Glambition

Marc Jacobs Beauty Glambition Eye-Conic Eyeshadow Palette ($49.00 for 0.21 oz.) is a warm-toned, neutral combination of colors with a slightly smokier leaning. It featured seven shades with four different finishes (velvet, satin, silk and lamé). The eyeshadow formula is supposed to have “lasting, velvety-rich pigment.” I liked the palette overall, but I wish the deepest shade was more blendable as the rest of the palette was pigmented, blendable, and long-wearing.

A few obvious differences between the new Eye-Conic palettes and the previous Style Eye-Con No. 7 palettes: they actually decreased by $10 in price (they used to be $59) with only a slight decrease in quantity (0.21 oz. vs. 0.25 oz.), and each eyeshadow has been named. The ingredient lists differ from shade to shade, which makes it harder to really compare easily, and I saw a lot of similar ingredients but order often varied; they seemed similar to me just by touching, wearing, and applying with maybe slightly higher dimethicone quantities in the shimmery shades and a slightly firmer press (but not stiff) for more matte shades (so less powder kicked up in the pan).

She Was

She Was is a soft, medium beige with warm, yellow undertones and a satin finish. It had good pigmentation, just shy of opaque coverage, that applied evenly and smoothly on the skin. The consistency was soft, a smidgen dusty in the pan, but it applied with ease and lasted for seven and a half hours on me.

Infamous is a light-medium, peachy brown with warm undertones and a matte finish. It had semi-opaque color payoff with a soft, velvety texture that wasn’t too powdery or too firmly pressed in the pan. The eyeshadow wore well for eight hours on me before fading.

The Most

The Most is a light pink with warm, yellow undertones and a metallic finish. The consistency was soft, a little loose in the pan, so it did not seem as cream-like as other metallic shades by the brand. It had opaque pigmentation that adhered evenly and smoothly to bare skin. This shade lasted for eight hours before fading.

Over the Top

Over the Top is a deep, reddish brown with subtle, warm undertones and a matte finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation paired with a smooth, velvety texture that wasn’t powdery at all but was still very blendable on the lid. The color faded noticeably on me after eight hours of wear.

Glamour

Glamour is a deep black with subtle, warm brown undertones and flecks of plum and copper micro-sparkle. It was richly pigmented with a velvety texture that wasn’t dusty but felt thinner compared to other shades in the palette. This shade wasn’t as blendable as others in the palette, so it took more effort to diffuse and would be better applied using sheerer layers. It wore well for eight hours on me.

I have so many other palettes in these colors, I wasn’t going to get it. But I have three other MJ’s Eye-Conic Palettes (the Green, Copper & Blue), they all look amazing on, I figure I’ll give it a try. Well, I am not disappointed! This will be my “go-to” everyday palette. When I first opened it, the colors look okay, like many other palettes with this color scheme. But once I put them on, I was pleasantly surprised. They look immaculate, effortless and beautiful! Love the different textures, high pigmentation, easy blending, and no fallout. I have never bought any MJ’s eyeshadows until now, but they won me over. I just ordered the Plum & Purple palettes. To me, these eyeshadows are comparable to Natasha Denona & Viseart. Actually, I like them better than V. Can’t wait for MJ’s holiday palettes to come out!
