Division (LE) is darker. Hello Kitty Cookie (LE) is slightly warmer. Kat Von D Melancholia (P) is darker. Dior Constellation (864) #2 (LE) is lighter. MAC Cakeshop (LE) is a cream product. See comparison swatches / compare dupes side-by-side.

Oooh, I like Charmed! I prefer Colour Pop’s formula for my oily lids, but I tried to buy the dupe Snow Flurry on their website and couldn’t find it, so maybe it was LE or discontinued 🙁
It was LE! 🙁 I changed it on the product listing. Sorry about that, Katherine!!
These are stunning but I think they may be too metallic for my taste and the colors released are much more bold (in my opinion) this time. Thank you for the dupe lists! Since I already own most of them in other eyeshadows, I don’t think I really need them..
I can totally understand them being too metallic 🙂
Charmed will work well for inner third on me. I love it. Makes me think of a more shimmery version of Vex. It seems to traverse between warm and cool. Love shades like this that work equally well with both warm and cool eye looks.
Yes — it’s that type of shade that has more of a warm-toned undertone but a cooler over-tone!
I like Starry Eyed… it reminds me of Stila Kitten.
It is similar!
OK ! I think you twisted my arm! lol! Although, I own dupes for all 3 of these, I can see these are pretty unique. Maybe there is something that was required in the formulation that is the reason that they require a solid base for extended wear. I guess, my Mac Painterly may actually get some use. I’m glad she keeps her stuff permanent too and reasonably priced. So, I think when the time is right, I will be adding some MUG shadows and may as well throw in those blushes on my wish list. Love the looks!
Poor Painterly needs some friends, lol! 😉
I love the look you did with these & the Orange MJ liner is perfect! I want to get that color, its so pretty. I’m waiting a bit to get these because there have been so many new products coming out. At least these aren’t LE so i have time 🙂
Thank you! 🙂
Charmed is such a gorgeous, interesting colour. The others are pretty, but Charmed is my favourite. For $10 – this is great quality.
It is! I do wish it wore better over your standard primer though, lol!
I definitelly need Charmed in my life. Even though it’s not an “A,” it did well enough. I just love the color.
It is a very pretty shade! 🙂
Starry eyed reminds me of NYX Jumbo Pencil in Yogurt!
Untamed remains a favorite! It’s so rich, I love that.
I love the colourful looks you did using the foiled eyeshadows.
I like Charmed a lot, It’s not like anything I have.
As these are permanent I can wait a bit, as this month is heavy on the bills.
I really like Charmed!
Charmed is such a beautiful, unusual shade, I see since most of the dupes are LE perhaps brands think it’s too “much” to be offered permanently. This is great for Makeup Geek, i love that she started out reviewing products & has created her own niche 🙂
How does Charmed compair to MAC modern pewter?

Untaaaaamed! I like Charmed too, but definitely Untamed.
