Marc Jacobs Beauty Shimmy Dip, Copperazzi, Smoked Glass See-quins Liquid Eyeshadows Reviews & Swatches
Shimmy Dip (78)
Marc Jacobs Beauty Shimmy Dip (78) See-quins Glam Glitter Liquid Eyeshadow ($26.00 for 0.19 oz.) is a light gold with moderate, warm yellow undertones and flecks of sparkle over a metallic finish. It had semi-sheer color coverage that could be built up to medium to semi-opaque coverage, but I’d recommend applying no more than two layers as the product added noticeable texture and looked “chunky” close-up.
From a normal viewing distance, one might notice, but this particular shade likely would work better as a layering option or as a wash of gold sparkle/shimmer all-over the lid. The consistency was lightweight, airy, and mousse-like with a cool, wet feel once it came into contact with my lid. It dried down within 15 seconds, and from there, it didn’t fade, crease, or have fallout for 12 hours.

Formula Overview
$26.00/0.19 oz. - $136.84 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to be long-wearing with "all-day, crease- and fallout-resistant sparkle" that you "swipe on and blend" for "instant, fuss-free dazzle." They're supposed to have "customiz[able]" coverage that can be sheered out or built up for "high-impact dazzle." Some shades had more medium coverage while a few had semi-opaque to opaque coverage, and most of them were easy enough to sheer out for more of a wash of color.
The doe-foot applicator was comfortable to use but tended to over-apply the product, so I'd recommend using a separate tool to pick up product off the doe-foot applicator and then using that separate tool to apply the product to the eye area. The texture was more of a whipped mousse--airy but wet--that was quick to dry down to a long-wearing, crease- and transfer-resistant formula that didn't suffer from fallout. I think if you were someone who accidentally rubbed your eye, it's possible that a couple of sparkles or a small chunk of the product could flake off, but I didn't experience flaking just wearing it over a 12-hour period.
As most of the shades had larger flecks of sparkle, they did not always build up in a flattering way; the finish can look somewhat chunky, almost raised or more textured on the lid, when built up (I would not go more than two layers), though in person I find that it's harder to "see" that added texture.

Smoked Glass (84)
Marc Jacobs Beauty Smoked Glass (84) See-quins Glam Glitter Liquid Eyeshadow ($26.00 for 0.19 oz.) is a medium-dark brown with warm undertones and flecks of sparkle over a more metallic finish. It had semi-opaque pigmentation that could be built up to full coverage with a second layer, but the more watery texture made it particularly easy to sheer out for more of a wash of shimmer and sparkle.
The consistency was wet and cooling as it came into contact with my skin, but it set in 10 to 15 seconds. It stayed on well for 12 hours without fading or creasing and didn’t have issues with fallout.

Copperazzi (86)
Marc Jacobs Beauty Copperazzi (86) See-quins Glam Glitter Liquid Eyeshadow ($26.00 for 0.19 oz.) is a medium-dark copper with strong, warm orange undertones and a sparkling, metallic finish. It had opaque pigmentation in a single layer, which sheered out to more semi-opaque coverage that appeared slightly lighter in hue.
The texture was lightweight, more like a mousse–whipped, airy but still cool and wet when it came into contact with my skin–and dried down within 15 seconds. I recommend using a flat, synthetic brush to apply it, and it did not need to be built up for full coverage, so I didn’t experience issues with it emphasizing or adding texture to my lid. It wore well for over 12 hours without creasing, fading, or having fallout.

All of these are really beautiful – either as a stunning stand alone eyeshadow or as a wash over other shades. It’s hard to pick a favourite, but I would say Copperazzi is it.
If I didn’t already have dupes with PMG Blood Moon or Viseart Minx #5, I would have absolutely purchased Copperazzi! It has a gorgeous molten copper look to it that I just love!
