Formula Overview
$8.50/0.1 oz. - $85.00 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have "no fallout" and will not crease while "glid[ing] on effortlessly." There did not seem to be a specific callout with respect to opacity, and the actual opacity ranged from sheer to more opaque with most being semi-sheer. The brand's promotional swatches/demo images showed the shades as fully opaque in coverage, though.
The consistency was very watery initially; thin, fluid, and on the more watery side so that it was hard to apply the product evenly. I tried to use my fingertips but found that my fingertips seemed to absorb the formula and caused it to dry down faster, which turned it into a gummy consistency--this was even harder to manipulate and even out! I would recommend a larger, flat synthetic brush or the included doe-foot applicator.
I found the formula to be particularly difficult and inconsistent to work with, and I think it would be best for someone who would use the shades as a sheer wash of color and is not particularly concerned for a 100% perfect evenness or layered over another eyeshadow. They have some tremendous sparkle and shine, so I can see some people loving them for real-life use.
Once on, they were crease- and fade-resistant and did not have fallout for 10 hours, as they did fully dry down, but they easily removed with water.
Note: some shades contain plastic (PET) glitter.

Boy, this release is all over the place. Committed looks better in the swatch and it is quite lovely although not a shade I can wear. They don’t seem to have any consistency in their formula.
Committed is a lovely tone of peachy-gold! Somehow, I have the feeling that I may have something fairly close in my stash because it just looks super familiar!
I have a feeling that the metallic eyeshadows were the ones that performed best, but those with the glitter in them did not. Some really great colours in the collection, but the formula is really not the best.
What is with all the cosmetic companies and the variations in quality? Surely the COVID excuse should be passe by now. And since almost everyone exported manufacturing to China, I wonder what’s the issue now?
Moira’s Chill looked like it was interesting & might be cool with my green eyes, but I am always at a loss with the duo-chromes & metallics. I have a lot of room between my crease and eyebrows. I’m not doing deep pink metallic monochrome up to my brows, and the other colors don’t thrill me. Nor does plastic glitter…
